General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy eficiency and waste prevention when used in cellulosic ethanol research. For more information see the article in biofiles.

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-glucanases degrade β-1,4-glucans of cellulose, xyloglucan and β-1,4-xylan.[1][2]

Other Notes

One unit corresponds to the amount of enzyme which will release 1 μmole of reducing sugar equivalents (expressed as glucose) per minute at pH 5.0 and 55 °C, using β-D-glucan (Cat. No. 49102) as substrate

A gene encoding a beta-1,3-1,4-glucanase (CelA) belonging to family 5 of glycoside hydrolases was cloned and sequenced from the Bacillus subtilis A8-8. The open-reading-frame of celA comprised 1499 base pairs and the enzyme was composed of 500 amino acids with

Insects and fungi share a long history of association in various habitats, including the wood-decomposition niche. Fungal mimicry of termite eggs is one of the most striking evolutionary consequences of insect-fungus association. Termites of the genus Reticulitermes often harbor fungal

Two kinds of 4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (DMT) oligoxyloglucans, DMT-beta-XXXG and DMT-beta-XLLG, have been synthesized via one-step procedure starting from the corresponding unprotected oligoxyloglucans in water. The resulting DMT derivatives were found to be hydrolyzed by endo-beta-1,4-D-glucanase III from Trichoderma reesei (EGIII) and

An endo-beta-1,3(4)-glucanase gene, Agl9A, was cloned from Alicyclobacillus sp. A4 and expressed in Pichia pastoris. Its deduced amino acid sequence shared the highest identity (48%) with an endo-beta-1,4-glucansae from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius that belongs to family 9 of the glycoside hydrolases.

An improved surface-immobilisation system was engineered to target heterologous proteins onto vegetative cells and spores of Bacillus thuringiensis plasmid-free recipient strain BMB171. The sporulation-dependent spore cortex-lytic enzyme from B. thuringiensis YBT-1520, SceA, was expressed in vegetative cells and used as

Questions

  1. I would like to know if this product digest beta 1-4 glucan or beta 1-3 glucan or both.

    1 answer
    1. As mentioned in the 'DESCRIPTION' section of the product page, under 'Biochem/physiol Actions', this product specifically degrades ?-1,4-glucans. Should a glucanase that degrades beta 1-3 glucan be required, please see product 67138 at the link below:
