Biochemical classification of PDG lysins: 1, amidases; 2, endopeptidases; 3, glucosaminidases; 4, lysozymes (or muramidases); 5, transglycosylases. The latter hydrolyze the β-1,4-glycosidic bond to form a 1,6-anhydro bond. GlcNAc, N-­acetylglucosamine; MurNAc, N-acetylmuramic acid; m-DAP, meso-diaminopimelic acid.
