Chitin degradation by Synechococcus WH7803. Capovilla, G., Castro, K. G., Collani, S., Kearney, S. M., Kehoe, D. M., & Chisholm, S. W. Scientific Reports, 13(1):19944, November, 2023. Number: 1 Publisher: Nature Publishing Group

Paper doi abstract bibtex

Chitin is an abundant, carbon-rich polymer in the marine environment. Chitinase activity has been detected in spent media of Synechococcus WH7803 cultures—yet it was unclear which specific enzymes were involved. Here we delivered a CRISPR tool into the cells via electroporation to generate loss-of-function mutants of putative candidates and identified ChiA as the enzyme required for the activity detected in the wild type.
