From Glycogen to Amylopectin: A Model for the Biogenesis of the Plant Starch Granule [PDF]

Cell, 1996
A major feature of the model we propose is that it gives us access to the third dimension of granule growth. The crystal lamella is a planar arrangement allowing for the three dimensional piling of glucan double helices (Figure 1Figure 1). The amorphous lamella on the other hand will not be planar but space-filling as can be predicted by the synthesis ...

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Contributions of Three Starch Branching Enzyme Isozymes to the Fine Structure of Amylopectin in Rice Endosperm

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Three starch branching enzyme (BE) isozymes, BEI, BEIIa, and BEIIb, are involved in starch biosynthesis in rice endosperm. Past in vivo and in vitro studies have suggested that each BE isozyme plays a distinct role in forming the fine structure of ...

Structure Formation in Dairy Cheese and Plant‐Based Cheese Analogues: A Review

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
In this review, structure formation in dairy cheese and plant‐based cheese analogues is analyzed following a multi‐length scale perspective. Particular emphasis is placed on the distinction between bottom‐up assembly, characteristic of natural dairy cheese, and top‐down structuring, typical of processed cheese and cheese analogues.

Unravelling the initiator‐only stage in alginate grafting: Radical‐induced depolymerization and its impact on acrylamide grafting efficiency

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 8, Page 3996-4006, August 2026.
Abstract Free‐radical grafting of natural polymers often assumes that initiators only create active sites before monomer addition. We tested this by exposing sodium alginate to potassium persulphate (KPS) under typical grafting conditions without monomer (acrylamide).

Amylopectin-Sodium Palmitate Complexes as Sustainable Nanohydrogels with Tunable Size and Fractal Dimensions [PDF]

, 2020
Starch-based nanohydrogels with polyelectrolyte characteristics may find unique applications. Herein, the branch chains of amylopectin (AP) were elongated to different extents by amylosucrase, followed by complexation with sodium palmitate (SP) to ...
