LITERATURE
agriculture
biofuel production
-
transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing the starch binding domains of starch synthase III have an advantage for the production of bioethanol in terms of saccharification of essential substrates
food industry
-
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
nutrition
-
analysis of the natural variations of isoforms granule-bound starch synthase GBSSI, starch synthases SSI and SSIIa and their effect on starch properties and eating quality of rice. Rice with the combinantion of the Wx allele for GBSSI and the alk allele for SSIIa has soft and sticky texture both after cooking and after storage. Variation of SSI alleles hardly affects the eating quality
