Biocatalytic production of chitosan polymers from shrimp shells, using a recombinant enzyme produced by pichia pastoris
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-10)
Chitosan has a unique chemical structure with high charge density, reactive hydroxyl and amino groups, and extensive hydrogen bonding. Chitin deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.41) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the N-acetamido groups of ...
