Regulation of Seed Vigor by Manipulation of Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides in Maize and Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) accumulate in seeds during maturation desiccation in many plant species. However, it remains unclear whether RFOs have a role in establishing seed vigor. GALACTINOL SYNTHASE (GOLS), RAFFINOSE SYNTHASE (RS), and STACHYOSE SYNTHASE (STS) are the enzymes responsible for RFO biosynthesis in plants.

Abstract Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) are commonly applied as functional food ingredients. RFOs mixture derived from Eupatorium were analyzed by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-evaporative light scattering detector (HILIC-ELSD) method with a Click Xion column, and then separated by graphitized carbon black (GCB ...

Biochemistry and physiology of raffinose family oligosaccharides and galactosyl cyclitols in seeds
Seed Science Research, 2001AbstractRaffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) are of almost ubiquitous occurrence in plant seeds. They accumulate during seed development and disappear rapidly during germination. The biosynthesis of raffinose, the first member of the series, proceeds by addition of a galactosyl unit to sucrose.

The Raffinose Family of Oligosaccharides
1954Publisher Summary This chapter discusses raffinose and those saccharides which are related to raffinose by virtue of having one or more α-D-galactopyranosyl groups in their structures. These D-galactosyl groups are found in nature joined to sugars, such as D-glucose, to sucrose, to certain polysaccharides, and to a few non-sugars, such as glycerol ...

This study was aimed to isolate and characterize the raffinose family oligosaccharides (RGOs) from a novel plant source of Rehmannia glutinosa Libosch, and further evaluate whether RGOs can attenuate CCl4-induced oxidative stress and hepatopathy in mice.

Metabolic process of raffinose family oligosaccharides during cold stress and recovery in cucumber leaves [PDF]
Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) accumulate under stress conditions in many plants and have been suggested to act as stress protectants. To elucidate the metabolic process of RFOs under cold stress, levels of RFOs, and related carbohydrates, the expression and activities of main metabolic enzymes and their subcellular compartments were ...

Continuous hydrolysis of raffinose family oligosaccharides in soymilk by fluidized bed reactor
Abstract Soybean is an important pulse crop for human and animal nutrition. However, raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) found in soybean seeds specifically hinder its consumption as it is not digested by normal human carbohydrases and is fermented by intestinal microflora, leading to flatulence.
