A cDNA encoding a phage-type lysozyme, designated as HcPLYZ, was successfully cloned
from Hyriopsis cumingii. The full-length cDNA sequence of HcPLYZ was determined to be …

Bivalves are frequently exposed to salinity and temperature fluctuations in the estuary. This
study explored the molecular effect of these fluctuations by exposing Sydney rock oysters,(S …

The full-length cDNA coding for a novel invertebrate (i-type) lysozyme was identified in
Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). The newly obtained L. vannamei lysozyme is …

Lysozymes play an important role in the innate immune responses with which mollusks
respond to bacterial invasion through its lytic activity. In the present study, two c-type …

It is well known that lysozymes are key proteins to teleosts in the innate immune system and
possess high bactericidal properties. In the present study, a g-type lysozyme gene was …

Lysozyme as an important nonspecific immune factor, can kill bacteria by hydrolyzing β-1, 4-
glycosidic linkages of peptidoglycan layer, and plays an important role in innate immune …

In this study, a c-type lysozyme gene (BsLyzC) was identified and characterized from a
marine fish, Bostrychus sinensis. The BsLyzC encodes 154 amino acids and contains a …

Representing a multifunctional complex group of proteins, glutathione S-transferases (GSTs)
play a major role in the phase II detoxification process in a wide range of organisms. This …

Lysozymes are ubiquitously distributed enzymes with hydrolytic activity against bacterial
peptidoglycan and function to protect organisms from microbial pathogens. In this study, an …

Lysozyme is an important enzyme in the innate immune system that plays a vital role in
fighting microbial infections. In the current study, we identified, cloned, and characterized a …
