pubmed-article:12884086pubmed:abstractTextThe mode of action of two chitinases from the Antarctic Arthrobacter sp. strain TAD20 on N-acetyl-chitooligomers and chitin polymers has been elucidated. Identification of the length of chitin oligomers following enzymatic hydrolysis was verified by using HPLC-based analysis. It was observed that the length of the oligomer is important for enzyme action. The enzymes cannot effectively hydrolyze chitin oligomers with a degree of polymerization lower than four. ArChiA is an endochitinase which hydrolyzes chitin substrates randomly, whereas ArChiB is an exochitinase which degrades chitin chains and N-acetyl-chitooligomers from the nonreducing end, releasing N- N'-diacetyl-chitobiose. ArChiB (100 microg/ml) inhibited spore germination and hyphal elongation of the phytopathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea by 15% and 30%, respectively. A more pronounced effect was observed with ArChiA (100 microg/ml) resulting in 70% inhibition of spore germination and 60% inhibition of germ tube elongation. A slight additive effect was observed, when the two enzymes were used in combination, only on the inhibition of germ tube elongation.lld:pubmed
