Compound Q&A
What are the physical and chemical properties of Muramidase (CAS: 9066-59-5)?
Answer
Muramidase, also known as N-acetylmuramidase, is a hydrolase enzyme. It has a molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa. Muramidase is highly soluble in water and is stable in neutral to slightly alkaline solutions. It is not significantly affected by common organic solvents. The enzyme exhibits high activity at a pH range of 6.0 to 8.0 and is most active at around pH 7.0. It is known for its broad substrate specificity and can hydrolyze the β-1,4-glycosidic bond in peptidoglycan, making it a valuable tool in the study of bacterial cell wall metabolism.
