UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + [1,4-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl)]n most chitin is synthesized by Chs3p, which deposites chitin in the lateral cell wall and in the bud-neck region during cell division. Chs3p-dependent chitin synthesis is regulated both by the level of intermediates of the UDP-GlcNAc-biosynthetic pathways and by an increase in the activity of the enzyme in the plasma membrane Saccharomyces cerevisiae UDP + [1,4-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl)]n+1
