The structure and expression of the wheat starch synthase III gene. Motifs in the expressed gene define the lineage of the starch synthase III gene family [PDF]
The endosperm of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum[L.]) was shown to contain a high molecular weight starch synthase (SS) analogous to the product of the maize du1 gene, starch synthase III (SSIII; DU1).

The regioselective α-glucosylation of hesperetin was achieved by a transglycosylation reaction catalyzed by cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) from Thermoanaerobacter sp. using soluble starch as glucosyl donor.

Interplay between phospholipids and digalactosyldiacylglycerol in phosphate limited oats [PDF]
Phosphate is an essential nutrient. In most soils it is limiting, which has resulted in that phosphate is supplied as fertilizer to increase crop yield.

Main applications of cyclodextrins in the food industry as the compounds of choice to form host–guest complexes [PDF]
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic oligomers broadly used in food manufacturing as food additives for different purposes, e.g., to improve sensorial qualities, shelf life, and sequestration of components.

Cloning and expression of a putative cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase from the symbiotically competent cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC 9229 [PDF]
A polymerase chain reaction-based method was used to isolate a Nostoc sp. PCC 9229 cDNA from infected glands of Gunnera chilensis. The complete gene sequence was isolated from a genomic Nostoc sp. PCC 9229 library. Sequence analysis showed 84% amino acid similarity to a putative cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase from Nostoc sp. PCC 7120 and the gene was

Structural Enzymology of Cellvibrio japonicus Agd31B Protein Reveals α-Transglucosylase Activity in Glycoside Hydrolase Family 31 [PDF]
The metabolism of the storage polysaccharides glycogen and starch is of vital importance to organisms from all domains of life. In bacteria, utilization of these -glucans requires the concerted action of a variety of enzymes, including glycoside ...

A reliable protocol for the stable transformation of non-embryogenic cells cultures of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) and Taxus x media [PDF]
One of the major intent of metabolic engineering in cell culture systems is to increase yields of secondary metabolites. Efficient transformation methods are a priority to successfully apply metabolic engineering to cell cultures of plants that produce ...

Kinetic modeling and exploratory numerical simulation of chloroplastic starch degradation [PDF]
Background Higher plants and algae are able to fix atmospheric carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and store this fixed carbon in large quantities as starch, which can be hydrolyzed into sugars serving as feedstock for fermentation to ...
