Enhanced antibacterial activity of surface re-engineered lysozyme against Gram-negative bacteria without accumulated resistance

Abstract

In this study, we show a way to improve the antibacterial activity of lysozyme by incorporating guanidino functional groups onto its surface (Lyz-Gua), which could treat pathogenic bacteria without accumulated resistance and shows advantages over commercial antibiotics.
