Chitinase from Aspergillus niger (food grade) Usage And Synthesis
DescriptionChitinase is an extracellular enzyme complex that degrades chitin. Chitin is degraded to N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in 2 enzymatic reactions.
Physical propertiesThe chitinase was purified from the culture medium by fractionation with ammonium sulfate and affinity chromatography. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was 43 kDa. The highest activity was obtained at 40 °C for both crude and purified enzymes. The crude chitinase activity was stable during 180 min incubation at 40 °C, but purified chitinase lost about 25 % of its activity under these conditions. Optimal pH for chitinase activity was pH 6-6.5. The activity of crude and purified enzyme was stabilized by Mg(2+) and Ca(2+) ions, but inhibited by Hg(2+) and Pb(2+) ions.
Biological ActivityChitinase (EC 3.2.1.14) was produced from the culture filtrate of marine-derived Aspergillus terreus and purified by 65% ammonium sulphate precipitation, followed by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromatography, with 5.16-fold of purification and specific activity of 182.08 U/mg protein. The molecular weight of the purified chitinase was 60 kDa, determined by a sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The optimum pH and temperature of purified chitinase were 5.6 and 50 °C, respectively. The chitinase enzyme was stable from pH 5 to 7.5 and stable up to 70 °C.
