Chitinase
Chitinases (,
chitodextrinase,
1,4-beta-poly-N-acetylglucosaminidase,
poly-beta-glucosaminidase,
beta-1,4-poly-N-acetyl glucosamidinase,
poly[1,4-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide)] glycanohydrolase,
(1->4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucan glycanohydrolase) are hydrolytic
enzymes that break down
glycosidic bonds in
chitin.
