title: Purification and partial characterization of lysozyme from mouse small intestine.
abstract: Lysozyme was isolated from the small intestine of mice by combined ion-exchange and molecular sieve chromatography. This lysozyme differs from that isolated from the urine of mice with monocytoma in amino acid composition, and migration rate in cellulose acetate electrophoresis. As intestinal lysozyme originates at least in part from the Paneth cell, our results point towards the existence of isozymes of lysozymes in mice.
