Synonyms

Synonyms Comment Organism
LytN LytN harbors LysM and histidine-dependent amidohydrolase/peptidase domains, the latter of which functions as both an N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase and D-alanyl-glycine endopeptidase Staphylococcus aureus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function LytN secretion into the cross-wall promotes peptidoglycan separation and completion of the staphylococcal cell cycle. LytN is required for proper staphylococcal growth. Overexpression of LytN triggers lysis of the staphylococcal cross-wall Staphylococcus aureus
