Effects of β-Glucans from Aureobasidium pullulans on Cucumber Mosaic Virus Infection in Chili Pepper [PDF]
Research in Plant Disease, 2021 Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), the most prevalent virus in chili pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), negatively affects chili pepper production in South Korea. In this study, foliar spraying with β-glucans obtained from the mycelial walls of the yeast-like fungus

β-glucans: a potential source for maintaining gut microbiota and the immune system
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023 The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract holds a complex and dynamic population of microbial communities, which exerts a marked influence on the host physiology during homeostasis and disease conditions.

β-Glucans Production of Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Using Tofu Waste as Animal Feed Supplement
Biosaintifika: Journal of Biology & Biology Education, 2021 Tofu industrial waste has the potential to become contaminant when it is not maximum processed, so it needs appropriate treatment to minimize the occurrence of pollution. β-Glucans can be produced from the yeast cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.As a feed supplement, β-Glucans have been used for an immunostimulant because it can increase the ...

Bacterial α-glucan phosphorylases [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1999 Although glycogen and other α-1,4-d-glucan storage polysaccharides are present in many bacteria, only few glucan phosphorylases from bacteria have been identified and characterised on the protein or gene level. All bacterial phosphorylases follow the same catalytic mechanisms as their plant and vertebrate counterparts, but differ considerably in terms ...

Effect of papulacandin B on β-glucan synthesis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1983 The antifungal antibiotic papulacandin β inhibited B(1,3)glucan-synthase activity, in vitro, from Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Levels of β(1,3)glucan-synthase from antibiotic-treated cultures were lower than the control cultures whereas mannan-synthase and β(1,3)glucanase activities were almost unaffected.

ULTRASOUND-ASSISTED AND ENZYMATIC-BASED METHOD FOR ISOLATION OF β-GLUCANS FROM OAT BRAN [PDF]
Biotechnologia Acta, 2023 β-Glucans are a group of non-starchy polysaccharides, or (1,3),(1,4)-β-D-glucans, that can be found in the cell walls of several species of bacteria, algae, lichens, fungi, and cereal grains.

The role of ruminal carboxymethylcellulases in the degradation of β-glucans from cereal grain [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 1998 The non-cellulolytic ruminal bacterium, Prevotella bryantii, grew rapidly on water soluble β-glucans, but a mutant deficient in carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) activity could not. Native activity gels prepared with CMC and β-glucan indicated that the CMCase and β-glucanase activities migrated at similar rates. When a plasmid carrying the P.

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 β-glucans are a diverse group of polysaccharides composed of β-1,3 or β-(1,3-1,4) linked glucose monomers. They are mainly synthesized by fungi, plants, seaweed and bacteria, where they carry out structural, protective and energy storage roles.
