Application

β-(1→3)-D-Glucanase from is used to digest β -1,3-glucan, which is a major component of cell walls. β-(1→3)-D-Glucanase from Helix pomatia has been used fto digest the cell walls of C. albicans .

Biochem/physiol Actions

Deletion of the C.albicans histidine kinase gene (CHK1) improves recognition by phagocytes through an increased exposure of cell wall b-1,3-glucans, which are readily digested by β-(1→3)-D-Glucanases .

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Unit Definition

One unit corresponds to the amount of enzyme which liberates 1 μmol of glucose from laminarin (Cat. No. 61340) per minute at pH 5.0 and 37 °C

The formation of the cell wall in Schizosaccharomyces pombe requires the coordinated activity of enzymes involved in the biosynthesis and modification of β-glucans. The β(1,3)-glucan synthase complex synthesizes linear β(1,3)-glucans, which remain unorganized until they are cross-linked to other β(1,3)-glucans

The retaining endo-1,3-β-d-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.39) was isolated from the crystalline styles of the commercially available Vietnamese edible mussel Perna viridis. It catalyzes hydrolysis of β-1,3-bonds in glucans and enables to catalyze a transglycosylation reaction. Resources of mass-spectrometry for analysis of

1,3-β-Glucan depolymerizing enzymes have considerable biotechnological applications including biofuel production, feedstock-chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Here we describe a comprehensive functional characterization and low-resolution structure of a hyperthermophilic laminarinase from Thermotoga petrophila (TpLam). We determine TpLam enzymatic mode of operation, which specifically

Plants deal with cold temperatures via different signal transduction pathways. The HD-Zip I homologous transcription factors HaHB1 from sunflower and AtHB13 from Arabidopsis were identified as playing a key role in such cold response. The expression patterns of both genes

The enzyme glucanase from Moniliophthora perniciosa was produced in liquid medium and purified from the culture supernatant. A multivariate statistical approach (Response Surface Methodology - RSM) was employed to evaluate the effect of variables, including inducer (yeast extract) and fermentation
