Zymography has been used to analyze enzymatic activity and processing of enzymes for many years. We have used bacterial cells copolymerized into the acrylamide gel to analyze specific activity of murein hydrolases of interest. In addition, this method has been widely used to examine and distinguish protease activities using different substrates. This chapter provides instruction for zymography of both extracellular murein hydrolases and proteases produced by Staphylococcus aureus.
