Protein-engineering of chitosanase from Bacillus sp. MN to alter its substrate specificity.

Biotechnology and bioengineering - 1 Apr 2018

Abstract excerpt

Partially acetylated chitosan oligosaccharides (paCOS) have various potential applications in agriculture, biomedicine, and pharmaceutics due to their suitable bioactivities. One method to produce paCOS is partial chemical hydrolysis of chitosan polymers, but that leads to poorly defined mixtures of oligosaccharides. However, the effective production of defined paCOS is crucial for fundamental research and for...
