This enzyme domain cleaves the amide bond between N-acetylmuramoyl and L-amino acids in bacterial cell walls (preferentially: D-lactyl-L-Ala). The structure is known for the bacteriophage T7 structure and shows that two of the conserved histidines are zinc binding.

N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase  M-CSA #586

T7 lysosome is a bifunctional protein found only in T7 phage. It has amidase activity in cleaving the amide bond between N-acetyl-muramic acid and L-alanine in the bacterial cell wall. It also acts as an inhibitor of T7 RNA polymerase, which provides a feedback mechanism that shuts off late transcription during infection and stimulates DNA replication. T7 lysosyme differs from the previously well-studied egg-white and phage T4 lysosymes not only in having an interaction with T7 RNA polymerase but also in the chemistry of lysis: it cuts the amide bond between N-acetylmuramic acid and L-alanine rather than the glycosidic bond between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine in the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls.
