This paper is a review of reportson the mechanism of dextran and oligosaccharides synthesis. The presence ofa low molecular acceptor dextran (3-20 kDa) or low molecular acceptor sugarsin reaction mixtures enables obtaining of dextran with molecular weight in arange from 30 to 80 kDa or oligosaccharides with low d.p., which have gainedincreased nutritional interest (prebiotics). In these reactions, the hydrolytic enzyme, i.e. dextranase, may be involved together with dextransucrase instead ofacceptors.}, type={Text}, title={Dextransucrase of Leuconostoc mesenteroides - Mechanism of Dextran and Oligosaccharides Biosynthesis}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/141523/PDF/POZN271_176826_biotechnologia-2000-no2-kubik.pdf}, keywords={biotechnology}, }
