Journal ArticleDOI

An exo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase from Bacillus subtilis B; characterization

TL;DR: It is concluded that the highly purified exo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase is entirely specific for substrates with non-reducing N-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-glucopyranosyl end groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

A glycosynthase derived from an inverting GH19 chitinase from the moss Bryum coronatum.

TL;DR: The S102A mutant showed the greatest glycosynthase activity owing to its enhanced F(-) releasing activity and its suppressed hydrolytic activity, and this is the first report on a glycoslynthase that employs amino sugar fluoride as a donor substrate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Introduction of a tryptophan side chain into subsite +1 enhances transglycosylation activity of a GH-18 chitinase from Arabidopsis thaliana, AtChiC

TL;DR: The transglycosylation reaction to be significantly enhanced in G74W-NtChiV and G75W-AtChiC when compared with the corresponding wild-type enzymes, suggesting that the introduced tryptophan side chain might protect the oxazolinium ion intermediate from attack by a nucleophile water molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of an Acidic Chitinase from Seeds of Black Soybean (Glycine max (L) Merr Tainan No. 3)

TL;DR: Results suggested that this enzyme was an endo-splitting chitinase with short substrate cleavage activity and useful for biotechnological applications, in particular for the production of N-acetyl chitooligosaccharides.
Patent

High yield preparation of dimeric to decameric chitin oligomers

TL;DR: In this article, a new process for the production of chitin oligomers, including fragmentation, partial hydrolysis and recovery, was proposed, which produces high yields, especially of higher (tetra-to deca-) chitIN oligomers.

Journal ArticleDOI

The hydrolysis of chitin by concentrated hydrochloric acid, and the preparation of low-molecular-weight substrates for lysozyme.

TL;DR: Experiments studying the lysozyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of these oligosaccharides showed a large effect of chain length upon the rate of Hydrolysis, and no effect of ionic strength.
Journal ArticleDOI

The gas chromatographic properties of biologically important N-acetylglucosamine derivatives, monosaccharides, disaccharides, trisaccharides, tetrasaccharides and pentasaccharides

TL;DR: A method is described for the separation and estimation of a large number of biologically important monosaccharides including hexuronic acids and certain N-acetylglucosamine derivatives such as muramic acid and N -acetyl glucosaminylasparagine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Separation of chitin oligosaccharides by thin-layer chromatography.

TL;DR: A linear relationship has been established between RM value and degree of polymerisation of oligosaccharide for all solvents used and Ammonia addition to Solvents decreased RF values and increased resolution.
