Fructan Biosynthetic and Breakdown Enzymes in Dicots Evolved From Different Invertases. Expression of Fructan Genes Throughout Chicory Development

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 1281-1295, 2002., 2002
Fructans are fructose‐based oligo‐ and polymers that serve as reserve carbohydrates in many plant species. The biochemistry of fructan biosynthesis in dicots has been resolved, and the respective cDNAs have been cloned. Recent progress has now succeeded in elucidating the biochemistry and molecular biology of fructan biodegradation in chicory, an ...

Glycomolecules: from “sweet immunity” to “sweet biostimulation”?

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 176, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract Climate changes and environmental contaminants are daunting challenges that require an urgent change from current agricultural practices to sustainable agriculture. Biostimulants are natural solutions that adhere to the principles of organic farming and are believed to have low impacts on the environment and human health.

X‐ray diffraction structure of a plant glycosyl hydrolase family 32 protein: fructan 1‐exohydrolase IIa of Cichorium intybus [PDF]

The Plant Journal, 2004
Summary Fructan 1‐exohydrolase, an enzyme involved in fructan degradation, belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase family 32. The structure of isoenzyme 1‐FEH IIa from Cichorium intybus is described at a resolution of 2.35 Å. The structure consists of an N‐terminal fivefold

Stress-induced degradation of inulin in Cichorium intybus: Exploring the transcriptional regulation of Fructan 1-exohydrolases

, 2023
The preservation of the polyfructan inulin, a valuable commercial product obtained from chicory during the harvest season is severely hampered by its degradation due to low temperatures in late autumn. The degradation process is primarily attributed to the activity of fructan exohydrolases (1-FEH1, 1-FEH2a, and 1-FEH2b).
