Also, there have been various impacts from the technology side relating to carbohydrate. For example, application of genetic engineering to the production of glycoproteins faced the problem of proper design and regulation of glycan chains in the glycoproteins for the production of biologically active molecule, On this background, the establishment of glycotechnology, a new field of biotechnology which aims to clarify the function of carbohydrate and utilize it, has been proposed mainly by Japanese researchers. Lectins which recognize and bind specific carbohydrates have two major roles in glycotechnology. Ore is the biological role as the molecule which recognizes the signal/marker written in a specific sugar sequences. Lectins are also important as valuable tools in various technology in the field of glycotechnology. In this article, the present situation on the studies of lectins is reviewed in relation to these two aspects.

Sago starch as a. neglected starch resource in tropical area and newly developed methodology during the study such as photopastegraphy, Q-amylase/pullulanase method (BAP method) are also described. 2) Fine structure of amylopectin: Fine structures of waxy maize starch were analyzed by structure of a-limit dextrin, X-ray diffraction and enzymic structural analysis of Naegeli amylodextrin, transmission electron microscopy and computer modeling. From the results of these studies, French proposed?gcluster model?hfor amylopectin molecules and Kainuma and French proposed?gdouble helix?hconformation for crystalline part of amylopectin. In 1980, Kainuma represented schematic arrangement of amylopectin molecules within a growth ring. 3) Novel starch related enzymes and oligosaccharides: During structural analysis, exo-maltohexaohydrolase (E. C. 3.2.1.98) was unexpectedly discovered as a contaminant of A. aero genes pullulanase. Since this discovery, our research efforts were concentrated to screen new starch related enzymes and enzymatic preparation of oligosaccharides. As the results, cyclodextrins and branched cyclodextrins, isomaltose, maltohexaose, erythritol -a noncaloric sweetener-were already commercially manufactured.

Pressurization at 100 MPa was favorable in improving the properties. For treatment of the grains with enzymes, actinase was more effective than cellulase and pectolyase. Actinase-treated grains, when cooked, gave a favorable result in terms of the stickiness/hardness ratio and brightness . Stickiness and brightness of cooked rice were developed by removing albumins and globulins from grains . In newly-harvested grains, the proteins were easily removed by extraction with water which contained rice-originating minerals. In aged grains, however, the proteins were already denatured and extracted with difficulty. Proteases hydrolyzed the denatured proteins to be extractable . As a result, starch granules existing on the surface of grains were liberated. Some proteases also hydrolyzed a starch granule-associated protein, and, consequently, made the starch highly gelatinized by heating. The protease treatment of aged grains was effective for two main reasons ; liberation of starch granules and removal of the granule-associated protein . During cooking of rice the liberated starch without the associated proteins gelatinized to give rise to stickiness . The gelatinized starch is considered to form a more isotropic film on the surface of every cooked rice grain to give brightness as well.","PeriodicalId":17372,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Japanese Society of Starch Science","volume":"124 1","pages":"163-168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86904396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
