CHITMOD targets a fungal chitinase (Cht3) with remarkable stability and proposes the production of new AI-drive chimeric Cht3 variants to be applied in medical, biocontrol, and waste management. It is based on previous team research and inclusion of international experts with complementary knowledge and skills to ensure the successful implementation of Cht3 variants as biopesticides and efficient chitinous waste converters.(DOI: 10.54499/2023.18084.ICDT)
