Distinct cellular and molecular mechanisms contribute to the specificity of the two Drosophila melanogaster chitin synthases in chitin deposition. [PDF]
Chitin is a major component of arthropod extracellular matrices, including the exoskeleton and the midgut peritrophic matrix. It plays a key role in the development, growth and viability of insects.

ABSTRACTChitin, a polymer ofN-acetylglucosamine, is an essential component of the fungal cell wall. Chitosan, a deacetylated form of chitin, is also important in maintaining cell wall integrity and is essential forCryptococcus neoformansvirulence. In their article, Gilbert et al. [N. M. Gilbert, L. G. Baker, C. A. Specht, and J. K.
