Chitinases and chitinase-like proteins in asthma

open access: yesSeminars in Immunology, 2023
Despite the lack of endogenous chitin synthesis, mammalian genomes encode two enzymatically active true chitinases (chitotriosidase and acidic mammalian chitinase) and a variable number of chitinase-like proteins (CLPs) that have no enzyme activity but bind chitin.

Bovine Serum Chitinase [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1979
1. A glycol-chitin-splitting enzyme without lysozyme (muramidase) activity has been found in calf serum. The enzyme also degrades colloidal chitin and is thus a true chitinase, 1,4-beta-poly-N-acetylglucosaminidase, without exo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase effect. 2.

Detection, characterization and evolution of internal repeats in Chitinases of known 3-D structure. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Chitinase proteins have evolved and diversified almost in all organisms ranging from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. During evolution, internal repeats may appear in amino acid sequences of proteins which alter the structural and functional features.
