LITERATURE
analysis
-
useful tool for the identification and structural characterization of chondriotin and dermatan sulfates
food industry
-
in Flavobacterium columnare strains C, E, G and H isolated from disease outbreaks, chondroitinase activity is significantly higher in the virulent, rhizoid variants than in the rough variants of the same strain. Temperature significantly increases the adhesion of rhizoid variants up to 20°C. Both rhizoid colony morphology and high chondroitinase activity seem to be needed for virulence and temperature may promote the adhesion of the virulent variants to surfaces at fish farms
medicine
bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells, transfected with our construct and transplanted into CNS, could be a potential tool for studying an alternative chondroitinase AC delivery method
