Application

Application Comment Organism
agriculture expression of Bacillus pumilus SG2 chitinase gene and its truncated form lacking chitin binding and fibronectin type III domains in Arabidopsis thaliana plants. The two enzyme forms show almost equal hydrolytic activity toward colloidal chitin. Recombinant enzyme in plant protein extracts displays a high inhibitory effect on spore germination and radial growth of hyphae in Alternaria brassicicola, Fusarium graminearum and Botrytis cinerea, while the activity of the truncated enzyme is strongly abolished Bacillus pumilus
