Which enzymes are required for the lysis of bacterial cell walls?
Proteinase K
Lysozyme
Penicillin
Lyticase
While lyticase and lysozyme are enzymes used to break down the cell walls of yeast and bacteria and are frequently present in microbial DNA isolation kits, proteinase K is frequently used in the separation of DNA from mammalian cells and tissues.
Option 2 is the correct answer.
