Changes in the sugar and amino acid contents of potato tubers during short-term storage and the effect on the acrylamide level in chips after frying were investigated. The acrylamide content in chips began to increase after 3 days of storage at 2 degrees C in response to the increase of glucose and fructose contents in the tubers. There was strong correlation between the reducing sugar content and acrylamide level, R(2)=0.873 for fructose and R(2)=0.836 for glucose. The sucrose content had less correlation with the acrylamide content because of its decrease after 4 weeks of storage at 2 degrees C, while the reducing sugar in potato tubers and the acrylamide in chips continued to increase. The contents of the four amino acids, i.e., asparatic acid, asparagine, glutamic acid and glutamine, showed no significant correlation with the acrylamide level. These results suggest that the content of reducing sugars in potato tubers determined the degree of acrylamide formation in chips. The chip color, as evaluated by L* (lightness), was correlated well with the acrylamide content. 相似文献

Acrylamide in potato chips made from tubers stored at 2 or 20 degrees C for two weeks after harvest was analyzed by GC-MS. The acrylamide level in the former chips was higher than ten times of that in the latter, which was highly correlated with both glucose and fructose levels in the tubers. 相似文献

The relationships of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber membrane permeability and membrane lipid composition to sugar accumulation were examined. Tubers from four potato cultivars were stored for 40 weeks at 3°C and 9°C. Rates of tuber membrane electrolyte leakage, total fatty acid composition, free fatty acid composition, and sugar content were measured throughout the storage period. Storage of tubers at 3°C caused dramatic increases in total fatty acid unsaturation, membrane permeability, and sugar content compared to tubers stored at 9°C. Cultivars with higher levels of fatty acid unsaturation had lower rates of membrane electrolyte leakage and lower sugar contents. We propose that high initial levels or high induced levels of membrane lipid unsaturation mitigate increases in tuber membrane permeability during storage, thus positively influencing the processing quality of stored potato tubers. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to compare the coldlability of phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11) from tubers of potato cultivars (cvs.) known to differ in their propensity to accumulate sugars at low temperature. When stored at 4°C for six weeks, the sugar content of tubers ofSolanum tuberosum L. cv. Record doubled whereas the amount of sugar in tubers of cv. Brodick and an advanced breeding clone (13676) decreased slightly. Tubers from each line contained four forms of phophofructokinase. Over the range 12°–16°C the temperature coefficients of the four forms of phosphofructokinase from cvs. Record and Brodick were similar. In cv. Record the temperature coefficients of three of the enzyme forms were significantly higher at 2°–6°C than at 12°–16°C, whereas those from cv. Brodick were unchanged. These results are consistent with the proposal that inactivation of phosphofructokinase at low temperature results in the accumulation of hexose phosphates leading to increased sucrose synthesis. 相似文献

The compartmentation of metabolism in heterotrophic plant tissues is poorly understood due to the lack of data on metabolite distributions and fluxes between subcellular organelles. The main reason for this is the lack of suitable experimental methods with which intracellular metabolism can be measured. Here, we describe a nonaqueous fractionation method that allows the subcellular distributions of metabolites in developing potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv Desiree) tubers to be calculated. In addition, we have coupled this fractionation method to a recently described gas chromatography-mass spectrometry procedure that allows the measurement of a wide range of small metabolites. To calculate the subcellular metabolite concentrations, we have analyzed organelle volumes in growing potato tubers using electron microscopy. The relative volume distributions in tubers are very similar to the ones for source leaves. More than 60% of most sugars, sugar alcohols, organic acids, and amino acids were found in the vacuole, although the concentrations of these metabolites is often higher in the cytosol. Significant amounts of the substrates for starch biosynthesis, hexose phosphates, and ATP were found in the plastid. However, pyrophosphate was located almost exclusively in the cytosol. Calculation of the mass action ratios of sucrose synthase, UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase, phosphoglucosisomerase, and phosphoglucomutase indicate that these enzymes are close to equilibrium in developing potato tubers. However, due to the low plastidic pyrophosphate concentration, the reaction catalyzed by ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase was estimated to be far removed from equilibrium. 相似文献

Potato tubers (cv. Bintje) (Solanum tuberosum L.) were stored under extreme conditions at 20 °C for 350 days without sprout inhibitors in order to assess whether aging- and/or senescence-related processes occurred. Under these extreme storage conditions, multiple sprouting followed by the formation of daughter tubers occurs. At the same time, an increase in respiration intensity, as evidenced by cytochrome c oxidase activity (E.C. 1.9.3.1), is observed, leading to a potential increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. As polyunsaturated fatty acids are priority targets of oxidative attacks, the damage to lipids was assessed by oxylipin profiling in both free and esterified forms. Oxylipin profiling showed a predominance of linoleic acid-derived oxylipins and of 9-hydroxy and 9-hydroperoxy fatty acids in both free and esterified forms. No significant accumulation of individual oxylipin was observed 350 days after harvest. To further understand the absence of lipid breakdown products accumulation, the main enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants were assessed. Antioxidant enzyme activities [superoxide dismutase (E.C. 1.15.1.1), catalase (E.C. 1.11.1.6.), ascorbate peroxidase (E.C. 1.11.1.11)] were enhanced during the advanced phase of aging. The main non-enzymatic antioxidant compound, ascorbate, decreased markedly in the early stages of storage, followed by a slower decline. Total radical scavenging activity was also maintained at the end of the storage period. Our results indicate that the enhanced aging process occurring during storage at room temperature does not seem to be associated with the changes classically encountered during leaf senescence or seed aging and that the observed degenerative processes do not surpass the protective potential of the tubers. 相似文献

Natural amino acids and sugars in unicellular eukaryotes are known to regulate adenylyl cyclase (AC) and guanylyl cyclase (GC) systems that control the most important cell processes. The goal of the present work consisted in study of effects of natural amino acids and sugars and some of their derivatives on AC and GC activities of infusoria Tetrahymena pyriformis and Dileptus anser. Methionine, arginine, lysine, and tryptamine stimulated basic AC activity of T. pyriformis, whereas alanine, tyramine, and cysteine decreased it. Methionine, glycine, alanine, thyrosine, arginine, and to the lesser degree tryptamine and histidine stimulated AC of D. anser. The GC activity of T. pyriformis rose in the presence of tryptamine, tryptophane, histidine, arginine, and lysine, whereas glycine and aspartic acid, on the contrary, decreased it. Tryptamine, tryptophan, leucine, glutamic acid, serine, histidine, and alanine stimulated the GC activity of D. anser. Glucose, fructose, and sucrose stimulated the basal AC activity of both infusorians and GC of T. pyriformis, with glucose and sucrose increasing AC of T. pyriformis twice, while that of D. anser 4.5 times. Lactose stimulated AC and GC of T. pyriformis and was inefficient with respect to the D. anser cyclases, whereas mannose and galactose did not affect the enzyme activities in both infusorians. The study of the chemotactic response of the infusorians to amino acids and sugars indicates that involved in realization of this response can be signaling pathways both dependent on and independent of cyclic nucleotides. Thus, it has been established for the first time that several amino acids and sugars affect functional activity of enzymes with cyclase activity of the infusorians T. pyriformis and D. anser. This confirms the hypothesis that at early stages of evolution the large specter of comparatively simple natural molecules has a hormone-like action. 相似文献

A filtrate, prepared from potato tuber by grinding in an isotonic medium, has been separated into a particulate and a ‘soluble’ fraction by ultracentrifugation. Following dialysis and lyophilization, both fractions catalysed the oxidation of l-DOPA, with approximately 30% of the l-DOPA: oxygen-oxidoreductase (EC 1.14.18.1; DOPA oxidase) activity being associated with the particulate fraction. When dithiothreitol (DTT, 10?2M was included in the grinding medium, much lower yields of DOPA oxidase were obtained and 80% appeared to be associated with the particulate fraction. DTT proved to be a powerful inhibitor of DOPA oxidase. With concentrations of DTT causing only partial inhibition, the kinetics of the inhibited rate of dopachrome formation from l-DOPA were complex. When oxygen consumption was measured inhibition was not transient. The degree of inhibition was inversely related to the DOPA oxidase activity, indicating interaction of a product of this activity with DTT. Direct determination of -SH groups in DTT using 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) showed that they were all oxidised during the initial phase of inhibition of dopachrome formation. It is concluded that the first phase of inhibition involves oxidation of DTT by an intermediate between l-DOPA and dopachrome. The second phase of inhibition also appeared to require -SH groups initially, since trans-4,5-dihydroxy-1,2-dithiane (oxidized DTT) caused very little inhibition at all. 相似文献

Freezing is the most common method for storing bones until use in skeletal reconstruction. However, the effect of freezing on antibiotic delivery from antibiotic-coated bone has not been evaluated. In this study, we compared antibiotic delivery in vitro from gentamicin-coated human bone stored at different temperatures. Bone chips obtained from human femur heads were chemically cleaned and mixed with gentamicin sulfate. Samples were stored for 4 months at ?20 °C, 4 months at ?80 °C, or evaluated immediately without freezing. Antibiotic release from the bone chips was measured using Bacillus subtilis as an indicator strain. Zones of inhibition and rates of gentamicin release were similar in all three groups. Storage at ?20 and ?80 °C for bone allografts has no effect on gentamicin release from chemically cleaned bone chips. 相似文献

This work focuses on the comparison of field characteristics and amounts of reducing sugars in cold-stored tubers of transgenic
plants derived from two potato cultivars. The bacterial gene coding for phosphofructokinase under the tuber-specific promoter
was used to support the glycolysis in stored tubers. While the tubers from untransformed control plants steadily accumulated
reducing sugars during cold storage, the tubers from transformed plants regardless the genotype were characterized by subsequent
decrease in the sugar content. After long period of cold storage the greatest reduction in the reducing sugar content was
by more than 60 % compared to control. Before the storage, however, the content of reducing sugars was in 80 % of transgenic
lines higher than in control ones. The plants evaluated in field trials for their appearance showed any changes in growth
characteristics in about 25 % of the transgenic lines. Despite the introduced modification of sugar metabolism the yield of
transgenic plants with normal appearance did not differ significantly from the yield of control plants. 相似文献

Theoretical plant growth models postulate an important role for growth substrates such as sugars and amino acids. To test this experimentally, spinach plants were grown under controlled conditions and with nitrogen added daily, following different exponential addition schemes. Plants were harvested during exponential growth. Free amino acid levels or free sugar levels were only weakly correlated with growth and biomass partitioning. Factor analysis showed however that the product of free sugar concentration and amino acid concentration yielded a parameter adequately reflecting the plant's nutritional state.It is concluded that growth and biomass partitioning under limiting N conditions cannot be modelled solely based on N substrate levels. 相似文献

We determined the effect of low molecular weight components (LMWC) from healthy juvenile and adult Macrobrachium rosenbergii hemolymph on lectin activity and oxidative burst (OB) in hemocytes. In an attempt to identify the LMWC that affect the lectin's hemagglutinating activity or oxidative burst, we determined the hemolymph carbohydrates and free amino acids (FAA) concentration. The LMWC (<2000 Da) were obtained after dialysis of the hemolymph. Our results showed that LMWC from juveniles exerted a greater inhibition on lectin than LMWC from adult hemolymph. Production of superoxide radicals by hemocytes was lower in the presence of juvenile (p<0.05) as compared to adult LMWC. FAA composition of the hemolymph and of LMWC from adults showed higher proportion of alanine (which corresponded to 25% of total FAA) and proline (>20%); whereas, in juveniles, the main FAA identified were glycine (>40%) and alanine (26%). N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) was the main sugar residue in the hemolymph and LMWC from juveniles; its concentration was 2.4 times higher than glucose (Glc), whereas, in adults, Glc was the main free sugar residue. Our results suggest that the proportion of FAA and carbohydrates in the hemolymph of M. rosenbergii seems to be correlated with the maturation process; furthermore, the high proportion of free GlcNAc and glycine regulate, in the juvenile stage, lectin activity and cellular oxidative mechanisms, respectively. 相似文献

Treatment of vegetative parts of potato plants two weeks before the harvest with 0.2% 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (CEPA) delayed the sprouting of tubers and increased the resistance of tubers to infections caused byPhytophthora infestans, Erwinia carotovora andFusarium spp. during the storage period. Levels of free, soluble ester- and glycoside-bound phenolic acids and cell wall-bound phenolics were determined in cortical parenchyma of tubers (periderm). The enhancement of phenolic acids in tubers from treated plants was caused primarily by the increase in the contents of free vanillic, caffeic andp-hydroxybenzoic acids and cell wall-bound ferulic, vanillic andp-coumaric acids. 相似文献

The effect of amino acids other than asparagine on acrylamide (AA) formation/elimination kinetics was studied in an asparagine-glucose model system (0.01 M, pH 6) heated at temperatures between 140 and 200 degrees C. Addition of cysteine or lysine to the model significantly lowered the AA yield, whereas addition of glutamine had a strong promoting effect and of alanine a rather neutral effect on the AA formation. This was also reflected by AA formation/elimination kinetics, which for all model systems studied could be modeled by two consecutive first-order reactions. The ratio of the elimination to the formation rate constant increased from the systems to which glutamine or alanine was added, over the control model system, to the model systems that contained lysine or cysteine. 相似文献
