Application
Micrococcus lysodeikticus ATCC No. 4698 has been used in a study to assess lysozyme separation by hollow-fibre ultrafiltration. It has also been used in a study to investigate the encapsulation of protein drugs in biodegradable microparticles.
Lysozyme lysates harvested from cultures of Micrococcus lysodeikticus were attached to sepharose and used for affinity chromatography to isolate various bacteriolytic enzymes.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Micrococcus luetus is a Gram-positive bacteria that is identified by the release of yellow water-insoluble pigments. This species requires succinic acid for its growth and is found to be susceptible to β-lytic metalloendopeptidase lyses by Lysobacter enzymogenes. Its membrane includes enzymes that participate in the prenylation reactions by utilizing prenyl pyrophosphates as donors. M. luteus is known to be used for cloning the cis-prenyl transferase gene.
Quality
Contains polynucleotide phosphorylase.
Unit Definition
One unit will lyse 0.6 μg of Micrococcus lysodeikticus per minute by turbidimetric detection at 600 nm when suspended in buffer at pH 6.2 at 25 °C.
