Abstract

Teichoic acids are important components of cell wall in gram-positive bacteria, and teichoicase is exactly the enzyme that can degrade teichoic acids specifically. In order to provide references for further investigation and utilization of teichoicase, the discovery, naming and research progress of teichoicase were described in this paper. Its possible isozymes and functions were also introduced. Finally, the potential applications of teichoicase in bacterial physiology researches as well as in animal bacterial disease prevention were summarized.
