Overview | Chitinase is an enzyme that can decompose chitin into chitin monosaccharide-N-acetylglucose. Chitin, also known as chitin or chitin, is the cell wall component of most fungi and one of the limiting factors for effective prevention and control of fungal diseases. Because chitinase can degrade fungal cell wall substances, it has potential application prospects for the prevention and treatment of fungal diseases. The types of chitinase include microbial chitinase, plant chitinase and animal chitinase. The microorganisms that produce chitinase include bacteria, actinomycetes and molds, and the types and properties of chitinase produced by different microorganisms are also different |
Classification | The chitinase-producing animals found so far are mainly birds and amphibians. Since animal chitinases are mostly inducible enzymes, the presence or absence of chitinases in animals is closely related to their food types, and their production sites mainly include digestive juice, glands, intestinal mucosa and stomach. In higher plants, chitinase is mainly distributed in seeds, leaves, stems and callus. When plants are infected or mechanically damaged by bacteria, fungi and viruses, the activity of chitinase will increase rapidly. |
application | at present, people's application of chitinase mainly focuses on the development and utilization of chitin hydrolysate. In recent years, the application of mammalian chitinase as a potential biomarker and drug target in the field of medicine has attracted more and more attention. |
