Merck - 220477-10U - Chitosanase, <i>Streptomyces </i>sp. N174

  • Item #: 19009978
  • MFR SKU: 220477-10U
  • Overview Native Chitosanase from Streptomyces species. A member of a new class of enzymes with antifungal properties that efficiently catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylated chitosan (0 to 60%). Does not hydrolyze chitin or carboxylmethylcellulose. Acts by splitting the β 1, 4-glycosidic linkages of GlcNAc-GlcN (K m = 29.3 µg/ml) and GlcNAc-GlcN. Its activity generally increases with decreasing acetylation of chitosan. Suitable for the efficient preparation of protoplasts of Mucor and other Zygomycetes , allowing the genetic manipulation of these fungi.
