CHITINOLYTIC ENZYMES IN THE RUMEN MICROBIAL ECOSYSTEM
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 1998 Chitinolytic systems of rumen Clostridia (usually the most active rumen chitinolytic bacteria) and rumen anaerobic fungi were compared in the present study.

Chitinolytic enzymes of the rumen ciliate Eudiplodinium maggii. [PDF]
Folia Microbiol (Praha), 2012 The ability of rumen ciliates to digest chitin is clearly recognized. We investigated the chitinolytic system of the rumen ciliate Eudiplodinium maggii. The ciliates were grown in a selectively faunated sheep. They were isolated from the rumen and purified by sedimentation.

Studies on the Chitinolytic Enzymes of Black-koji Molel [PDF]
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1962 The mode of degradation of glycol chitin by the liquefying chitinase of Aspergillus niger was invetsigated. Glycol chitin was rapidly cleaved to glycol chitodextrin and oligosaccharides, without formation of detectable amounts of monosaccharide. The enzyme attacked glycol chitodextrin as well as glycol chitin, but the rate of degradation was slower in ...

Mycobiology, 2022 Trichoderma fungi have been intensively studied for mycoparasitism, and the latter is closely related to their cell-wall degrading enzymes including chitinase. Here, we studied marine-derived Trichoderma spp., isolated from distinct sources and locations,

Production of N-acetylglucosamine using recombinant chitinolytic enzymes. [PDF]
Indian J Microbiol, 2011 The pharmaceutically important compound N-acetylglucosamine (NAG), is used in various therapeutic formulations, skin care products and dietary supplements. Currently, NAG is being produced by an environment-unfriendly chemical process using chitin, a polysaccharide present in abundance in the exoskeleton of crustaceans, as a substrate.

Polyextremophilic Chitinolytic Activity by a Marine Strain (IG119) of Clonostachys rosea
Molecules, 2022 The investigation for novel unique extremozymes is a valuable business for which the marine environment has been overlooked. The marine fungus Clonostachys rosea IG119 was tested for growth and chitinolytic enzyme production at different combinations of ...

Chitinolytic functions in actinobacteria: ecology, enzymes, and evolution [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018 Actinobacteria, a large group of Gram-positive bacteria, secrete a wide range of extracellular enzymes involved in the degradation of organic compounds and biopolymers including the ubiquitous aminopolysaccharides chitin and chitosan. While chitinolytic enzymes are distributed in all kingdoms of life, actinobacteria are recognized as particularly good ...

MicrobiologyOpen, 2023 Chitin is the second most abundant polysaccharide worldwide as part of arthropods' exoskeletons and fungal cell walls. Low concentrations in soils and sediments indicate rapid decomposition through chitinolytic organisms in terrestrial and aquatic ...
