Genetic Effects of Indica Lineage Introgression on Amylopectin Chain Length Distribution in Japonica Milled Rice

Agriculture, 2022
The fine structure of amylopectin affects rice quality; in particular, the amylopectin chain length distribution (ACLD) in milled rice differs between subspecies of Oryza sativa L.

One of the isoamylase isoforms, CMI294C, is required for semi-amylopectin synthesis in the rhodophyte Cyanidioschyzon merolae

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Most rhodophytes synthesize semi-amylopectin as a storage polysaccharide, whereas some species in the most primitive class (Cyanidiophyceae) make glycogen.

Replacement of the endogenous starch debranching enzymes ISA1 and ISA2 of Arabidopsis with the rice orthologs reveals a degree of functional conservation during starch synthesis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
This study tested the interchangeability of enzymes in starch metabolism between dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous plant species. Amylopectin--a branched glucose polymer--is the major component of starch and is responsible for its semi-crystalline ...

Construction of Porous Starch-Based Hydrogel via Regulating the Ratio of Amylopectin/Amylose for Enhanced Water-Retention

Molecules, 2021
The performance of hydrogels prepared with traditional natural starch as raw materials is considerable; the fixed ratio of amylose/amylopectin significantly limits the improvement of hydrogel structure and performance.

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 ...

Amylopectin-Assisted Fabrication of In Situ Carbon-Coated Na₃V₂(PO₄)₂F₃ Nanosheets for Ultra-Fast Sodium Storage

, 2022
Na3V2(PO4)2F3 is one of the most studied polyanion type cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) and offers great promises. However, the inferior rate capability induced by its sluggish diffusion of electrons and ions greatly limits the ...

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.
