Recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae YKU 131 (capable of expressing glucoamylase) was used to produce ethanol from sago starch. The optimum C/N ratio for ethanol production by the recombinant yeast was 7.9, where 4.7 and 10.1 g/l ethanol was produced from 20 and 40 g/l sago starch, respectively. At sago starch concentration higher than 40 g/l and C/N ratio higher than 10.4, glucoamylase production and rate of starch hydrolysis were reduced, which in turn, reduced ethanol production significantly. The theoretical yield of ethanol based on sago starch consumed in fermentation using 40 g/l was 72.6%. This yield was slightly lower than those obtained in fermentation using soluble starch such as potato and corn starch, which ranged from 80–90% as reported in the literature. However, S. cerevisiae YKU 131 could only utilize 62% of the total amount of starch added to a medium. 相似文献

ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) is one of the major enzymes involved in starch biosynthesis in higher plants. We report here the molecular cloning of two cDNAs encoding so far uncharacterized isoforms (AGP S2 and AGP S3) of the potato enzyme. Sequence analysis shows that the two polypeptides are more homologous to previously identified large subunit polypeptides from potato and other plant species than to small subunit isoforms. This observation suggests that AGP S2 and AGP S3 represent novel large subunit polypeptides. agpS2 is expressed in several tissues of the potato plant, including leaves and tubers. Expression was stronger in sink leaves than in source leaves, indicating developmental regulation. In leaves, agpS2 expression was induced 2- to 3-fold by exogenous sucrose; therefore, agpS2 represents a new sucrose-responsive gene of starch metabolism. Expression of agpS3 was restricted to tubers: no agpS3 expression could be seen in leaves of different developmental stages, or when leaves were incubated in sucrose. Therefore, agpS3 represents the only AGPase gene so far characterized from potato, which is not expressed in leaves. Conversely, all four AGPase isoforms known from potato are expressed in tubers. 相似文献

Rapid visco analysis (RVA) was performed to study the pasting properties of mixtures of wheat flour and tuber starches, i.e., potato starch (PS), sweet potato starch (SPS), yam starch (YS), and cassava starch (CS), at 10–50% starch in the mixtures. Lower phosphorus and higher amylose contents were observed in CS, followed by YS, SPS, and PS. The peak, breakdown, final, and setback viscosities of the control wheat flour were lower than those of the control PS, SPS, YS, and CS. The peak viscosity of wheat–PS mixtures was higher than those of the wheat–SPS, wheat–YS, and wheat–CS because of the higher phosphorus and lower amylose content of PS, which resulted in higher swelling of PS than that of SPS, YS, and CS. The breakdown viscosities increased as the starch content of the PS, SPS, and CS in the mixtures increased to up to the 50%, and the values tended to decrease in the wheat–YS mixture. The setback viscosities of wheat–SPS, wheat–YS, and wheat–CS increased significantly as the starch content increased from 10% to 50%, and that of wheat–PS dropped dramatically at 50%. The findings in this work provide evidence that tuber starches could be used as a partial substitute for wheat flour in some wheat-based products. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae was cultivated in a 10 litre laboratory stirred tank, an 80 litre laboratory airlift tower loop and a 4 m 3 pilot-plant airlift tower loop reactor using by-products and wastes of potato and wheat starch production in batch and continuous cultures. Potato protein liquor, potato liquor retentate, potato liquor residue, and wheat process water were used as nutrients and glucose from the enzymatic conversion of potato starch as energy source. Besides the performance of the cultivation (cell concentrations, specific growth rates in the first (glucose) and second (ethanol) growth phases, productivities, yield coefficients), the qualities of the effluents (concentrations of phosphate, dissolved organic carbon, dissolved organic nitrogen, and chemical oxygen demand) were also determined in the different reactors as functions of the operational parameters. The optimal conditions were evaluated with regard to cultivation performance and effluent quality. These performances do not vary with the scale of the reactors. The performance of continuous cultures is considerably better than that of batch cultures. 相似文献

Microbacterium aurum strain B8.A was isolated from the sludge of a potato starch-processing factory on the basis of its ability to use granular
starch as carbon- and energy source. Extracellular enzymes hydrolyzing granular starch were detected in the growth medium
of M. aurum B8.A, while the type strain M. aurum DSMZ 8600 produced very little amylase activity, and hence was unable to degrade granular starch. The strain B8.A extracellular
enzyme fraction degraded wheat, tapioca and potato starch at 37 °C, well below the gelatinization temperature of these starches.
Starch granules of potato were hydrolyzed more slowly than of wheat and tapioca, probably due to structural differences and/or
surface area effects. Partial hydrolysis of starch granules by extracellular enzymes of strain B8.A resulted in large holes
of irregular sizes in case of wheat and tapioca and many smaller pores of relatively homogeneous size in case of potato. The
strain B8.A extracellular amylolytic system produced mainly maltotriose and maltose from both granular and soluble starch
substrates; also, larger maltooligosaccharides were formed after growth of strain B8.A in rich medium. Zymogram analysis confirmed
that a different set of amylolytic enzymes was present depending on the growth conditions of M. aurum B8.A. Some of these enzymes could be partly purified by binding to starch granules. 相似文献

The gelatinisation, pasting and retrogradation properties of three rye starches isolated using a proteinase-based procedure were investigated and compared to those of wheat starch isolated in a comparable way. On an average, the rye starch granules were larger than those of wheat starch. The former had very comparable gelatinisation temperatures and enthalpies, but slightly lower gelatinisation temperatures than wheat starch. Under standardised conditions, they retrograded to a lesser extent than wheat starch. The lower gelatinisation temperatures and tendencies of the rye starches to retrograde originated probably from their higher levels of short amylopectin (AP) chains [degree of polymerisation (DP) 6–12] and their lower levels of longer chains (DP 13–24) than observed for wheat starch. The rapid visco analysis differences in peak and end viscosities between the rye starches as well as between rye and wheat starches were at least partly attributable to differences in the levels of AP short chains and in average amylose molecular weight. The AP average chain lengths and exterior chain lengths were slightly lower for rye starches, while the interior chain lengths were slightly higher than those for wheat starch. 相似文献

An endophytic fungus, Gibberella pulicaris, produced an amylase which degraded raw starches from cereals and other crops including raw potato, sago, tapioca, corn, wheat and rice starch. In each case, glucose was the main product. Among the raw starches used, raw potato starch gave the highest enzyme activity (85 units mg –1 protein) and raw wheat starch the lowest (49 units mg –1 protein). The highest amylase production (260 units mg –1 protein) was achieved when the concentration of raw potato starch was increased to 60 g l –1. Optimum hydrolysis was at 40°C and pH 5.5. 相似文献

Rhizopus oryzae strain NBRC 4707 produced lactic acid and ethanol more efficiently than strain NRRL 395 in potato pulp, an agricultural by-product of the starch industry. The two strains developed comparable activities of xylanase, cellulase, -amylase, and glucoamylase, while the polygalacturonase activity of strain NBRC 4707 was double that of strain NRRL 395. The addition of commercial pectinase enhanced the formation of metabolites, suggesting that the degradation of pectic substances determines the fermentation of potato pulp by R. oryzae. Orange and apple peel were more effective in the induction of polygalacturonase activity than potato pulp, sugarbeet pulp, or wheat bran when used as a principal carbon source for fungal growth in a solid-state culture. The fungal cells in both types of fruit peel stimulated the fermentation of potato pulp and increased the quantity of lactic acid and ethanol to higher levels than those in other agricultural by-products. 相似文献

Sucrose fatty acid esters (SFAE) were adsorbed onto dry-heated (120?°C for 10, 20, 40, 60, and 120?min) wheat starch granules and extracted with ethyl ether in a Soxhlet apparatus without gelatinization of the starch granules. The amount of sucrose in the extracted SFAE was determined by the phenol sulfate method. A gradual increase of the sucrose from 159 to 712?μg, in SFAE per gram of starch, occurred with increasing dry-heating time and demonstrated the increased hydrophobicity of the starch granules. Increase of the SFAE was highly correlated ( r?=?0.9816) to increase of the oil-binding capacity of the dry-heated wheat starch granules. Non-waxy rice, waxy rice, sweet potato, and potato starch granules also showed higher hydrophobicity after dry-heating by this method. 相似文献

A bacterium which can utilize potato starch granules as sole carbon source was isolated and identified as Bacillus circulans from its physiological and biochemical properties. Scanning electron microscopic observation of potato starch granules recovered from the culture broth revealed that granules were degraded gradually from their surface resulting in elongated granules with layered structures on their surface. This bacterium produced extracellular amylase which can digest potato starch granules in vitro. The amylase has a unique property in that it produces only maltohexaose from gelatinized starch in the early stage of the reaction. For the production of this amylase potato starch was found to be most effective while soluble sugars including gelatinized starch and maltose had little effect. 相似文献

Treatment of convolvulin (the ether insoluble portion of purified jalap resin) with sodium methoxide in methanol has yielded a new β-d-quinovoside. Periodate oxidation and methylation studies together with chemical and spectroscopic analyses have shown this fragment to consist of one molecule of d-quinovose glycosidically linked to a molecule of methyl 11-hydroxytetradecanoate. 相似文献

Three Andean tetraploid potato genotypes (2n=48) and 7 anther-derived dihaploids (2n=24) originating from two of the tetraploids were used in anther culture. Relative number of embryos/vial was significantly higher when the anther culture media was gelatinized with 3% potato starch than when Gelrite or wheat starch (3%) were used as gelatinizing agents. The degree of anther culture response varied between tetraploids but also within a group of related dihaploids. Additionally, the embryo production of individual genotypes, tetraploids as well as dihaploids, was dependent on the incubation temperature (10, 15, 20, 25, 30°C) of the anther culture. The incubation temperature of the anther culture was also important for the regeneration rate. Direct regeneration was mostly stimulated when the anther culture was incubated at 20°C.Abbreviations BAP

Metabolite levels and carbohydrates were investigated in the leaves of tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum L.) and leaves and tubers of potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.) plants which had been transformed with pyrophosphatase from Escherichia coli. In tobacco the leaves contained two- to threefold less pyrophosphate than controls and showed a large increase in UDP-glucose, relative to hexose phosphate. There was a large accumulation of sucrose, hexoses and starch, but the soluble sugars increased more than starch. Growth of the stem and roots was inhibited and starch, sucrose and hexoses accumulated. In potato, the leaves contained two- to threefold less pyrophosphate and an increased UDP-glucose/ hexose-phosphate ratio. Sucrose increased and starch decreased. The plants produced a larger number of smaller tubers which contained more sucrose and less starch. The tubers contained threefold higher UDP-glucose, threefold lower hexose-phosphates, glycerate-3-phosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate, and up to sixfold more fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase than the wild-type tubers. It is concluded that removal of pyrophosphate from the cytosol inhibits plant growth. It is discussed how these results provide evidence that sucrose mobilisation via sucrose synthase provides one key site at which pyrophosphate is needed for plant growth, but is certainly not the only site at which pyrophosphate plays a crucial role.Abbreviations Fru2,6bisP

Ageing of gelatinised and partly gelatinised potato starch and wheat starch were investigated in the presence of plasticisers with increasing size and number of OH groups (ethylene glycol, glycerol, threitol, xylitol, glucose, and for potato starch also maltose). The influences of these plasticisers and of granular remnants (ghosts) on recrystallisation were determined by using X-ray diffraction. Recrystallisation of potato starch samples in the presence of plasticisers resulted in crystallinity indices of 0.5. The largest reduction in potato starch recrystallisation is found for threitol (4 OH) and xylitol (5 OH). In the plasticiser range examined, the crystallisation inducing effect of granular potato starch remnants is reduced better when the plasticiser contains more OH groups. Wheat starch recrystallises to a lesser extent than potato starch, resulting in crystallinity indices of 0.4. The results for wheat starch do not show clear trends for the influences of plasticiser size and of ghosts. The difference in behaviour of the two starches is probably caused by wheat starch having shorter amylopectin chains. Resulting from these shorter amylopectin chains, the remaining structure in wheat starch ghosts may resemble A-type crystallinity, making it more difficult to form B-type crystals. Alternatively, the trends as found for potato starch may occur, but are less manifest for wheat starch, due to the lower total extent of recrystallisation. Solid state CP/MAS NMR spectra of the wheat starch samples containing ethylene glycol were obtained, in order to compare completely and partly gelatinised systems. The spectra were identical, confirming that the ghost structures do not influence wheat starch recrystallisation. Apparently, wheat starch ghosts do not act as nuclei for crystallisation. Similarly, the influence of various malto-oligosaccharides in combination with granular remnants (ghosts) was investigated on wheat starch ageing. Gelatinised and partly gelatinised wheat starch were plasticised with maltose, maltotriose, maltotetraose, maltopentaose or maltohexaose. This resulted in crystallinity indices of 0.2, with the largest reduction in recrystallisation for maltotriose and maltotetraose. No trend was found for the influence of ghosts. The presence of ghosts did not influence the 13C solid state HP/DEC NMR spectra. Less recrystallisation took place than with the previously mentioned smaller plasticisers that resulted in crystallinity indices of 0.4. The finding that maltose was able to reduce retrogradation better than glucose could be of practical importance. 相似文献

The kinetics of glucoamylase-catalyzed hydrolysis of starch granules from six different botanical sources (rice, wheat, maize, cassava, sweet potato, and potato) was studied by the use of an electrochemical glucose sensor. A higher rate of hydrolysis was obtained as a smaller size of starch granules was used. The adsorbed amount of glucoamylase on the granule surface per unit area did not vary very much with the type of starch granules examined, while the catalytic constants of the adsorbed enzyme ( k 0) were determined to be 23.3±4.4, 14.8±6.0, 6.2±1.8, 7.1±4.1, 4.6±3.0, and 1.6±0.6 s ?1 for rice, wheat, maize, cassava, sweet potato, and potato respectively, showing that k 0 was largely influenced by the type of starch granules. A comparison of the k 0-values in relation to the crystalline structure of the starch granules suggested that k 0 increases as the crystalline structure becomes dense. 相似文献

The effects of starch granules on the rheological behaviour of gels of native potato and high amylopectin potato (HAPP) starches have been studied with small deformation oscillatory rheometry. The influence of granule remnants on the rheological properties of samples treated at 90 °C was evident when compared with samples treated at 140 °C, where no granule remnants were found. The presence of amylose in native potato starch gave to stronger network formation since potato starch gave higher moduli values than HAPP, after both 90 and 140 °C treatments. In addition, amylose may have strengthened the network of HAPP because higher moduli values were obtained when native potato starch was added to the system. The moduli values of the mixtures also increased with increasing polysaccharide concentration in the system, which is due to an increment in the polysaccharide chain contacts and entanglements. Finally, it was found that a mixture of commercial amylose from potato starch and HAPP resulted in lower values of G′ compared to native potato starch. This indicates that the source of amylose is important for the properties in a blend with native amylopectin. 相似文献

Waxy wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) lacks the waxy protein, which is also known as granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI). The starch granules of waxy wheat endosperm and pollen do not contain amylose and therefore stain red-brown with iodine. However, we observed that starch from pericarp tissue of waxy wheat stained blue-black and contained amylose. Significantly higher starch synthase activity was detected in pericarp starch granules than in endosperm starch granules. A granule-bound protein that differed from GBSSI in molecular mass and isoelectric point was detected in the pericarp starch granules but not in granules from endosperm. This protein was designated GBSSII. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of GBSSII, although not identical to wheat GBSSI, showed strong homology to waxy proteins or GBSSIs of cereals and potato, and contained the motif KTGGL, which is the putative substrate-binding site of GBSSI of plants and of glycogen synthase of Escherichia coli. GBSSII cross-reacted specifically with antisera raised against potato and maize GBSSI. This study indicates that GBSSI and GBSSII are expressed in a tissue-specific manner in different organs, with GBSSII having an important function in amylose synthesis in the pericarp. 相似文献

A cDNA clone, and a corresponding genomic DNA clone, containing full-length sequences encoding wheat starch synthase I, were
isolated from a cDNA library of hexaploid wheat ( Triticum aestivum) and a genomic DNA library of Triticum tauschii, respectively. The entire sequence of the starch synthase-I cDNA (wSSI-cDNA) is 2591 bp, and it encodes a polypeptide of 647
amino-acid residues that shows 81% and 61% identity to the amino-acid sequences of SSI-type starch synthases from rice and
potato, respectively. In addition, the putative N-terminal amino-acid sequence of the encoded protein is identical to that
determined for the N-terminal region of the 75-kDa starch synthase present in the starch granule of hexaploid wheat. Two prominent
starch synthase activities were demonstrated to be present in the soluble fraction of wheat endosperm by activity staining
of the non-denaturing PAGE gels. The most anodal band (wheat SSI) shows the highest staining intensity and results from the
activity of a 75-kDa protein. The wheat SSI mRNA is expressed in the endosperm during the early to mid stages of wheat grain
development but was not detected by Northern blotting in other tissues from the wheat plant. The gene encoding the wheat SSI
( SsI-D1) consists of 15 exons and 14 introns, similar to the structure of the rice starch synthase-I gene. While the exons of wheat
and rice are virtually identical in length, the wheat SsI-D1 gene has longer sequences in introns 1, 2, 4 and 10, and shorter sequences in introns 6, 11 and 14, than the corresponding
rice gene.

Corn hulls, the outer peel covering the corn grain, were used for preparation of koji, which was applied to alcoholic fermentation without cooking of raw strachy materials. Corn hull koji had lower saccharifying power, α-amylase, CMCase and xylanase than wheat bran koji, but higher protease and pectinase activities, Its alcoholic fermentations of cassava starch and sweet potato were also superior to those of wheat bran koji: corn hull koji gave 10.3% (v/v) of alcohol with 93% yield from 20 g of cassava starch, while wheat bran koji gave 9.4% (v/v) of alcohol with 90.4% yeild; and corn hull koji gave 9.1% (v/v) of alcohol with 92.6% yielded from 50 g of sweet potato, while wheatbran koji gave 8.1 (v/v) of alcohol with 88.6% yield. 相似文献

Wild-type (WT) plants of potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.) and their transgenic forms carrying agrobacterial genes rolB or rolC under the control of B33 class I patatin promoter were cultured in vitro on MS medium with 2% sucrose in a controlled-climate chamber at 16-h illumination
and 22°C. These plants were used as a source of single-node stem cuttings, which were cultured in darkness on the same medium
supplemented with 8% sucrose. The tubers formed on them were used for determination of the structure of native starch using
the methods of differential scanning microcalorimetry (DSC), X-ray scattering, and scanning electron microscopy. It was found
that, in starch from the tubers of rolB-plants, the temperature of crystalline lamella melting was lower and their thickness was less than in WT potato. In tubers
of rolC plants, starch differed from starch in WT plants by a higher melting temperature, considerably reduced melting enthalpy,
and a greater thickness of crystalline lamellae. Deconvolution of DSC thermogram makes it possible to interpret the melting
of starch from the tubers of rolC plants as the melting of two independent crystalline structures with melting temperatures of 65.0 and 69.8°C. Electron microscopic
examination confirmed the earlier obtained data indicating that, in the tubers of rolC plants, starch granules are smaller and in the tubers of rolB plants larger than in WT plants. Possible ways of influence of rol transgenes on structural properties of starch in amyloplasts of potato tubers are discussed. 相似文献
