Molecular Features of Wheat Endosperm Arabinoxylan Inclusion in Functional Bread
Foods, 2013 Arabinoxylan (AX) is a major dietary fibre component found in a variety of cereals. Numerous health benefits of arabinoxylans have been reported to be associated with their solubility and molecular features. The current study reports the development of a

Prebiotic Potential of Cereal Components
Foods, 2021 One type of functional food that has been receiving much attention is food rich in prebiotics. The old but still valid definition of prebiotics defines them as non-digestible food components that selectively stimulate the growth and/or activity of the ...

Structure and Function of an Arabinoxylan-specific Xylanase [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2011 The enzymatic degradation of plant cell walls plays a central role in the carbon cycle and is of increasing environmental and industrial significance. The enzymes that catalyze this process include xylanases that degrade xylan, a β-1,4-xylose polymer that is decorated with various sugars.

Evolution and Development of Cell Walls in Cereal Grains
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 The composition of cell walls in cereal grains and other grass species differs markedly from walls in seeds of other plants. In the maternal tissues that surround the embryo and endosperm of the grain, walls contain higher levels of cellulose and in ...

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...
