Gene Cloning, Characterization, and Molecular Simulations of a Novel Recombinant Chitinase from Chitinibacter Tainanensis CT01 Appropriate for Chitin Enzymatic Hydrolysis
Chitin, a polymer of N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc), can be degraded by chitinase, which is produced by higher plants, vertebrates, and bacteria. Chitinases are characterized by the ability to hydrolyze the beta-1,4-linkages in the chitin chain by either an endolytic or an exolytic mechanism. Chiti...
