Cell Lysis Enzymes

Cell Lysis Enzymes

Browse through our array of cell lysis enzymes designed to facilitate the disintegration or dissolution of cells. These specialized enzymes include lysozymes, nucleases, DNases, and proteases, essential for various laboratory applications. Cell lysis enzymes are crucial for protein extractions, subcellular fractionation, organelle isolation, and other molecular biology techniques. They effectively break down bacterial cell walls, degrade unwanted DNA, and hydrolyze yeast glycan coats. Examples include lysozyme for bacterial cell wall degradation, DNase I for DNA cleavage, and yeast lytic enzyme for spheroplast formation.
