Descrição geral
Chitinase is an extracellular complex of enzymes that degrade chitin. Chitin is a cell wall component of Fungi and exoskeketal essentials of different organisms which reshape their own chitin or digest/dissolve the chitin of other organisms (insects, fungi, yeast, and algae, and in the internal structures of other vertebrates) . Chitinases have been detected in many microorganisms and in plants. In fungi, chitinases assist in morphogenesis, to break down the inherent chitin content of fungal cell walls. Plant chitinases help in resistance to fungal attack and counteracting fungal growth, by targeting those same fungal cell walls. In bacteria, bacterial chitinases assist in utilizing chitin as a carbon source and as an energy source.Streptomyces griseus produces multiple chitinases of different molecular masses after growth induction with chitin as the carbon source.
The enzymatic hydrolysis of chitin to N-acetyl-D-glucosamine involves two consecutive enzyme reactions:
The enzymatic hydrolysis of chitin to N-acetyl-D-glucosamine involves two consecutive enzyme reactions:
- The first reaction, chitodextrinase-chitinase, is a poly(β-(1→4)-[2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucoside])- glycanohydrolase, which removes chitobiose units from chitin.
- The second activity is N-acetyl-glucosaminidasechitobiase, which cleaves the disaccharide to its monomer subunits, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine.

Ações bioquímicas/fisiológicas
Chitinase is a 30 kDa (approx.) extracellular enzyme complex that degrades chitin. Chitin is degraded to N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in 2 enzymatic reactions. Firstly, chitobiose units are removed from chitin by chitodextrinase-chitinase, a poly(1,4-β-[2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucoside])-glycanohydrolase. The second reaction involves N-acetyl-glucosaminidase-chitobiase, which cleaves the disaccharide to its monomer subunits of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. The enzyme may be classified into endo- and exochitinase. The endochitinase activity involves random cleavage at internal points in the chitin chain. The exochitinase activity consists of a progressive action which starts at the non-reducing end of chitin and releases chitobiose or N-acetyl-glucosamine units. The chitinolytic enzymes from T. viride are a mixture of extracellular chitinolytic enzymes, which exhibit exo- and endochitinase activities. The major activity was found to be that of N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase.
Chitinase serves as a biopesticide against several fungi and insects. This hydrolytic enzyme is capable of cleaving the glycosidic bonds in chitin.
Características e benefícios
Chitinase is an extracellular complex of enzymes that degrade chitin. It is a lytic enzyme suitable for fungal cell walls lysis.
