Abstract
⺠Multi domain chitinase A and a single catalytic domain chitinase B of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were characterized. ⺠Chitinase A was an endo acting enzyme active on both oligomeric and polymeric substrates. ⺠Chitinase B was exo/endo acting enzyme, that can hydrolyze only oligomeric substrates. ⺠Chitinase A, and not chitinase B, exhibited transglycosylation on tetra- and hexameric chitooligosaccharides. ⺠Chitinase A also showed antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum.
