Abstract  

Objective: The aim is to screen a strain with high chitinase activity from submarine sediments, to separate chitinase secreted by purified strain, and to analyze its activity by enzymatic methods. Methods: Sediments from Beibu Gulf of South China Sea were chosen as samples. Bacterial strains were screened using the clear zone and DNS method.Chitin binding assay and multiple chromatography methods were used to separate chitinase secreted by purified strain, and studied the enzymatic properties of the purified chitinase. Results: 21 strains of chitinase producers were obtained. Among them, chitinase secreted by Bacillus cereus strain B04 has the highest chitinase activity. A 36 kDa chitinase from the fermentative broth of B. cereus strain B04 was purified. Studies showed that the optimum pH and reaction temperature for the enzyme was pH 4.0 and 60℃, respectively. In pH 3.0~10.0, it has stable activity. Its activity was significantly enhanced by Co2+ and inhibited by Ag+. Conclusion:The basis for the industrial application of chitinase was provided.
