Characterization of chitinases excreted byBacillus cereusCH
, 2000 Bacillus cereus CH was shown to excrete chitinases into the culture supernatant when cultivated in a medium containing 0.2% colloidal chitin, whereas the removal of colloidal chitin resulted in a low activity.

Overview of plant chitinases identified as food allergens
, 2014 Food allergies are induced by proteins belonging to a limited number of families. Unfortunately, relationships between protein structure and capacity to induce the immune response have not been completely clarified yet, which precludes possible ...

Molecular Evolution of the Ovgp1 Gene in the Subfamily Murinae
AnimalsOGP, encoded by the Ovgp1 gene, is the major non-serum oviductal protein in most mammals. In the genome of Rattus norvegicus, Ovgp1 has been identified as a pseudogene. However, Mus musculus presents a functional gene.

Current Perspectives on Chitinolytic Enzymes and Their Agro-Industrial Applications
Biology, 2021 Chitinases are a large and diversified category of enzymes that break down chitin, the world’s second most prevalent polymer after cellulose. GH18 is the most studied family of chitinases, even though chitinolytic enzymes come from a variety of glycosyl ...

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.The critical transition from amyloid pathology to irreversible neuronal loss in Alzheimer's disease hinges on the microglial response. This review aims to systematize the patterns of how microglia react within the glial context. Abstract Microglia mount coordinated, stage‐dependent compensatory programs in response to early amyloid β (Aβ) accumulation ...

Cellulase and Chitinase of Earthworms
Nature, 1951 LITTLE is known of the digestive enzymes of the earthworm. The presence of protease, amylase and lipase has been reported in the gut contents in isolated instances. Since up to 10 per cent of the top four inches of soil in grassland may pass through the intestines of worms in a year1, their digestive abilities are of a relevance to transformation of ...
