Chitin is found in the kingdoms Animalia (animals) and Fungi. In the animal kingdom, it is found in arthropods (crustaceans, insects, etc.), mollusks, and fish (scales of certain species of fish, such as carp).It is also found in the cell walls of fungi. Chitin in the Natural World Chitin, by definition, is a tough outer covering found on many organisms in the natural world. 2  Most often perhaps, chitin is associated with the exoskeleton of an insect, whiâ¦.
1. The cell walls of zygomycetous fungi are rich in chitin and chitosan (Bartnicki-Garcia and Nickerson, 1962 and Ruiz-Herrera, 1992). Chitin, a polymer of N-acetyl glucosamine, is synthesized by chitin synthase (Bulawa, 1993 and Rousset-Hall and Gooday, 1975).enjaminiella poitrasii is a zygomycetous, non-pathogenic dimorphic fungus. Chitin synthases are the membrane bound enzymes involved in the synthesis of chitin and are key enzymes in the cell wall metabolism. Multiplicity of these enzymes is a common occurrence.
