BACKGROUND Genes encoding pectic enzymes were introduced into wild-type potato Karnico. Cell wall materials were extracted from Karnico and transgenic lines expressing β-galactosidase (β-Gal-14) or rhamnogalacturonan lyase (RGL-18). Pectic polysaccharides from the β-Gal-14 transgenic line exhibited

Extraction and structural characterisation of rhamnogalacturonan I-type pectic polysaccharides from potato cell wall.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cell wall material from potato pulp by-product was used for the extraction of galactan-rich rhamnogalacturonan I (RG-I) type pectic polysaccharides using alkaline (NaOH and KOH) and enzymatic (endopolygalacturonase from Aspergillus niger) methods. The extraction yield increased as the concentration

Enzymatic generation of galactose-rich oligosaccharides/oligomers from potato rhamnogalacturonan I pectic polysaccharides.

Only registered users can translate articles

Potato pulp by-product rich in galactan-rich rhamnogalacturonan I (RG I) was investigated as a new source of oligosaccharides with potential prebiotic properties. The efficiency of selected monocomponent enzymes and multi-enzymatic preparations to generate oligosaccharides/oligomers from potato RG I

Gastro protective and H(+), K(+)-ATPase/H. pylori inhibitory properties of pectic polysaccharides from potato.

Polysaccharide is one among the important classes of biological polymers that is reported to exhibit disease preventive properties. The present study describes the isolation of galactans and confirmation of the same by sugar analysis and determination of anti-ulcer effect of Potato Galactan

Short communication: Stabilization of milk proteins at pH 5.5 using pectic polysaccharides derived from potato tubers.

Potato pectin has unique molecular characteristics that differentiate it from commercially available pectins sourced from citrus peels or apple pomace, including a higher degree of branching and a higher acetyl content. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of potato pectin to

Adsorption of a hydrophobic mutagen to dietary fibre from the skin and flesh of potato tubers.

Only registered users can translate articles

One of the theories to explain the protective action of some dietary fibres against colon cancer is that certain mutagens and/or cancer promoters are adsorbed to these dietary fibres making the mutagens and/or cancer promoters less available to gut mucosal cells. The abilities of 2 contrasting cell

Pectin distribution at the surface of potato parenchyma cells in relation to cell-cell adhesion.

Only registered users can translate articles

The crispness of fruits and vegetables is dependent, predominantly, on the maintenance of cell adhesion. There is a growing body of evidence to suggest that cell adhesion in plants is controlled at the edge of cell faces rather than across the entire cell surface. The aim of the current study has

Chitosans and pectic polysaccharides both induce the accumulation of the antifungal phytoalexin pisatin in pea pods and antinutrient proteinase inhibitors in tomato leaves.

Only registered users can translate articles

The Proteinase Inhibitor Inducing Factor, PIIF, a pectic polysaccharide that induces synthesis and accumulation of proteinase inhibitor proteins in tomato and potato leaves, is an effective elicitor of the phytoalexin pisatin in pea pod tissues. The levels of pisatin induced by PIIF, and the time

In muro fragmentation of the rhamnogalacturonan I backbone in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) results in a reduction and altered location of the galactan and arabinan side-chains and abnormal periderm development.

Rhamnogalacturonan (RG) I is a branched pectic polysaccharide in plant cell walls. Rhamnogalacturonan lyase (eRGL) from Aspergillus aculeatus is able to cleave the RG I backbone at specific sites. Transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants were made by the introduction of the gene encoding

In vitro phosphorylation of plant plasma membrane proteins in response to the proteinase inhibitor inducing factor.

A polygalacturonide purified from a tomato leaf pectic polysaccharide that induces the systemic synthesis of proteinase inhibitors in tomato plants enhances the phosphorylation of specific proteins in plasma membrane fractions isolated from tomato and potato leaves. In tomato plasma membranes, two

Tissue-specific rhamnogalacturonan I forms the gel with hyperelastic properties.

Rhamnogalacturonans I are complex pectin polysaccharides extremely variable in structure and properties and widely represented in various sources. The complexity and diversity of the structure of rhamnogalacturonans I are the reasons for the limited information about the properties and

Enzymatically-tailored pectins differentially influence the morphology, adhesion, cell cycle progression and survival of fibroblasts.

Improved biocompatibility and performance of biomedical devices can be achieved through the incorporation of bioactive molecules on device surfaces. Five structurally distinct pectic polysaccharides (modified hairy regions (MHRs)) were obtained by enzymatic liquefaction of apple (MHR-B, MHR-A and

Selective chemical depolymerization of rhamnogalacturonans.

Only registered users can translate articles

A method was developed to selectively methyl esterify and then cleave GalA residues in pectic polysaccharides. The method was optimized using a rhamnogalacturonan (RG) from Arabidopsis mucilage as a model compound. The carboxyl group of the GalA residues in the RG was selectively methyl esterified

The Deconstruction of Pectic Rhamnogalacturonan I Unmasks the Occurrence of a Novel Arabinogalactan Oligosaccharide Epitope.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rhamnogalacturonan I (RGI) is a pectic polysaccharide composed of a backbone of alternating rhamnose and galacturonic acid residues with side chains containing galactose and/or arabinose residues. The structure of these side chains and the degree of substitution of rhamnose residues are extremely

Biophysical consequences of remodeling the neutral side chains of rhamnogalacturonan I in tubers of transgenic potatoes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Two lines of transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants modified in their cell wall structure were characterized and compared to wild type with regard to biomechanical properties in order to assign functional roles to the particular cell wall polysaccharides that were targeted by the genetic
