Enzymatic Modification of Native Chitin and Conversion to Specialty Chemical Products
Marine Drugs, 2020 Chitin is one of the most abundant biomolecules on earth, occurring in crustacean shells and cell walls of fungi. While the polysaccharide is threatening to pollute coastal ecosystems in the form of accumulating shell-waste, it has the potential to be ...

Journal of Food Quality, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.A significant portion of globally produced fruits are lost between the farmer and consumer, necessitating solutions like natural edible coatings for preservation due to their low cost and less toxicity. This study aimed to assess whether the combination of macadamia nut oil and chitosan posed synergistic effects on physicochemical properties of tomato ...

Characterization of a Chitosanase fromAspergillus fumigatusATCC13073
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2012 Chitosanase II was purified from the culture filtrate of Aspergillus fumigatus ATCC13073. The purified enzyme had a molecular mass of 23.5 kDa. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of chitosanase II was identical to those of other Aspergillus chitosanases belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 75.

Chitosanase signal peptide from Bacillus subtilis its lead target protein to periplasmic space in Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2016 We isolated chitosanase secreting B. subtilis CH2 and identified the chitosanase sequence. Analyzed the sequence showed that it consisted of 813 bp, including 87 bp signal sequence. The signal sequence leads the target protein to the cell-membrane of the

Characterisation of Chitooligomers Prepared with the Aid of Cellulase, Xylanase and Chitosanase
World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology, 2014 The aim of this study was to obtain chitooligosaccharides from chitosan with better functional properties using three different enzyme preparations and compare the products of enzymatic hydrolysis. Commercially available cellulase (CL), xylanase (X) and chitosanase (CS) preparations were used to investigate hydrolytic activity on chitosan (CH) with low

Expression of Bacillus sp. NCHU-5 chitosanase gene in Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis and the application of chitosanase in the transformation of Rhizopus oryzae [PDF]
, 2014 Chitosan oligosaccharides of hexamer to decamer in chain length perform more potent antimicrobial, antitumor, and immunopotentiating activities, than shorter oligosaccharides. Chitosan digested with an endo-type chitosanase have the opportunity to obtain

Production of Chitooligosaccharides and Their Potential Applications in Medicine
Marine Drugs, 2010 Chitooligosaccharides (CHOS) are homo- or heterooligomers of N-acetylglucosamine and D-glucosamine. CHOS can be produced using chitin or chitosan as a starting material, using enzymatic conversions, chemical methods or combinations thereof. Production of
