CAZypedia celebrates the life of Senior Curator Emeritus Harry Gilbert, a true giant in the field, who passed away in September 2025.


CAZypedia needs your help!

We have many unassigned pages in need of Authors and Responsible Curators. See a page that's out-of-date and just needs a touch-up? - You are also welcome to become a CAZypedian. Here's how.
Scientists at all career stages, including students, are welcome to contribute.

Substrate specificities

GH81 family are endo-β(1,3)-glucanases (EC 3.2.1.39) with diverse physiological roles, such as plant biomass degradation, cell cycling, and enzymatic pathogen defense. They are mostly found in bacteria and fungi, particularly abundant in Saccharomyces, and Streptomyces species. Activity has been demonstrated on laminarin [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], curdlan [1, 3, 5, 6], and pachyman [2, 5].
