Function
[LYSC_CHICK] Lysozymes have primarily a bacteriolytic function; those in tissues and body fluids are associated with the monocyte-macrophage system and enhance the activity of immunoagents. Has bacteriolytic activity against M.luteus.[1]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The reaction of the new and structurally characterized covalent {Mn(CO)(3)(H(2)O)(2)}(+)-lysozyme adduct with NiS(4) and NiN(2)S(2) complexes generates binuclear Ni-Mn complexes; relevance to the reactivity of the protein-bound {Fe(CO)(CN)(2)} intermediate during maturation of [NiFe] hydrogenases is discussed.
