Properties
Description
Chitinase from Clostridium thermocellum plays a vital part in immunity, nutrition, and other aspects, since it hydrolyzes the β-(1-4)-linkage of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine units present in chitin polymers.
Unit Definition
One unit of chitinase activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to release one μmole of p-nitrophenol per minute from p-nitrophenyl-β-triacetylchitotriose (2.5 mM) in MES buffer (100 mM), pH 6.2 at 40°C.
Source
Clostridium thermocellum
Applications
Chitinase from Clostridium thermocellum can be used in the research of biotechnology, waste disposal, agricultural pest control, and so on.
