Chitinase activity has been detected in female worms of Onchocerca gibsoni. With 3,4-dinitrophenyl-tetra-N-acetylchitotetraoside as substrate 50% of maximum activity was achieved at about 25 microM substrate, with inhibition above 50 microM substrate. The antibiotic allosamidin very strongly inhibited the chitinase activity, 50% inhibition being achieved by 200 pM allosamidin in the presence of 45 microM substrate.
在吉氏盘尾丝虫的雌虫中检测到了几丁质酶活性。以3,4 - 二硝基苯基 - 四 - N - 乙酰壳四糖为底物,在约25微摩尔底物浓度时达到最大活性的50%,底物浓度高于50微摩尔时活性受到抑制。抗生素别洛沙米丁能非常强烈地抑制几丁质酶活性,在存在45微摩尔底物的情况下,200皮摩尔别洛沙米丁可实现50%的抑制率。
