| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, molecular mechanism of Clostridium perfringens specific lytic enzyme (Psm, Acp, CPE 1138) and its application study were carried out. The species specificity of Psm was found to be in its cell wall binding domain. In addition, enteric coarted preparations of Psm showed some effect on C. perfringens in the intestine. Furthermore, in this study, it was clarified that the catalytic domain of Acp adopts a crescent structure composed of three subdomains, and revealed that the reaction mechanism is Neighboring - group mechanism. In addition, the catalytic domain and cell wall binding domain of CPE 1138 were identified. Furthermore, crystals of the catalytic domain of CPE 1138 were obtained, and data with resolution of 2.0 angstroms was successfully obtained by X-ray structural analysis. Currently, this structural analysis is carried out.
