CC -!- FUNCTION: Polymerizes chitin, a structural polymer of the cell wall and
CC septum, by transferring the sugar moiety of UDP-GlcNAc to the non-
CC reducing end of the growing chitin polymer. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=[(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl](n) + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-
CC D-glucosamine = [(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl](n+1) + H(+) +

CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane
CC protein {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the chitin synthase family. Class II subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
