Structural highlights
Function
[RSIV_BACSU] Anti-sigma factor for SigV. Negatively regulates SigV activity through direct interaction.[1] [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.[2]
