Solubilization of UDP-glucose-specific starch synthetase in sweet-potato (Ipomoea batatas) starch granules by the urea/pullulanase method.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ADP-glucose- or UDP-glucose-specific starch synthetase bound to sweet-potato (Ipomoea batatas) starch granules is localized in the granules, and the UDP-glucose-specific enzyme was solubulized by urea/pullulanase treatment of the starch granules.

Evaluation of β-amylase Activity of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas) Cultivated in Iran
Besides the high starch content, sweet potato contains endogenous amylases where the two Predominants are - and β-amylases. Sweet potato is thought to be a promising source of β -amylase since β -amylase is one of the major protein in the tubers. This investigation has focused on the properties of β amylase from white-flesh sweet potato that has been grown in Iran as a potential source for indu...
متن کاملComparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Critical Function of Sucrose Metabolism Related-Enzymes in Starch Accumulation in the Storage Root of Sweet Potato
The starch properties of the storage root (SR) affect the quality of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.). Although numerous studies have analyzed the accumulation and properties of starch in sweet potato SRs, the transcriptomic variation associated with starch properties in SR has not been quantified. In this study, we measured the starch and sugar contents and analyzed the transcriptome p...
متن کاملStarch phosphorylase inhibitor from sweet potato.
A protein, starch phosphorylase inhibitor, was purified from the root of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam. cv Tainon 65). It had a molecular weight of 250,000 and could be composed of five identical subunits. The isoelectric point of the inhibitor was 4.63. It was a noncompetitive inhibitor toward the sweet potato enzyme with a K(i) value of 1.3 x 10(-6) molar when glucose-1-P was the var...

The objectives of this study were to analyze the macronutrients composition, dietary fiber, and resistant starch in Bestak sweet potato variety; to identify the prebiotic components in sweet potato fiber extract (SPFE); and to evaluate the prebiotic activity of SPFE. Evaluation of prebiotic activity was based on the change in cell biomass after 24 h of growth of the probiotic strain in the pres...
متن کاملDevelopment and Identification of SSR Markers Associated with Starch Properties and β-Carotene Content in the Storage Root of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas L.)
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is a nutritious food crop and, based on the high starch content of its storage root, a potential bioethanol feedstock. Enhancing the nutritional value and starch quantity of storage roots are important goals of sweet potato breeding programs aimed at developing improved varieties for direct consumption, processing, and industrial uses. However, developing impro...
