CHITINASE AND CHITINOLYTIC MICROORGANISM : ISOLATION, CHARACTERIZATION AND POTENTIAL [PDF]
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

Chitinases and chitinase-like proteins in asthma
Seminars 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.

Chitinases and chitinase-like proteins as biomarkers in neurologic disorders [PDF]
Neurology Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation, 2021 Chitinases are hydrolytic enzymes widely distributed in nature. Despite their physiologic and pathophysiologic roles are not well understood, chitinases are emerging as biomarkers in a broad range of neurologic disorders, where in many cases, protein levels measured in the CSF have been shown to correlate with disease activity and progression.
