Analysis of Mesorhizobium loti Glycogen Operon: Effect of Phosphoglucomutase (pgm) and Glycogen Synthase (glgA) Null Mutants on Nodulation of Lotus tenuis

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002
The phosphoglucomutase (pgm) gene codes for a key enzyme required for the formation of UDP-glucose and ADP-glucose, the sugar donors for the biosynthesis of glucose containing polysaccharides.

Origin and evolution of the main starch biosynthetic enzymes

Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2023
Starch, a semi-crystalline energy storage form primarily found in plant plastids plays a crucial role in various food or no-food applications. Despite the starch biosynthetic pathway's main enzymes have been characterized, their origin and evolution ...

Phylogenomic analysis of glycogen branching and debranching enzymatic duo [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundBranched polymers of glucose are universally used for energy storage in cells, taking the form of glycogen in animals, fungi, Bacteria, and Archaea, and of amylopectin in plants.

Cardiac Involvement in Glycogen Storage Disease Type IV: Two Cases and the Two Ends of a Spectrum

Case Reports in Medicine, 2012
Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV) is an autosomal recessive disorder due to the deficiency of α 1,4-glucan branching enzyme, resulting in an accumulation of amylopectin-like polysaccharide in various systems.

A Broad Characterization of Glycogen Storage Disease IV Patients: A Clinical, Genetic, and Histopathological Study

Biomedicines, 2023
Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV) is an ultra-rare autosomal recessive disease caused by variants in the GBE1 gene, which encodes the glycogen branching enzyme (GBE). GSD IV accounts for approximately 3% of all GSD. The phenotype of GSD IV ranges

Improving bread quality using Deinococcus geothermalis glycogen branching enzyme [PDF]

, 2017
Glycogen branching enzyme(GBE) catalyzes transglycosylation reaction producing α-1,6-glucosidic linkages by cleaving an α-1,4-glucosidic linkage. Deinococcus geothermalis GBE (DgGBE) has the unique activity to form a large number of short oligosaccharide

Compartmentation of glycogen metabolism revealed from 13C isotopologue distributions [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Stable isotope tracers are used to assess metabolic flux profiles in living cells. The existing methods of measurement average out the isotopic isomer distribution in metabolites throughout the cell, whereas the knowledge of compartmental ...

TheCandida glabrataglycogen branching enzyme structure reveals unique features of branching enzymes of theSaccharomycetaceaephylum

Glycobiology, 2021
AbstractBranching enzymes (BE) are responsible for the formation of branching points at the 1,6 position in glycogen and starch, by catalyzing the cleavage of α-1,4-linkages and the subsequent transfer by introducing α-1,6-linked glucose branched points.

Type IV glycogen storage disease: Branching enzyme deficiency in skin fibroblasts and possible heterozygote detection

, 1971
Fibroblasts have been developed from skin biopsies obtained from 3 children with type IV glycogen storage disease (amylopectinosis) and have been shown to be profoundly deficient in branching enzyme activity.

Starch accumulation dynamics and transcriptome analysis of Chlorella sorokiniana during transition of sulfur nutritional status

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Microalgae can effectively accumulate starch by using nutritional limitation methods in the context of bioalcohol fuel production. However, relatively few studies have focused on starch accumulation in microalgae and its molecular basis, especially under
