Display of Bacterial Exochitanase on Bacillus subtilis Spores Improved Enzyme Stability and Recyclability

Chitin is the second most prevalent polysaccharide found in nature, following cellulose. Amino-oligosaccharides, the byproducts of chitin degradation, exhibit favorable biological properties and potential for various uses. Chitinases play a crucial function in the breakdown of chitin, and their exceptionally effective production has garnered significant interest. Here, in this study, the exochitinase PbChiA, obtained from
