Distinct cellular and molecular mechanisms contribute to the specificity of the two Drosophila melanogaster chitin synthases in chitin deposition Author summary In this study, we investigated the specificity of the two chitin synthases in D melanogaster, named Kkv and Chs2. Chitin synthases are enzymes that produce chitin, an abundant polysacch...
