Native and Degraded Forms of Sweet Potato Starch Phosphorylase
By immunoblotting using monoclonal and polyclonal mouse antibodies against sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) starch phosphorylase (SP), and by activity and dye staining methods, fresh extracts obtained from sweet potatoes immediately after harvest or from those being stored under various conditions were analyzed for SP by PAGE.

Engineered native pathways for high kaempferol and caffeoylquinate production in potato [PDF]
SummaryFlavonols and caffeoylquinates represent important groups of phenolic antioxidants with health‐promoting activities. The genetic potential of potato (Solanum tuberosum) to produce high levels of these dietary compounds has not been realized in currently available commodity varieties.
