Cloning and functional characterization of a fructan 1-exohydrolase (1-FEH) in edible burdock (Arctium lappa L.) [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry Central Journal, 2011
Background We have previously reported on the variation of total fructooligosaccharides (FOS), total inulooligosaccharides (IOS) and inulin in the roots of burdock stored at different temperatures. During storage at 0°C, an increase of FOS as a result of

Influencing the binding configuration of sucrose in the active sites of chicory fructan 1‐exohydrolase and sugar beet fructan 6‐exohydrolase [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2008
The hydrolytic plant enzymes of family 32 of glycoside hydrolases (GH32), including acid cell wall type invertases (EC 3.2.1.26), fructan 1-exohydrolases (1-FEH; EC 3.2.1.153) and fructan 6-exohydrolases (6-FEH; EC 3.2.1.154), are very similar at the molecular and structural levels, but are clearly functionally different.

Fructan exohydrolase from grasses [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 1993
SUMMARYIn grasses, fructan reserves are mobilized from vegetative plant parts during seasonal growth, after defoliation during grazing and from stems during seed filling. Well‐illuminated leaves show a diurnal pattern of fructan accumulation during the light and mobilization during the dark. In expanding leaves, fructans are accumulated in cells of the

Association Mapping and Nucleotide Sequence Variation in Five Drought Tolerance Candidate Genes in Spring Wheat

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, 2013
Functional markers are needed for key genes involved in drought tolerance to improve selection for crop yield under moisture stress conditions. The objectives of this study were to (i) characterize five drought tolerance candidate genes, namely ...

Fructan biosynthesis gene expression upon cold acclimation in orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.)

open access: yesGrassland Research
Background Fructan content and flux in temperate forages can benefit the grasses through increased cold hardiness, increased drought tolerance, and improved forage quality.

Purification and Characterization of an Oat Fructan Exohydrolase That Preferentially Hydrolyzes [beta]-2,6-Fructans [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1996
Oat (Avena sativa cv Fulghum) fructan hydrolase was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and anion-exchange, hydrophobic interaction, and size-exclusion chromatography. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity as determined by the presence of a single band (43 kD) on a silver-stained sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel.

Induction of 1-FEH in Mature Chicory Roots Appears to be Related to Low Temperatures Rather than to Leaf Damage

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2002
Large-scale inulin production from chicory roots (Cichorium intybus L.) is hampered by the induction of 1-FEH activity (fructan 1-exohydrolase) and concomitant fructose production in autumn, coincident with a period with low night temperatures that cause

Apoplastic Sugars, Fructans, Fructan Exohydrolase, and Invertase in Winter Oat: Responses to Second-Phase Cold Hardening [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1998
Abstract Changes in apoplastic carbohydrate concentrations and activities of carbohydrate-degrading enzymes were determined in crown tissues of oat (Avena sativa L., cv Wintok) during cold hardening. During second-phase hardening (−3°C for 3 d) levels of fructan, sucrose, glucose, and fructose in the apoplast increased significantly ...

The rice genome encodes two vacuolar invertases with fructan exohydrolase activity but lacks the related fructan biosynthesis genes of the Pooideae [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2006
* Fructans are believed to contribute to cold and drought tolerance in several plant families (Poaceae, Asparagaceae and Asteraceae), but it is not clear why the ability to accumulate these polymers is found in some genera (e.g. Triticum) but not in others (e.g. Oryza).
