Reaction mechanism of chitosanase from Streptomyces sp. N174.

The Biochemical journal - 15 Oct 1995

Fukamizo T, Honda Y, Goto S, Boucher I, Brzezinski R

Abstract excerpt

Chitosanase was produced by the strain of Streptomyces lividans TK24 bearing the csn gene from Streptomyces sp. N174, and purified by S-Sepharose and Bio-Gel A column chromatography. Partially (25-35%) N-acetylated chitosan was digested by the purified chitosanase, and structures of the products were analysed by NMR spectroscopy. The chitosanase produced heterooligosaccharides consisting of D-GlcN and GlcNAc in...
