Claim Text:
1. A method of peptide hydrolysis comprising a step in which the active form LytM is contacted with peptide substrate, in aqueous environment of conductivity lower than 2 mS/cm, and wherein the active form LytM is at least 95% homologous to fragment LytM 180-316 which corresponds to residues 180-316 of sequence SEQ ID NO:1 or to LytM 185-316 of sequence SEQ ID NO:2; and wherein the active form LytM has glycylglycine endopeptidase activity of the catalytic domain LytM 185-316 which corresponds to residues 185-316 of sequence SEQ ID NO:1 against substrate, which is built of at least four glycines in a row.
