Reassessment of chitosanase substrate specificities and classification [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 AbstractChitosanases can be used to produce partially acetylated chitosan oligosaccharides (paCOS) for different applications, provided they are thoroughly characterized. However, recent studies indicate that the established classification system for chitosanases is too simplistic.
