Structural Insight Into Chitin Degradation and Thermostability of a Novel Endochitinase From the Glycoside Hydrolase Family 18

Bacterial endochitinases play important roles in environmental chitin degradation and have good applications. Although the structures of some endochitinases, most belonging to the glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 18 and thermostable, have been reported, the structural basis of these enzymes for chiti...
