- Work cat.: Vandepas, L.E. Chitin the good fight - identification and description of chitin and its genes in Cnidaria, 2018:abstr. (Chapter 1 explores the distribution of chitin synthase (CHS) genes across Cnidaria ... in Chapters 2 and 3 I focus on the model sea anemone Nematostella vectensis, which has three chitin synthase genes - each with a unique suite of domains ... In the Appendix, I discuss a putative CHS gene cloned from the ctenophore species Pleurobrachia bachei)
- Wikipedia, May 22, 2020(Chitin synthase; this enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine:chitin 4-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyl-transferase. Other names in common use include chitin-UDP N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, chitin-uridine diphosphate acetylglucosaminyltransferase, chitin synthetase, and trans-N-acetylglucosaminosylase)
