Popis: Acidic mammalian chitinase (AMCase) is an enzyme that selectively degrades the biopolymer chitin. Several chitinase enzymes are utilized by mammals to hydrolyze chitin encountered by inhalation and ingestion. AMCase is distinct from other mammalian chitinases as its activity is retained in strongly acidic conditions (pH
