AMCase/CHIA protein is an enzyme that degrades chitin and chitotriose and is involved in defense against nematodes, fungi, and pathogens.It plays a role in Th2 immune responses, in response to IL-13, and in the induction of inflammation.AMCase/CHIA Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived AMCase/CHIA protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Human

The AMCase/CHIA protein functions as an enzyme that degrades chitin and chitotriose, suggesting its involvement in defense mechanisms against nematodes, fungi, and other pathogens. Additionally, AMCase/CHIA plays a role in T-helper cell type 2 (Th2) immune response and contributes to the response to IL-13, as well as inflammation induced by IL-13. It stimulates the production of chemokines by pulmonary epithelial cells, showcasing its influence on immune and inflammatory responses. Moreover, AMCase/CHIA is implicated in the protection of lung epithelial cells against apoptosis, promoting the phosphorylation of AKT1. Notably, the protein's function in the inflammatory response and cell protection against apoptosis is inhibited by allosamidin, suggesting a dependency on carbohydrate binding for its proper functioning. The diverse roles of AMCase/CHIA underscore its significance in immune defense, inflammation, and cellular homeostasis.
