Structural, Thermodynamic and Enzymatic Characterization of <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>-Diacetylchitobiose Deacetylase from <i>Pyrococcus chitonophagus</i>

Chitin is a major source of energy and macroelements for many organisms. An important step in its degradation is the deacetylation of chitin or its fragments. Deacetylase from the extremophile <i>Pyrococcus chitonophagus</i> has been analyzed by X-ray crystallography, small-angle X-ray s...
