natural crystalline chitin is a very poor substrate for the enzyme |
3.5.1.41 | chitin + H2O |
catalyzes hydrolysis of the acetamido groups of N-acetylglucosamine of chitin in fungal cell walls |
3.5.1.41 | chitin + H2O |
chitosan is necessary for cell wall integrity in Cryptococcus neoformans |
3.5.1.41 | chitin + H2O |
plain chitin is a poor substrate, but glycolated, reprecipitated or depolymerized chitins are good ones |
3.5.1.41 | colloidal chitin + H2O |
