industry |
cyclodextrins are frequently utilized chemical substances in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and chemical industries. An enzymatic process for cyclodextrin production is developed by utilizing sucrose as raw material instead of corn starch. Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase from Paenibacillus macerans is applied to produce the cyclodextrins from linear alpha-(1,4)-glucans, which are obtained by Neisseria polysaccharea amylosucrase treatment on sucrose. The greatest cyclodextrin yield (21.1%, w/w) is achieved from a one-pot dual enzyme reaction at 40°C for 24 h. The maximum level of cyclodextrin production (15.1 mg/ml) is achieved with 0.5 M sucrose in a simultaneous mode of dual enzyme reaction, whereas the reaction with 0.1 M sucrose is the most efficient with regard to conversion yield. Dual enzyme synthesis of cyclodextrins is successfully carried out with no need of starch material. Efficient bioconversion process that does not require the high temperature necessary for starch liquefaction by thermostable alpha-amylase in conventional industrial processing |

resistant starch (RS) has the potential to protect against diabetes and reduce the incidence of diarrhea, inflammatory bowel disease, colon cancer, and chronic renal and hepatic diseases. Soluble starch synthase SSIIIa has a critical role in synthesizing resistant starch in rice |

food industry |
the disproportionating enzyme 4alphaGTase, is used to modify the structural properties of rice starch to produce a suitable fat substitute in reduced-fat mayonnaise. The mayonnaise fat is partially substituted with the 4alphaGTase-treated starch paste at levels up to 50% in combination with xanthan gum. All mayonnaises exhibit shear thinning behavior and yield stress. Viscoelastic properties of mayonnaise are altered, and the mayonnaises exhibited weak gel-like properties. The magnitude of elastic and loss moduli is also affected by 4alphaGTase-treated starch concentration and presence of xanthan gum, microstructure, method, overview |
2.4.1.B34 | 4,6-alpha-glucanotransferase |
food industry |
during the process of cooking wheat, semicrystallized chains of raw starch are hydrated into an amorphous form. After they have cooled for a sufficiently long period, linear molecules, amylose, and linear parts of amylopectin molecules expel water and rearrange into a more crystalline structure. This recrystallization, called retrogradation, often leads to the formation of hard and digestive enzyme-inaccessible textures in some wheat-based foods, resulting in poor sensory quality, short shelf life, and low consumer acceptance. After the GtfB-modified wheat starches are gelatinized and stored at 4°C for 1-2 weeks, their endothermic enthalpies are significantly lower than that of the control sample, indicating low retrogradation rates |
2.4.1.210 | limonoid glucosyltransferase |
food industry |
Limonoid glucosyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of bitter limonoid into non-bitter limonoid glucoside while retaining the health benefit of limonoids in the juice. The immobilization of this enzyme in a column can solve the juice bitterness problem |

food industry |
Citxadrus limonoid glucosyltransferase which is a key playxader for natural debitterness and anticancerous potenxadtial, can be utilized for metabolic engineering of Citxadrus limonoids to get rid of delayed bitterness problem along with enhanced limonoid glucoside molecules. The presence or absence of LGT can serve as a molecxadular indicator for determining the level of accumulaxadtion of limonoid glucoside and may reflect ultimately the possibility of delayed bitterness in available Citrus germplasm. Enhanced activity of LGT in citrus fruits may increase the glucoside level, which in turn will reduce the bitterness problem |
2.4.1.210 | limonoid glucosyltransferase |
food industry |
major problem in the orange industry is delayed bitterness, which is caused by limonin, a bitter compound developing from its non-bitter precursor limonoate A-ring lactone (LARL) during and after extraction of orange juice. The glucosidation of LARL by limonoid UDP-glucosyltransferase (LGT) to form non-bitter glycosyl-limonin during orange maturation has been demonstrated as a natural way to debitter by preventing the formation of limonin. Enzyme LGT activity can be used to develop biotechnology-based approaches for producing orange juice from varietals that traditionally have a delayed bitterness |
