![]()
TypeRecombinant proteinDescriptionLysostaphin, an endopeptidase specific for the cell wall peptidoglycan of staphylococci, is an extremely potent anti-staphylococcal agent. Lysostaphin is used as a research and diagnostic tool. Because it lyses staphylococci efficiently, it is widely used when preparing staphylococcal DNA or other cellular components for genetic and biochemical studies and for the preparation of protoplasts for transformation. Preparation and analysis of bacterial DNA has become a powerful tool used by clinical and other microbiologists in epidemiological studies aimed at tracing sources of infection or bacterial contamination.SourceE. coliPurity97.5% as determined by RP-HPLC.Biological ActivityDetermined by the decrease in turbidity of a suspension of heat-killed Staphylococcus aureus at pH8.0, 30°C.FormulationThe protein was lyophilized without any additives.Physical AppearanceSterile filtered white lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
