- W2398215481 abstract "Many organisms utilize chitin as a structural component of the protective cell walls or exoskeletons which surround them. These structures are light and resistant composites with specific structural and mechanical properties which allow them to fulfill their protective role. Chitin, in the form of microfibrils, is immersed in a matrix of proteins and other polysaccharides. Chitin microfibrils provide the high strength which allows them to resist tensions and modulus. The cementing compounds protect chitin from chemical attack; keep the microfibrils separate, preventing fracture; and provide support to tensions. The resulting structures adopt specific forms which are conserved during growth and are transmitted in a hereditary fashion. Synthesis of these complex structures involves the following steps: (i) synthesis of chitin either intracellularly or at the interphase with the extracellular medium; (ii) transport of the chitin molecules to the extracellular space; (iii) chemical modification of part of the noncrystallized chitin and association with other molecules; (iv) crystallization of the unmodified chitin which is covered by the rest of the components. The resulting supramolecular structure acquires viscoelastic mechanical properties; (v) maturation of the composite through formation of secondary covalent bonds among its components, and deposition of different substances." @default.
