|
The molecule laminarin (also known as laminaran) is a storage glucan (a polysaccharide of glucose) found in brown algae. Laminarins are glucan-polysaccharides containing 1,3-linked -d-glucose residues with different degrees of 6-O branching and -(1,6) intrachain links. These polysaccharides of D-glucose monomers act as energy reserve compounds stored in vacuoles inside the macroalgal cells . * It is used as a carbohydrate food reserve in the same way that chrysolaminarin is used by phytoplankton, especially in diatoms. It is created by photosynthesis and is made up of (13)-glucan with (16)-branches. It is a linear polysaccharide, with a (13):(16) ratio of 3:1. Its hydrolysis is catalyzed by enzymes such as laminarinase (EC 3.2.1.6) that breaks the (13) bonds. |
