Achromopeptidase from bacteria, lyophilized powder, >=1,000 units/mg solid

Descriptions

Application

Achromopeptidase is useful for lysis of Gram-positive bacteria that are resistant to lysozyme. Achromopeptidase, from Sigma, has been used for the isolation and molecular characterization of skin and soft-tissue bacterial infections.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Achromopeptidase is a lysyl endopeptidase that has a molecular weight of approximately 27 kDa. It works best between pH 8.5 -9. Approximately 500-1,500 µn/ml achromopetidase can be used to lyse cells at a density of OD₆₀₀= 0.6 over 2 hours at 37 °C.
