Chitin deacetylase (CDA) is a chitin degradation enzyme that strictly catalyzes the deacetylation of chitin to form chitosan, which plays an important role in regulating growth and development, as well as the immune response. In this study, a <i>chitin deacetylase 3</i> gene (<i>CDA3</i>) was identified with a complete open reading frame (ORF) of 1362 bp from the genome database of <i>Diaphorina citri</i>, encoding a protein of 453 amino acids. Spatiotemporal expression analysis suggested that < ...[more]
