The F-1β-glucan from naked barley endosperm, a main component of water solubleβ-glucan, has been subjected to degradation with the laminarinase fromBacillus circulans. This enzyme converts the F-1β-glucan to a trisaccharide, 3-O-β-cellobiosyl-d-glucose*, and a tetrasaccharide, 3-O-β-cellotriosyl-d-glucose*, as the main products. These products, which constitute 74% of the polymer, have been identified by chemical methods. As the minor or trace components, laminaribiose, cellobiose, cellotriose** and two unidentified tetrasaccharides are detected. Overall data show that F-1β-glucan mainly consists of two types of structural sequences; one is trimeric unit in which a singleβ-(1→3) linkage alternates with two consecutiveβ-(1→4) linkage, and the other, a tetrameric unit in which a singleβ-(1→3) linkage alternates with three consecutiveβ-(1→4) linkages.It is shown that this laminarinase fromB. circulanshydrolyses the glucoside bond of the reducing side of 1,3-linkedβ-d-glucopyranose residues.
