THE EVIDENCE OF NON N-GLYCAN LINKED MANNOSE IN EXOCHITINASE (42 kDa) FROM Trichoderma harzianum BIO10671 GLYCOSYLATION

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development, 2017
Chitinase 42 kDa produced by Trichoderma harzianum has been proven as a prime compound to be excreted onto the hyphae of the pathogen causing localised cell wall lysis at the point of interaction.

Entamoeba Chitinase is Required for Mature Round Cyst Formation

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
Entamoeba histolytica, a protozoan parasite, causes amoebiasis in humans. Amoebiasis transmission is solely mediated by chitin-walled cysts, which are produced in the large intestine of humans from proliferative trophozoites by a cell differentiation ...

Characterization of Extracellular Chitinase from Bacterial Isolate 99 and Enterobacter sp. G-1 from Matsue City, Japan

Microbiology Indonesia, 2010
One hundred and twenty isolates of chitosanase producing bacteria were screened from water and soil from localies around Matsue city, Japan. In previous experiments, four isolates (isolates 96, 97, 99, and 100 strain ) were analyzed for their chitosanase

Overexpression of chitinase PbChia1 from Plasmodiophora brassicae improves broad-spectrum disease resistance of Arabidopsis

Virulence, 2023
Chitinase plays an important role in plant resistance against chitin-containing pathogens through hydrolysis of chitin. Clubroot caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae is a major disease for cruciferous crops and vegetables worldwide.

CHI3L1 polymorphisms, cord blood YKL-40 levels and later asthma development [PDF]

, 2016
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in chitinase 3-like 1 (CHI3L1), the gene encoding YKL-40, and increased serum YKL-40 levels are associated with severe forms of asthma. It has never been addressed whether SNPs in CHI3L1 and cord blood YKL-40 levels

Chitinase boosts endoplasmic reticulum stress and triggers apoptosis and autophagy in a hepatocellular carcinoma rat model

Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine
Objective: To assess the antitumor activity of the novel chitinase produced by fermented, isolated Trichoderma viride in a hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) male rat model. Methods: Diethyl-nitrosamine induction combined with ionizing radiation exposure was

Glucanases and Chitinases

, 2019
In many yeast and fungi, β-(1,3)-glucan and chitin are essential components of the cell wall, an important structure that surrounds cells and which is responsible for their mechanical protection and necessary for maintaining the cellular shape. In addition, the cell wall is a dynamic structure that needs to be remodelled along with the different phases
