Gene
PGRP-SB1
Protein
Peptidoglycan-recognition protein SB1
Organism
Drosophila melanogaster
Length
190 amino acids
Function
N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase involved in innate immunity by degrading bacterial peptidoglycans (PGN), preferentially DAP-type PGNs. Probably plays a scavenger role by digesting biologically active PGN into biologically inactive fragments.
Similarity
Belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 2 family.
