KEGG Pathway containing Chitinase: Aminosugars Metabolism Pathway.png
The pathway above is labeled for a halophile, haloarcula marismortui (most of the other halophiles on KEGG did not have a reference pathway for Aminosugars Metabolism). As you can see, Chitinase (EC#:3.2.1.14) is not predicted for this halophile.


The only automated annotation database to predict a Chitinase was Manatee. Manatee predicted Chitinase A at 55855...57810. Chitinase A: Manatee
The top BlastP results: Blastpr.png

As you can see, Chitinase A is not among the top hits. However, there is one hit for it further down the list:

So, although it is possible that Chitinase is coded for by this region, there is a stronger possibility that it is not.


While doing some hand-curated annotations, we also found another potential Chitinase-coding region at 72986...74821 (+). File:ChitinaseBlast
