The diagram depicts the enzyme lysozyme interacting with a peptidoglycan strand composed of alternating NAG and NAM residues. In biochemistry and microbiology, lysozyme is a hydrolytic protein (enzyme) that cleaves the beta(1→4) glycosidic bond between N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM). This reaction targets the polysaccharide component of the bacterial cell wall, weakening the cell envelope and enabling lysis as part of innate antimicrobial defense.
