Participants

Reaction Steps

This enzyme is reacted with the starting compound, di-N-acetylchitobiose, whereby only the acetyl group of the N-acetylglucosamine residue positioned at the non-reducing terminal of said di-N-acetylchitobiose is removed to convert said residue to a glucosamine residue, thereby obtaining the intended product, 2-acetylamino-4-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-D-glucose.
