Purification, Mr-value and subunit structure of a teichoic acid hydrolase from Bacillus subtilis
FEBS Letters
|November 22, 1982
Abstract:
A teichoic acid degrading enzyme (teichoicase) was purified to apparent homogeneity from a water-soluble cell extract of sporulating Bacillus subtilis cells. A rapid test for the detection of teichoicase activity was developed. The purified teichoicase has an app. Mr = 310 000. It consists of 4 identical subunits of Mr = 78 000 each.
