General description
The molecule consists of a linear chain of glucose units without any branching.
Application
β-1,3-Glucan from Euglena gracilis may be compared with other β-1,3-glucans and their derivatives to study mechanisms of protection of DNA from oxidative lesions. β-1,3-Glucan from Euglena gracilis may be used as a substrate to identify, differentiate and characterize glucanase(s).

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a eukaryotic molecular chaperone. Its involvement in the resistance of Candida albicans to azole and echinocandin antifungals is well established. However, little is known about Hsp90's function in the filamentous fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus.

Five types of macroalgae from the southern hemisphere were analysed for the presence of β-1,3/1,6-glucan and its immunostimulant properties. We were able to extract soluble β-1,3/1,6-D-glucan from Durvillaea antarctica (Chamisso) Hariot (DA). The morphology of the brown algae influenced extraction
