Chemical modifications of lysozyme

Abstract:

The three-dimensional structure of the glycosidase, hen egg white lysozyme, has been determined by X-ray crystallography; the molecule is roughly ellipsoidal, with a cleft running down one side, and this cleft, which is capable of accommodating up to six sugar residues (in sub-sites A-F) is known to be the site of catalytic action, glycolysis occurring between sites D and E. The only significant enzyme functional groups in this region are the carboxylic acids Asp 52 and Glu 35, and it is ...
