Type:  Family Name:  Glycoside hydrolase, family 24
Description:  O-Glycosyl hydrolases () are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates, or between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. A classification system for glycosyl hydrolases, based on sequence similarity, has led to the definition of 85 different families [, ]. This classification is available on the CAZy (CArbohydrate-Active EnZymes) web site.Glycoside hydrolase family 24 comprises enzymes with only one known activity; lysozyme ().This entry includes Bacteriophage lambdalysozyme and Escherichia coliendolysin []. Lysozyme helps to release mature phage particles from the cell wall by breaking down the peptidoglycan. The enzyme hydrolyses the 1,4-beta linkages between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid in peptidoglycan heteropolymers of prokaryotic cell walls. E. coli endolysin also functions in bacterial cell lysis and acts as a transglycosylase. The Bacteriophage T4lysozyme structure contains 2 domains, the interface between which forms the active-site cleft. The N terminus of the 2 domains undergoes a 'hinge-bending' motion about an axis passing through the molecular waist [, ]. This mobility is thought to be important in allowing access of substrates to the enzyme active site. Short Name:  Glyco_hydro_24
