Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene gftB, recombinant expression in Solanum tuberosum amylose-containing line Kardal and amylose-free mutant amf, the gene is cloned in frame with GBSSI transit peptide to allow amyloplast targeting and is driven by the potato GBSSI promoter for tuber expression, quantitative RT-PCR expression analysis Limosilactobacillus reuteri

additional information an (engineered) 4,6-alpha-glucanotransferase (GTFB) from Lactobacillus reuteri 121 is introduced into two potato genetic backgrounds: amylose-containing line Kardal and amylose-free mutant amf. The resulting starches show severe changes in granule morphology regardless of genetic backgrounds. Modified starches from amf background exhibit a significant increase in granule size and starch phosphate content relative to the control, while starches from Kardal background display a higher digestibility, but do not show changes in granule size and phosphate content. Transcriptome analysis reveal the existence of a mechanism to restore the regular packing of double helices in starch granules, which possibly results in the removal of novel glucose chains potentially introduced by the (engineered) GTFB. This amendment mechanics can also explain the difficulties to detect alterations in starch fine structure in the transgenic lines Limosilactobacillus reuteri

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function 4,6-alpha-glucanotransferase from Lactobacillus reuteri strain 121 (GTFB) can convert starch or starch hydrolysates into isomalto/maltopolysaccharides (IMMPs). This enzyme can transfer the non-reducing glucose moiety of an alpha-1,4 glucan chain to the non-reducing end of another alpha-glucan through alpha-1,6 linkages, generating a linear chain with alpha-1,6 linkages. This specific activity makes GTFB an interesting target enzyme for producing distict starches in planta Limosilactobacillus reuteri
