Gene name Alias Species Exons Type Paralogs EC number OMIM
LYG2 lysozyme g2 LYGH , LYGA2 , LYSG2 Homo sapiens 7 protein-coding 3.2.1.17 616547

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene contains a SLT domain, a protein domain present in bacterial lytic transglycosylase (SLT) and in eukaryotic lysozymes (GEWL). SLT domain catalyzes the cleavage of the beta-1,4-glycosidic bond between N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) and N-acetyglucosamine (GlcNAc). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
