Determinants of raffinose family oligosaccharide use in Bacteroides species [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology
ABSTRACT Bacteroides species are successful colonizers of the human colon and can utilize a wide variety of complex polysaccharides and oligosaccharides that are indigestible by the host. To do this, they use enzymes encoded in polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs). While recent work has

Present status on removal of raffinose family oligosaccharides - a Review [PDF]

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2019
Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) are α-galactosyl derivatives of sucrose or glucose. They are found in a large variety of seeds from many different families such as beans, vegetables and whole grains.

Physiological aspects of raffinose family oligosaccharides in plants: protection against abiotic stress

open access: yesPlant Biology, 2013
AbstractAbiotic stresses resulting from water deficit, high salinity or periods of drought adversely affect plant growth and development and represent major selective forces during plant evolution. The raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) are synthesised from sucrose by the subsequent addition of activated galactinol moieties donated by galactinol.

SCL15 Promotes Seed Longevity Acquisition in Arabidopsis thaliana by Enhancing Antioxidant and Repair Mechanisms During Maturation. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiol Plant
ABSTRACT To ensure seed longevity and successful germination, orthodox seeds acquire protective and repair mechanisms during the late stage of seed development to counteract the detrimental effects of desiccation and subsequent rehydration, processes often associated with oxidative stress.

Metabolism of oligosaccharides and starch in lactobacilli: a review

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Oligosaccharides, compounds that are composed of 2 – 10 monosaccharide residues, are major carbohydrate sources in habitats populated by lactobacilli. Moreover, oligosaccharide metabolism is essential for ecological fitness of lactobacilli.

Evaluating the role of the raffinose family of oligosaccharides in hybrid poplar

open access: yes, 2012
The raffinose family of oligosaccharides (RFO) function as transport carbohydrates in the phloem, storage compounds in sink tissues, and as putative metabolic agents that combat plant stresses. Research on the RFO pathway has focused on seed biology and plants that transport raffinose as their primary photoassimilate.

Significance of Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides (RFOs) metabolism in plants. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Biotechnol (Singap)
AbstractRaffinose Family Oligosaccharides (RFOs) are a kind of polysaccharide containing D-galactose, and they widely exist in higher plants. Synthesis of RFOs begins with galactinol synthase (GolS; EC 2.4.1.123) to convert myo-inositol into galactinol.

Delayed hydrolysis of Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides (RFO) affects critical germination of chickpeas. [PDF]

open access: yes3 Biotech, 2021
Seed raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) are converted into sucrose and galactose by α-galactosidase during germination. Seed osmopriming with a low concentration of potassium nitrate (KNO3) induces early and synchronized germination by activating hydrolases.

Identification and Expression Analysis of the Genes Involved in the Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides Pathway of Phaseolus vulgaris and Glycine max. [PDF]

open access: yesPlants (Basel), 2021
Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFO) play an important role in plants but are also considered to be antinutritional factors. A profound understanding of the galactinol and RFO biosynthetic gene families and the expression patterns of the individual ...

Suppression of SDP1 Improves Soybean Seed Composition by Increasing Oil and Reducing Undigestible Oligosaccharides

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
In developing soybean seeds, carbon is partitioned between oil, protein and carbohydrates. Here, we demonstrate that suppression of lipase-mediated turnover of triacylglycerols (TAG) during late seed development increases fatty acid content and decreases
