Novel chitinase genes from metagenomic DNA prepared from marine sediments in southwest Japan.

Pakistan journal of biological sciences : PJBS - 1 Feb 2011

Bhuiyan F A, Nagata S, Ohnishi K

Abstract excerpt

Chitinase degrades chitin which comprises an important source of carbon and nitrogen in the marine environment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the population of chitinases in the marine sediments in southwest Japan. We collected marine sediments from eutrophic inner bay and offshore. Chitin-degrading bacteria were enriched from both sediments. Metagenomic DNA was isolated from the enriched chitin-degrading...
