DOI: 10.1002/pro.4289
Abstract: The Plasmodium ookinete uses chitinase activity to penetrate the acellular, chitin‐containing peritrophic matrix to invade the mosquito vector. Plasmodium ookinetes from different parasite clades secrete two structurally distinct forms of chitinase, one, a short form… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/pro.4620
Abstract: Ym1 (chitinase‐like 3, Chil3) expressed in mice is a nonenzymatic chitinase‐like protein, which shows 67% identity with mouse acidic chitinase (Chia). Similar to Chia, Ym1 is overexpressed in asthma and parasitic infections in mouse lungs.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00253-018-9573-5
Abstract: Chitinases are generally composed of multiple domains; a catalytic domain and one or more additional domains that are not absolutely required but may modify the chitinolytic activity. The LinChi78 chitinase from Listeria innocua has a… read more here.
