In this work, a simple method was developed to increase cell wall porosity and to achieve partial hydrolysis of β-glucan. First, the cells were permeabilized using ethanol under agitation. Then the cells were treated with glass beads to increase cell wall porosity and subjected to an enzymatic treatment to degrade glycogen at 65 °C for 30 minutes. Finally, the cells were incubated at 57 °C for 2 hours to partially degrade β-glucan. Whole cells, permeabilized cells and permeabilized cells with partially hydrolyzed β-glucan were evaluated by optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. From the images of permeabilized cells with partially hydrolyzed β-glucan it was possible to visualize structures named "ghosts", which are alike along microcapsules containing β-glucan. These structures can be used to aggregate β-glucan in food industrialized products.
Methods: acid hydrolysis, enzymatic digestion, cell growth, TEM, glucose oxidase method Enzymes that release or process the structure: A7255-amyloglucosidase Comments, role: β-glucan main chain

In this study, we investigated enzymatic deglycosylation of glucoamylase from Aspergillus awamori X 100/D27, a glycoprotein which has two N-linked and about forty short mannose-bearing O-linked sugars per molecule. O-Linked sugars were modified by treatment with α-mannosidase and N-linked sugars were removed using endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase F. Analysis of conformational changes following deglycosylation suggests that O-linked sugars essentially contribute to the stabilization of glucoamylase domains. Modification of the carbohydrate component by adding 1-deoxymannojirimycin to the culture medium induced inhibition of α-mannosidases involved in the processing, leading to a more complete glycosylation and, consequently, to a higher stability of the enzyme.
