The N, O-diacetylmuramidase of Chalaropsis species. V. The complete amino acid sequence.

The complete amino acid sequence of lysozyme Ch has been established by a combination of automated and manual Edman degradation and carboxypeptidase digestion.(see article)There is a single disulfide bond in the center of the molecule. The enzyme has 211 residues with a calculated molecular weight of 22,415. Lysozyme Ch has an amino acid sequence that is totally different from all other lysozymes whose sequences are known.
