Answer 2

Answer:

Lysozyme : Bacteria :: Chitinase : Fungus

Explanation:

• Lysozyme, a glycoside hydrolase, catalyzes the hydrolysis of 1,4-beta-linkages between NAM (N-acetyl-muramic acid) and NAG (N-acetyl-D–glucosamine) residues in the peptidoglycan of the bacterial cell wall. It results in the death of a bacterial cell.
• Chitin is a polymer of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine units present in the cell wall of the fungus. It also makes the exoskeleton of insects.
• Chitinase is a hydrolytic enzyme that degrades chitin through the breakdown of glycosidic bonds in the structure of chitin. It is usually found in the organisms that either reshape their own chitin or digest the chitin of plants and animals (insects).
• There are many industrial applications of chitinases such as food additives to increase the shelf life of the food. These are also used in the fertilizers, insecticides, and fungicides for the bio-conversion of the chitin into useful nutrients.
• Hence, lysozyme and chitinase lyse the cell wall of bacteria and fungi, respectively.
