Cluster Size of Amylopectin and Nanosized Amylopectin Fragments Characterized by Pyrene Excimer Formation

Polymers, 2022
Amylopectin from waxy corn and the three nanosized amylopectin fragments (NAFs)—NAF(56), NAF(20), and NAF(8)—from waxy corn starch with a hydrodynamic diameter of 227, 56, 20, and 8 nm, respectively, were randomly labeled with 1-pyrenebutyric acid. The efficiency of these pyrene-labeled amylopectin-based polysaccharides (Py-AbPS) for pyrene excimer ...

Quantification Technologies for the Determination of Amylose/Amylopectin Ratio in Starch and Their Applications in Food Field

Shipin gongye ke-ji, 2022
Natural starch mainly consists of two forms of α-D-glucan, i.e. amylose and amylopectin. The ratio of these two components is not only related to gelatinization, retrogradation, gelation and other physicochemical properties and food functions of starch ...

Toxoplasma gondii Requires Glycogen Phosphorylase for Balancing Amylopectin Storage and for Efficient Production of Brain Cysts

mBio, 2017
In immunocompromised hosts, latent infection with Toxoplasma gondii can reactivate from tissue cysts, leading to encephalitis. A characteristic of T. gondii bradyzoites in tissue cysts is the presence of amylopectin granules.

Effects of BEIIb-Deficiency on the Cluster Structure of Amylopectin and the Internal Structure of Starch Granules in Endosperm and Culm of Japonica-Type Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
It is known that one of starch branching enzyme (BE) isoforms, BEIIb, plays a specific role not only in the synthesis of distinct amylopectin cluster structure, but also in the formation of the internal structure of starch granules in rice endosperm ...
