text:
N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.30; EC 3.2.1.52) is a mesophilic hydrolase that specifically hydrolyzes N-acetyl-glucosides. The enzyme is found across a wide variety of marine and terrestrial creatures with the primary function of breaking down oligosaccharides in the presence of water. One of the primary functions of the enzyme is to target and hydrolyze oligosaccharides containing chitin. In this chitinase function, the enzyme contributes to the ability of many organisms to break down
