Lysozyme is abundant in a number of secretions, such as tears, saliva, human milk, and mucus.It is also present in cytoplasmic granules of the macrophages and the polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs). Large amounts of lysozyme can be found in egg white.C-type lysozymes are closely related to alpha-lactalbumin in sequence and structure, making them part of the same family. In humans, the lysozyme enzyme is encoded by the LYZ gene.arge amounts of lysozyme can be found in egg white.
