The important platform polysaccharide N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) has great potential to be used in the fields of food, cosmetics, agricultural, pharmaceutical, medicine and biotechnology. This GlcNAc is being produced by traditional methods of environment-unfriendly chemical digestion with strong acids. Therefore, researchers have been paying more attention to enzymatic hydrolysis process for the production of GlcNAc. Hence, in this study, we isolated novel chitinase (Escherichia fergusonii) and chitosanase (Chryseobacterium indologenes, Comamonas koreensis) producing strains from Korean native calves feces, and developed the potential of an eco-friendly microbial progression for GlcNAc production from swollen chitin and chitosan by enzymatic degradation. Maximum chitinase (7.24±0.07U/ml) and chitosanase (8.42±0.09, 8.51±0.25U/ml) enzyme activity were reached in submerged fermentation at an optimal pH of 7.0 and 30°C. In this study, sucrose, yeast extract, (NH4)2SO4, and NaCl were found to be the potential enhancers of exo-chitinase activity and glucose, corn flour, yeast extract, soybean flour, (NH4)2SO4, NH4Cl and K2HPO4 were found to be the potential activator for exo-chitosanase activity. Optimum concentrations of the carbon sources for enhanced chitinase activity were 9.91, 3.21, 9.86, 1.66U/ml and chitosanase activity were 1.63, 1.13, 2.28, 3.71, 9.02, 4.93, and 2.14U/ml. These enzymes efficiently hydrolyzed swollen chitin and chitosan to N-acetylglucosamine were characterized by thin layer chromatography and were further confirmed by high-pressure liquid chromatography. From a commercial perspective, we isolated, optimized and characterized exochitinase from Escherichia fergusonii (HANDI 110) and chitosanase from Chryseobacterium indologenes (HANYOO), and Comamonas koreensis (HANWOO) for the large-scale production of GlcNAc facilitating its potential use in industrial applications.
