Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of using a recombinant antibacterial protein, termed Ablysin, for effectively killing multidrug-resistant pathogenic bacteria. The recombinant protein Ablysin is administered to prevent or treat infectious diseases caused by the antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Ablysin can be widely used in antibiotics, disinfectants, food additives, feed additives, and the like. In particular, the Ablysin protein uses peptidoglycan, a component of the cell wall of bacteria, as a substrate and exhibits bacterial killing ability due to peptidoglycan degradation. The Ablysin of the present invention can be applied in the pharmaceutical industry, food industry, biotechnology, or similar industries, as the protein effectively kills bacteria at a desired place or in a target substance without problems of resistance that occurs in other antimicrobial agents.
