Cloning and Characterization of Chitin Deacetylase from Euphausia superba [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular SciencesChitin deacetylase (CDA) can catalyze the deacetylation of chitin to produce chitosan. In this study, we identified and characterized a chitin deacetylase gene from Euphausia superba (EsCDA-9k), and a soluble recombinant protein chitin deacetylase from Euphausia superba of molecular weight 45 kDa was cloned, expressed, and purified.

Inhibition of chitin deacetylases to attenuate plant fungal diseases
Nature Communications, 2023 Phytopathogenic fungi secrete chitin deacetylase (CDA) to escape the host’s immunological defense during infection. Here, we showed that the deacetylation activity of CDA toward chitin is essential for fungal virulence.

NtCML19 Is Recruited by Tobacco to Interact With the Deacetylase Protein RsDN3377 of Rhizoctonia solani AG3‐TB, Inhibiting Fungal Infection [PDF]
Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.The deacetylase RsDN3377 is recognised by the calcium‐binding protein NtCML19, which enhances host resistance against Rhizoctonia solani infection by inducing cell death and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. ABSTRACT The necrotrophic fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group 3 (AG3‐TB) is a major cause of global tobacco crop yield ...

Effects of Ball Milling, Ultrosonic or Hydrochloric Acid Treatment on the Microstructure and Enzymatic Deacetylation Efficiency of Chitin [PDF]
Shipin Kexue, 2023 Chitin is the second most abundant natural polysaccharide on Earth, which can be deacetylated to produce chitosan. However, due to the high crystallinity and poor solubility of chitin, its efficiency of enzymatic deacetylation is very low. To investigate
