About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for CHIT1:
Chitotriosidase is secreted by activated human macrophages and is markedly elevated in plasma of Gaucher disease
patients. The expression of chitotriosidase occurs only at a late stage of differentiation of monocytes to activated
macrophages in culture. Human macrophages can synthesize a functional chitotriosidase, a highly conserved enzyme with
a strongly regulated expression. This enzyme may play a role in the degradation of chitin-containing pathogens.
Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. (provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CHIT1_HUMAN, Q13231
Function: Degrades chitin, chitotriose and chitobiose. May participate in the defense against nematodes and other
pathogens. Isoform 3 has no enzymatic activity

    About This Section

    UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CHIT1_HUMAN, Q13231
    Polymorphism: A 24 bp duplication in exon 10 leads to the activation of an alternative splice site and the production
    of an inactive protein resulting in chitotriosidase deficiency [MIM:614122]. About 6% of the population are deficient
    for CHIT1 activity, while 35% are carriers and show reduced enzyme levels. People with CHIT1 deficiency appear
    perfectly healthy
