- Abstract:
- ... Basic endochitinases are abundant proteins in Castanea sativa Mill. cotyledons. Three basic chitinases were purified with molecular masses of 25, 26, and 32 kD (Ch1, Ch2, and Ch3) and with isoelectric points between 8 and 9.5. Antibodies raised against Ch1 cross-reacted with Ch2 and Ch3. However, Ch3 showed differences when compared with the other two enzymes, especially in its higher cysteine con ...

- Abstract:
- ... Three constitutive endochitinase isoforms were purified from the cotyledons of Castanea crenata. All three isoforms are basic with pI between 8.5 and 9, possess approximate molecular weights of 25 000, 26 000, and 25 500, and have been named Cha, Chb, and Chc, respectively. All isoforms cross-reacted with antibodies raised against Ch1 chitinase previously purified from Castanea sativa. The molecul ...
