Abstract
In the present work the studies ofbacteriolytic factors from sheep blood plasma have been performed. Three novel enzymes have been identified and characterized. Two of them have a molecular weight 15 +/- 2 kDa and able to lyse the gram-negative Escherichia coli bacteria. The third enzyme has a molecular weight 34 +/- 4 kDa and is able to lyse both gram-negative Escherichia coli and gram-positive Micrococcus luteus bacteria. The bacteriolytic reactions have been studied for all three enzymes; particularly, pH-optima have been identified with respect to the substrate. To identify the enzymes trypsinolysis and consequent MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry studies were performed. The results were compared to data from publicly available databases, such as Swiss-Prot, NCBI, MSDB.
