This paper is the first review article concerning the investigations on alpha-(13)-glucans and their enzymatic hydrolysis by specific alpha-(13)-glucanases. Special attention is paid to microbial sources of these enzymes as well as intensification of their production in cultures, their purification and catalytic properties, and molecular structure of the genes encoding different fungal and bacterial alpha-(13)-glucanases.
