Polycistronic Expression System for Pichia pastoris Composed of Chitino- and Chitosanolytic Enzymes

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Chitin is one of the most abundant biopolymers. Due to its recalcitrant nature and insolubility in accessible solvents, it is often considered waste and not a bioresource. The products of chitin modification such as chitosan and chitooligosaccharides are

Preparation of Defined Chitosan Oligosaccharides Using Chitin Deacetylases [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
During the past decade, detailed studies using well-defined ‘second generation’ chitosans have amply proved that both their material properties and their biological activities are dependent on their molecular structure, in particular on their degree of polymerisation (DP) and their fraction of acetylation (FA). Recent evidence suggests that the pattern

Cloning, expression and activity identification of chitin deacetylase gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo niangzao
To construct a non-methanol induced expression vector and engineering strain for chitin deacetylase in Pichia pastoris, two chitin deacetylase genes ScCDA1 and ScCDA2 were amplified and cloned from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and subjected to bioinformatics

The Primary Structure of a Fungal Chitin Deacetylase Reveals the Function for Two Bacterial Gene Products. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Chitin deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.41) hydrolyzes the N-acetamido groups of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitin. A cDNA to the Mucor rouxii mRNA encoding chitin deacetylase was isolated, characterized, and sequenced. Protein sequence comparisons revealed

Study of chitin deacetylase enzyme activity

open access: yes, 1997
The present doctoral dissertation focuses on the study of chitin deacetylase activity, continuing the effort towards the desigh of an enzymatic process for the deacetylation of chitin. A new chitin deacetylase was purified to homogeneity from the culture

Plasmodiophora brassicae CBM18 Proteins Bind Chitin and Suppress Chitin-Triggered Immunity

open access: yesPhytoFrontiers, 2022
Plants have a sophisticated and multilayered immune system. However, plant pathogens, helped by effector proteins, have found several strategies to evade plant immunity.

RNA interference of trehalose-6-phosphate synthase and trehalase genes regulates chitin metabolism in two color morphs of Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) and trehalase (TRE) directly regulate trehalose metabolism and indirectly regulate chitin metabolism in insects. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and RNA interference (RNAi) were used to detect the expressions and

Chitin Deacetylases Are Required for Epichloë festucae Endophytic Cell Wall Remodeling During Establishment of a Mutualistic Symbiotic Interaction with Lolium perenne

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2021
Epichloë festucae forms a mutualistic symbiotic association with Lolium perenne. This biotrophic fungus systemically colonizes the intercellular spaces of aerial tissues to form an endophytic hyphal network and also grows as an epiphyte.

CHITINOLYTIC ENZYMES IN THE RUMEN MICROBIAL ECOSYSTEM

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 1998
Chitinolytic systems of rumen Clostridia (usually the most active rumen chitinolytic bacteria) and rumen anaerobic fungi were compared in the present study.
