Description

Biochem/physiol Actions

The chitinolytic enzymes from T. viride are a mixture of extracellular chitinolytic enzymes,which exhibit exo and endochitinase activities including N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase and chitobiosidase.

Unit Definition

One unit will liberate 1.0 mg of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine from chitin per hour at pH 6.0 at 25 °C in a 2 hour assay.
One new 1 hour unit = approx. 50 old 48 hour units.

Application

Chitinase from Trichoderma viride has been used in a study to investigate the differential release of high mannose structural isoforms by fungal and bacterial endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidases. Chitinase from Trichoderma viride has also been used in a study to investigate a hevein-like protein and a class I chitinase with antifungal activity from leaves of the paper mulberry.
