PROTEIN HAVING PEPTIDOGLYCAN-DEGRADING ACTIVITY AND DNA ENCODING SAID PROTEIN, MICROORGANISM-DEGRADING FORMULATION, AND METHOD FOR MICROBIAL DECOMPOSITION

摘要

Provided is a protein derived from Tumebacillus sp. NITE BP-02779 that has peptidoglycan-degrading activity. Provided is a protein comprising the amino acid sequence corresponding to positions 1-164 of SEQ ID NO: 2 or the amino acid sequence corresponding to positions 1-493 of SEQ ID NO: 4, or a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having a substitution, deletion, insertion or addition of 1-10 amino acid residues in these amino acid sequences, or an amino acid sequence having a sequence identity of at least 90% to these amino acid sequences, wherein the protein has peptidoglycan-degrading activity.
