3.5.1.41 | agriculture |
the enzyme is used as a biocontrol agent against a number of plant parasitic nematodes in food-security crops |
-, 753918 |
3.5.1.41 | analysis |
the enzyme can be used for production of chitin particles with only 1% deacetylated chitin which is still rigid and insoluble in acidic environment, but shows highly increased ovalbumin binding, chitosan as well is a good material for column chromatography showing no hydrogel formation |

3.5.1.41 | drug development |
the isozyme might be a good drug target |

3.5.1.41 | medicine |
chitosan is necessary for cell wall integrity in Cryptococcus neoformans. Chitin deacetylases and the chitosan made by them may prove to be excellent antifungal targets |

3.5.1.41 | synthesis |
chitosan produced by the enzymatic method offers the possibility of a controlled, non-degradable deacetylation process that results in a more regular pattern of deacetylation |

3.5.1.41 | synthesis |
recombinant enzyme is used to produce partially acetylated chitosan oligosaccharides from chitin oligomers, whereby the pronounced regioselectivity of the enzyme leads to the production of defined products with novel patterns of acetylation |

3.5.1.41 | synthesis |
the enzyme can be used for chitosan production from Aspergillus niger mycelium waste from citric acid production plant in cooperation with lysozyme, snailase, and neutral protease, analysis of chitosan structure |
