Heterologous Expression of a Thermostable Chitinase from <i>Myxococcus xanthus</i> and Its Application for High Yield Production of Glucosamine from Shrimp Shell
Glucosamine (GlcN) is a widely used food supplement. Hence, enormous attention has been concerned with enzymatic production of GlcN owing to its advantage over a chemical approach. In this study, a previously unstudied chitinase gene (MxChi) in the genome of <i>Myxococcus xanthus</i> was...
