Chitinase from Enterobacter sp. NRG4: Its purification, characterization and reaction pattern
Electron. j. biotechnol; 8 (2), 2005
Enterobacter sp. NRG4 was shown to excrete chitinase into the culture supernatant when cultivated in medium containing chitin. A 60 kDa extracellular chitinase was purified to homogeneity and characterized. The enzyme hydrolyzed swollen chitin, colloidal chitin, regenerated chitin and glycol chitin but d...
