Although bacteriophage T5 is known to have lytic proteins for cell wall hydrolysis and phage progeny escape, their activities are still unknown. This is the first report on the cloning, expression and biochemical charac-terization of a bacteriophage T5 lytic hydrolase. | Identification and characterization of the metal ion-dependent L-alanoyl-D-glutamate peptidase encoded by bacteriophage T5 Galina V.

This is the first report on the cloning expression and biochemical characterization of a bacteriophage T5 lytic hydrolase. The endolysin-encoding lys gene of virulent coliphage T5 was cloned in Escherichia coli cells and an electrophoretically homogeneous product of this gene was obtained with a high yield 78 of total activity . The protein purified was shown to be an L-alanoyl-D-glutamate peptidase. The enzyme demonstrated maximal activity in diluted buffers 25-50 mm at pH 8.5. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by EDTA and BAPTA and fully reactivated by calcium manga-nese chlorides. It was found that along with E. coli peptidoglycan peptidase of bacteriophage T5 can lyse peptidoglycans of other Gram-negative microorganisms Pectobacterium carotovorum Pseudomonas putida Proteus vulgaris and Proteus mirabilis . This endolysin is the first example of an L-alanoyl-D-glutamate .
