<p> This domain is found in a family of animal peptidoglycan recognition proteins homologous to <taxon tax_id="10759">Bacteriophage T3</taxon> lysozyme [<cite idref="PUB00009690"/>], and some bacterial homologues. The bacteriophage molecule, but not its moth homologue, has been shown to have N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase activity. One member of this family, Tag7, is a cytokine [<cite idref="PUB00009691"/>].</p> Peptidoglycan recognition protein family domain, metazoa/bacteria
