General description

Lysostaphin, a zinc metalloenzyme, is mainly secreted as a proenzyme. It acts as an anti-staphylococcal agent and is highly stable at pH 4 and 5°C.

Application

Lysostaphin from Staphylococcus simulans has been used in a study to assess molecular cloning, sequencing, and expression of lytM, a unique autolytic gene of Staphylococcus aureus. It has also been used in a study to investigate the sequence analysis of a Staphylococcus aureus gene encoding a peptidoglycan hydrolase activity.

Biochem/physiol Actions

A protein complex with highly specific lytic activity against Staphylococcus species, including Staphylococcus aureus.
Lysostaphin possesses a lytic action against Staphylococcus aureus, which is used to treat antibiotic-resistant staphylococcal infections. It has the properties of enzymes, such as glycylglycine endopeptidase, endo-β-N-acetyl glucosamidase and N-acetyl muramyl-L-alanine amidase. Lysostaphin is also used as a preservative in food industry and in clinical labs for rapid screening.
The antimicrobial activity of lysostaphin, a metalloendopeptidase expressed by Staphylococcus simulans, is enhanced by binding to the C′ terminus of the membrane-associated Trap protein of Staphylococcus aureus.

A gene encoding an autolytic activity was identified in an autolysis-deficient mutant (Lyt-) of Staphylococcus aureus which produces only a single band in autolytic-activity gels (N. Mani, P. Tobin, and R. K. Jayaswal, J. Bacteriol. 175:1493-1499, 1993). An open reading

The nucleotide (nt) sequence of a 2.0-kb NheI-XbaI DNA fragment containing a peptidoglycan hydrolase-encoding gene, lytA, tentatively identified as encoding an N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase, from Staphylococcus aureus, was determined. The nt sequencing revealed an open reading frame (ORF) of 1443 bp

The advent of Staphylococcus aureus strains that are resistant to virtually all antibiotics has increased the need for new antistaphylococcal agents. An example of such a potential therapeutic is lysostaphin, an enzyme that specifically cleaves the S. aureus peptidoglycan, thereby
