ChiB comprises a catalytic (beta/alpha)8 barrel domain and a C-terminal putative chitin-binding domain. The cocrystallized chito-oligosaccharide is inserted into the catalytic cleft from the non-reducing end when digested by ChiB | Serratia marcescens |

physiological function | digestion of beta-chitin by ChiB occurs from the nonreducing end to the reducing end. Chitinases ChiA and ChiB show synergistic interactions in simultaneous degradation of beta-chitin, but not of glycol chitin | Serratia marcescens |
