Effect of sub- and supercritical water treatments on the physicochemical properties of crab shell chitin and its enzymatic degradation [PDF]

, 2015
This study examined the effects of sub- and supercritical water pretreatments on the physicochemical properties of crab shell α-chitin and its enzymatic degradation to obtain N,N′-diacetylchitobiose (GlcNAc)2.

Linnemannia elongata: A Key Species in Chitin-Based Plant Growth Promotion

Phytobiomes Journal
Chitin has proven to be a valuable alternative to mineral fertilizers in growing media. We recently hypothesized that chitin might work as a biostimulant, attracting plant growth-promoting microbes to the rhizosphere.

Chitin-Induced Gene Expression in Secondary Metabolic Pathways of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) Grown in Soil [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACTMicroarray analyses revealed that the expression of genes for secondary metabolism together with that of primary metabolic genes was induced by chitin in autoclaved soil cultures ofStreptomyces coelicolorA3(2). The data also indicated that DasR was involved in the regulation of gene expression for chitin catabolism, secondary metabolism, and ...

Aspergillus Cell Wall Chitin Induces Anti- and Proinflammatory Cytokines in Human PBMCs via the Fc-γ Receptor/Syk/PI3K Pathway

mBio, 2016
Chitin is an important cell wall component of Aspergillus fumigatus conidia, of which hundreds are inhaled on a daily basis. Previous studies have shown that chitin has both anti- and proinflammatory properties; however the exact mechanisms determining ...

Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Cg2LysM contributed to virulence toward rubber tree through affecting invasive structure and inhibiting chitin-triggered plant immunity

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Fungal chitin, as a typical microorganism-associated molecular pattern (PAMP), was recognized by plant LysM-containing protein to induce immunity called pattern-triggered immunity (PTI).

Chitin-induced activation of immune signaling by the rice receptor CEBiP relies on a unique sandwich-type dimerization [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Significance Chitin perception by plant receptors triggers various defense responses important for plant immunity. We show the molecular basis of chitin recognition by the rice receptor, CEBiP (chitin-elicitor binding protein), and following receptor dimerization based on the results of biochemical studies ...

Chitin and laminarin additively trigger wheat reactive oxygen species but not resistance to Fusarium head blight

Plant Direct, 2023
Plants respond to fungal infections by activating defense genes including producing reactive oxygen species (ROS). The fungus Fusarium graminearum causes Fusarium head blight (FHB), a serious disease of wheat and barley.

A method for functional testing constitutive and ligand-induced interactions of lysin motif receptor proteins

Plant Methods, 2020
Background Plant receptors with lysin motifs (LsyM) recognize microbial signals such as fungal chitin and lipo-chitooligosaccharidic Nod factors of nitrogen-fixing rhizobia. It is generally assumed that ligand-induced dimerization of LysM receptors is an

AtCERK1 Phosphorylation Site S493 Contributes to the Transphosphorylation of Downstream Components for Chitin-Induced Immune Signaling

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2019
Abstract While ligand-induced autophosphorylation of receptor-like kinases (RLKs) is known to be critical for triggering the downstream responses, biochemical mechanism by which each phosphorylation site contributes to the initiation of corresponding signaling cascades is only poorly understood, except the involvement of some ...
