Draft Genome Sequences of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium LT2 with Deleted Chitinases That Are Emerging Virulence Factors. [PDF]

, 2017
Chitinases are glycosyl hydrolases that catalyze the hydrolysis of the β-1,4 linkages in complex carbohydrates and those that contain GlcNAc. These enzymes are considered emerging virulence factors during infection because the host glycan changes.

Lennox–Gastaut syndrome unveiled: Advancing diagnosis, therapies, and advocacy‐insights from the Genoa International Workshop

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is one of the most severe, yet one of the most discussed, childhood‐onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs). Dissent among epileptologists on the definition and minimum set of electroclinical features derives from the high etiological heterogeneity within the syndrome, which could make its ...

Utilizing chitooligosaccharides from shrimp waste biodegradation via recombinant chitinase A: a promising approach for emulsifying hydrocarbon and bioremediation

Microbial Cell Factories
Background Hydrocarbon pollution stemming from petrochemical activities is a significant global environmental concern. Bioremediation, employing microbial chitinase-based bioproducts to detoxify or remove contaminants, presents an intriguing solution for

CHITINASE AND CHITINOLYTIC MICROORGANISM : ISOLATION, CHARACTERIZATION AND POTENTIAL

Indonesian Journal of Chemistry, 2010
Chitinase is enzyme that hydrolyzes chitin, a polimer of b-1,4-N-Acetilglucosamine which is the most abundant natural resource after cellulose. Chitinolytic microorganism can be found in  environment like soil and water that contain chitin, or in extreme

Chitinase-like proteins promote IL-17-mediated neutrophilia in a trade-off between nematode killing and host damage

Nature Immunology, 2014
Enzymatically inactive chitinase-like proteins (CLPs) such as BRP-39, Ym1 and Ym2 are established markers of immune activation and pathology, yet their functions are essentially unknown.

Protein nanoparticles assemble in plants, display antigenic viral peptides, and produce an epitope‐specific immune response

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Current methods to control porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, a disease affecting pigs, are insufficient and a safer, more effective vaccine is needed. This study describes the design and plant production of a self‐assembling protein nanoparticle vaccine candidate against this disease.

Chitinase 3–Like 1 Suppresses Injury and Promotes Fibroproliferative Responses in Mammalian Lung Fibrosis

Science Translational Medicine, 2014
Chitinase 3–like 1 protects against lung injury but has a profibrotic role during the repair phase. Two-Face Chitinase Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a devastating—currently incurable—disease where scars develop deep in the lung, making it hard to ...
