Fructosyltransferases in plants: Structure, function and application: A review

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications, 2023
Fructosyltransferases (FTs) are an important group of enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of fructans in some plants and in a large number of microorganisms.

Streptococcus mutansfructosyltransferase interactions with glucans [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2004
Streptococcus mutans utilizes sucrose to synthesize glucans by glucosyltransferase and fructans by fructosyltransferase (FTF). Antibodies raised against a recombinant FTF were used to study S. mutans FTF secretion. Low amounts of cell-free FTF were found in culture of S.

VALIDATION OF AN ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR THE QUANTIFICATION OF 1-KESTOSE, GLUCOSE AND SUCROSE IN THE REACTION PRODUCTS OF A FRUCTOSYLTRANSFERASE

Journal of Microbiology, Biotechnology and Food Sciences, 2023
The enzymatic synthesis of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) from sucrose by the action of fructosyltransferases produces a mixture of different carbohydrates.

Genetic regulation of fructosyltransferase in Streptococcus mutans [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1994
Streptococcus mutans possesses several extracellular sucrose-metabolizing enzymes which have been implicated as important virulence factors in dental caries. This study was initiated to investigate the genetic regulation of one of these enzymes, the extracellular fructosyltransferase (Ftf).

MEPDB: Database of microExons in plants. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Microexons, ≤ 51‐nucleotide (nt), particularly ultra‐short ones (1–15 nt), are challenging to identify due to their small size and frequent absence in genome annotations, which limits understanding of their biological roles. Using our developed pipeline, we identified 2398 small internal microexons across 10 diverse plant species, and most of ...

Synthesis of fructo-oligosaccharides using grape must and sucrose as raw materials [PDF]

, 2019
Grape must market has been rising and there is an increasing interest to use it as a natural replacement for traditional sugars. Food or beverages with prebiotic compounds, including fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), emerge as an alternative for the new ...

Synthesis of several fructo-oligosaccharides by asparagus fructosyltransferases. [PDF]

Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1979
Nine fructo-oligosaccharides, synthesized in vitro from sucrose by an enzyme preparation from asparagus roots, were isolated and their structures were elucidated to be 1F (1-β-fructo-furanosyl)n sucrose [n=1 (1-kestose), 2 (nystose) and 3], 6G (1-β-fructofuranosyl)n, sucrose [n=1 (neokestose), 2 and 3] and 1F (1-β-fructofuranosyl)m 6G (1-β ...

Gene expression and metabolic activity of Streptococcus mutans during exposure to dietary carbohydrates glucose, sucrose, lactose, and xylitol

Molecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 38, Issue 5, Page 424-441, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Recent RNA sequencing studies have given us a deeper insight into the cariogenic impact of carbohydrate sources in the bacterium Streptococcus mutans, the principal microbial agent in dental caries etiopathogenesis. The process of dental caries development is facilitated by the ability of this bacterium to ferment some carbohydrates into ...
