Function
Lysozymes have primarily a bacteriolytic function; those in tissues and body fluids are associated with the monocyte-macrophage system and enhance the activity of immunoagents.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Disease Association: Amyloidosis, hereditary systemic 5 (AMYLD5) : A form of hereditary systemic amyloidosis, a disorder characterized by amyloid deposition in multiple tissues resulting in a wide clinical spectrum. AMYLD5 primarily affects the viscera, and the predominant clinical features are renal dysfunction of varying severity, and intra-abdominal bleeding. Inheritance is autosomal dominant. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
