Comments The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium?Vibrio furnissii, is an endo-cleaving chitodextrinase that participates in the the chitin catabolic pathway found in members of the?Vibrionaceae. Unlike EC?3.2.1.14, chitinase, it has no activity on chitin. The smallest substrate is a tetrasaccharide, and the final products are?N,N’-diacetylchitobiose and small amounts of?N,N’,N”-triacetylchitotriose.?cf. EC?3.2.1.200, exo-chitinase (non-reducing end), and EC?3.2.1.201, exo-chitinase (reducing end).
Cofactor
History
Reactions Hydrolysis of chitodextrins, releasing N,N’-diacetylchitobiose and small amounts of N,N’,N”-triacetylchitotriose.
