Lysozyme: Overview

Lysozyme is an enzyme that breaks down the cell walls of certain bacteria by cleaving the bonds in peptidoglycan, a major component of bacterial cell walls. This action makes lysozyme an effective antibacterial agent, playing a crucial role in the body's immune system by protecting against bacterial infections. Lysozyme is naturally found in various bodily fluids, including saliva, tears, and mucus, as well as in egg whites, where it helps protect the developing embryo from bacterial contamination.

In industrial applications, lysozyme is used in food preservation, especially in cheese production, to prevent spoilage by inhibiting the growth of certain bacteria. It is also used in pharmaceuticals for its antimicrobial properties and in research as a tool for studying bacterial cell walls.
