StabilityBiochem/physiol Actions: Lysostaphin is a zinc endopeptidase with a molecular weight of approximately 25 kDa. Because lysostaphin cleaves the polyglycine cross-links in the peptidoglycan layer of the cell wall of Staphylococcus species it has been found useful for cell lysis and also as a potential anti-microbial therapeutic. pH Optimum for activity: ~7.5 Unit Definition: One unit will reduce the turbidity (A 620 ) of a suspension of Staphylococcus aureus cells from 0.250 to 0.125 in 10 min at pH7.5 at 37°C in a 6.0ml reaction mixture.
