Patterns of fructan synthesized by onion fructan : fructan 6G‐fructosyltransferase expressed in tobacco BY2 cells – is fructan : fructan 1‐fructosyltransferase needed in onion? [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2003
•  Fructan : fructan 6G-fructosyltransferase (6G-FFT) has been proposed to be the enzyme essential for the production of neo-series inulin. Transfer of a fructose unit from short chain inulins to the C6 of the glucose residue of sucrose or inulin was proposed to be its most important characteristic.
