Cloning and Characterization of Chitin Deacetylase from Euphausia superba. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciChitin deacetylase (CDA) can catalyze the deacetylation of chitin to produce chitosan. In this study, we identified and characterized a chitin deacetylase gene from Euphausia superba (EsCDA-9k), and a soluble recombinant protein chitin deacetylase from ...
