6Lysozyme functions by cleaving the [blank_start]beta[blank_end]-1-4 linkage between N-acetylg[blank_start]lucosamine[blank_end] and N-acetylm[blank_start]uramic[blank_end] acid which is the repeating [blank_start]di[blank_end]saccharide unit of cell wall p[blank_start]eptidoglycan[blank_end]. This means it can lyse many streptococci.
