Protein
N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase CwlH
Organism
Bacillus subtilis (strain 168)
Function
Autolysins are involved in some important biological processes such as cell separation, cell-wall turnover, competence for genetic transformation, formation of the flagella and sporulation. Could play a role in mother cell lysis with CwlC.
Similarity
Belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 2 family.
