| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Laminarin has biologically active saccharides such as the immunostimulation and antitumor activiy. The laminarin structure differes from spicies, indicating that the relationship of the structures and the expression mechanism of bioactivities is still unclear. In this study, we employed glucanase with a limited hydrolysis activity toward laminarin and attempted for oligosaccharide production. The enzyme produced biologically active oligosaccharides and revealed the hydrolysis pattern of biologically active laminarin.
