Modified substrates may be used in testing the action patterns of purified enzymes. Thus, periodate-oxidized laminaran was used by Smith and coworkers to show the exo action of Basidiomycete (l- 3)-j8-n-glucanase. The oxidized-amylose substrate described earlier (see p. 266) has been used with alpha- and heta-amylases to illustrate how the method is completely general, and applicable to all classes of polysaccharides and poIysaccharidases. ° By use of oxidized pullulan, the endo nature of pullulanase action was confirmed. ... [Pg.272]

Tremella/Cryptococcus. The first definitive compositional and structural studies (, ) on a member of this family of polysaccharides were done on the heteropolysaccharide produced by C. laurentii var. flavescens NRRL Y-1401. Because haploid, yeastlike species of the basidiomycetous genus Tremella formed glucu-ronoxylomannans (GXM) similar to those from species of Crypto-coccus, a taxonomic relationship was suggested between the genera "(576)7 Basidiomycetous perfect states were subsequently discovered for C. laurentii (7 ) and C. neoformans ( ). [Pg.183]

Alkali-soluble and alkali-insoluble polysaccharides from the fruiting bodies of the basidiomycetes Laetiporus sulphureus and Piptoporus betulinus have been examined by X-ray diffraction, u.v. spectroscopy, and chemical methods.The presence of (13)-o -D-glucan, (13)-j3-D-glucan, and chitin was established. Variations in the levels of these polysaccharides were noted in different parts of the fungal structure. [Pg.307]

The polysaccharide schizophyllan is produced using strains of the wood-rotting filamentous basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune. As for scleroglucan, schizophyllan production is tightly linked to growth. Currently, schizophyllan is produced from glucose and available only in small quantities of expensive purified pharmaceutical and cosmetic-grade materials. [Pg.78]
