Properties
Description
Exo-1,3-β-D-glucanase from Trichoderma virens, an exoglycosidase, is responsible for hydrolyzing glucose units from the non-reducing ends of (1,3)-β-D-glucans to give rise to α-glucose.
Molecular Weight
81.7 kDa
Unit Definition
One unit of Exo-1,3-β-glucanase activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to release one µmole of glucose-reducing sugar equivalents per minute from laminarin (5 mg/mL) in sodium acetate buffer (100 mM), pH 4.5.
Source
Trichoderma virens
Applications
Exo-1,3-β-D-glucanase from Trichoderma virens can be used in carbohydrate research and feed industries.
