Glucan synthase of Phytophthora sojae [PDF]

, 2002
Glucans, with the (1-3)-b-glucosidic linkage as major feature, are present in most of the higher plants, in many lower plants, as well as in microorganisms (Stone and Clarke, 1992). The synthesis of (1-3)-b-glucan in vivo is catalysed by the enzyme (1-3)-

Radioprotective Effect of Beta D-Glucan and Vitamin E on Gamma Irradiated Mouse [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Introduction: It is shown that beta-D-glucan is an immunologic system booster with radioprotectory effects. Radioprotectors are chemical components that can alleviate biological damage produced by ionizing radiation.

Immune-enhancing effect of water-soluble beta-glucan derived from enzymatic hydrolysis of yeast glucan

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2022
Immunostimulants play an important role in the treatment of immunodeficiency. Macrophages are the first line in our immune defense system and play a critical role in the immune response.

Viscosity of beta-glucan in oat products [PDF]

, 2004
Oats contain 3-5% of mixed linked beta-glucan, or (1-3), (1-4) â-D-glucan, referred to hereafter as beta-glucan. Oat beta-glucan is a viscous, and soluble dietary fibre component.

Down-regulation of the CSLF6 gene results in decreased (1,3;1,4)-beta-D-glucan in endosperm of wheat [PDF]

, 2010
(1,3;1,4)-beta-d-Glucan (beta-glucan) accounts for 20% of the total cell walls in the starchy endosperm of wheat (Triticum aestivum) and is an important source of dietary fiber for human nutrition with potential health benefits.
