peptidoglycan recognition protein 2

Synonyms:

HMFT0141, PGLYRPL, PGRP-L, PGRPL, TAGL-like, tagL, tagL-alpha, tagl-beta, N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase, peptidoglycan recognition protein L, peptidoglycan recognition protein long

Genomic Location:

Chr 19: 15440456-15451315

Description:

This gene encodes a peptidoglycan recognition protein, which belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 2 family. This protein hydrolyzes the link between N-acetylmuramoyl residues and L-amino acid residues in bacterial cell wall glycopeptides, and thus may play a scavenger role by digesting biologically active peptidoglycan into biologicall...

This gene encodes a peptidoglycan recognition protein, which belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 2 family. This protein hydrolyzes the link between N-acetylmuramoyl residues and L-amino acid residues in bacterial cell wall glycopeptides, and thus may play a scavenger role by digesting biologically active peptidoglycan into biologically inactive fragments.
