Mogoginta JG, Murai T, Annor GA. Starch Characteristics and Amylopectin Unit and Internal Chain Profiles of Indonesian Rice ( Oryza sativa). Foods 2024; 13:2422.

Abstract
Indonesia is arguably a major player in worldwide rice production. Though white rice is the most predominantly cultivated, red, brown, and red rice are also very common. These types of rice are known to have different cooking properties that may be related to differences in their starch properties. Investigating the starch properties, especially the fine structure of their amylopectin, can help understand these differences. This study aims to investigate the starch characteristics of some Indonesian rice varieties by evaluating the starch granule morphology and size, molecular characteristics, amylopectin unit and internal chain profiles, and thermal properties. Starches were extracted from white rice (long grain (IR-64) and short grain (IR-42)), brown rice, red rice, and black rice cultivated in Java Island, Indonesia. IR-42 had the highest amylose content of 39.34% whilst the black rice had the least of 1.73%. The enthalpy of gelatinization and onset temperature of the gelatinization of starch granules were between 3.2 and 16.2 J/g and 60.1 to 73.8 °C, respectively. There were significant differences between the relative molar amounts of the internal chains of the samples. The two white rice and black rice had a significantly higher amount of A-chains, but a lower amount of B-chains and fingerprint B-chains (Bfp) than the brown and red rice. The average chain length (CL), short chain length (SCL), and external chain length (ECL) were significantly longer for the red rice and the black rice in comparison to both the white rice amylopectins. The long chain length (LCL) and internal chain length (ICL) of the sample amylopectins were similar. Rice starches were significantly different in the internal structure but not as much in their amylopectin unit chain profile. These results suggest the differences in their amylopectin clusters and building blocks.

Bertoft E, Annor G, Vamadevan V, Lin AHM. On the architecture of starch granules revealed by iodine vapor binding and lintnerization. Part 1: Microscopic examinations. Biopolymers 2024:e23610. [PMID: 38953406 DOI: 10.1002/bip.23610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024]
Abstract
Structural nature of glucan chains in the amorphous part of granular starch was examined by iodine vapor treatment and lintnerization. Four iodine-stained amylose-containing normal starches and their waxy counterparts were examined under a microscope before, during, and after lintnerization. The presence of amylose retarded the lintnerization rate. The degree of retardation correlated with the structural type of the amylopectin component, suggesting that potato amylopectin (type 4 structure) interacts with amylose in the granules, whereas in barley granules (type 1 structure) the interaction is very weak. The inclusion complexes with iodine were not degraded by the acid treatment. Therefore, the iodine-glucan chain complex formation could be used to study the structural nature of the flexible, amorphous parts of the starch granules. Indeed, at the end of lintnerization, when 20%-30% of the granules remained, substantial amounts of blue-stained complexes were washed out from the granules especially from amylose-containing barley and maize starch, but also from both normal and waxy cassava and potato starch. The complexation with iodine did not affect the rate of lintnerization. This suggested that single helical structures were present during lintnerization also in the absence of iodine and this conformation was the reason for the acid resistance.

Abstract
The retrogradation of starch is crucial for the texture and nutritional value of starchy foods products. There is mounting evidence highlighting the significant impact of starch's fine structures on starch retrogradation. Because of the complexity of starch fine structure, it is a formidable challenge to study the structure-property relationship of starch retrogradation. Several models have been proposed over the years to facilitate understanding of starch structure. In this review, from the perspective of starch models, the intricate structure-property relationship is sorted into the correlation between different types of structural parameters and starch retrogradation performance. Amylopectin B chains with DP 24-36 and DP ≥36 exhibit a higher tendency to form ordered crystalline structures, which promotes starch retrogradation. The chains with DP 6-12 mainly inhibit starch retrogradation. Based on the building block backbone model, a longer inter-block chain length (IB-CL) enhances the realignment and reordering of starch. The mathematical parameterization model reveals a positive correlation between amylopectin medium chains, amylose short chains, and amylose long chains with starch retrogradation. The review is structured according to starch models; this contributes to a clear and comprehensive elucidation of the structure-property relationship, thereby providing valuable references for the selection and utilization of starch.

Abstract
Nano starch exhibits many advantages for application in diverse fields. Amaranth starch consisted of starch particle aggregates, isolated amaranth starch, and few natural nano starch (NNS), while NNS (0.92 ± 0.12 μm) was successfully isolated for the first time. Compared with the isolated amaranth starch, NNS showed smaller particle size but larger molecular weight, suggesting that the molecules arranged densely. NNS had a weak A-type crystal structure because of its more content of short starch chains, but higher amylose content resulted in the increase of its gelatinization temperature. The special NNS, owning several different physicochemical properties from amaranth starch, can open new ways for the production and application of nano biomass materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, increasing importance has been attracted to healthy food enriched in resistant starch (RS), which has great benefits in health-promoting. Raw potato has rich RS2, whereas most RS2 may become digestible after gelatinization, resulting in few RS being left in processed potato. Breeding potatoes with high RS2 or RS3 or both can meet the demand for various healthy potato products. RESULTS There were apparent discrepancies among three potatoes with contrast RS2 and RS3 content in thermal properties, viscosity and digestibility. ZS-5 had the highest RS2 with 50.17% but the lowest RS3 with 3.31%. Meanwhile, ZS-5 had the largest starch granule, the highest proportion of B3, viscosity and hardness, and the highest digestibility. DN303 with the highest content of RS3 (5.08%) had the lowest hardness and fracturability. MG56-42 with both higher RS2 and RS3 content showed the highest resistance to digestion and moderate hardness and fracturability. CONCLUSION The present study enriches the potential resources and provides a reliable scientific basis for high RS potatoes breeding. The various features of different potatoes make it possible to screen potatoes according to different demands. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Slowly digestible starches have received interest due to their lower increase of postprandial blood glucose and insulin levels and, hence, modification of starches towards slower digestibility has commercial interest. However, chemical characteristics driving enzymatic (digestive) degradation are not fully unraveled. The digestion properties of starches have been linked to their crystalline type, chain length distribution, amylose content or degree of branching, but content and length of relatively long side-chains in amylopectin has not been paid attention to. Therefore, this research focusses on the unique content and length of amylopectin side-chains from conventional and new starch sources (potato, corn, pea, and tulip) correlated to the enzymatic digestion. The rate of hydrolysis was found to be correlated with the crystalline type of starch, as previously suggested, however, the complete hydrolysis of all starches, independent of the crystalline type and source, was shown to be governed by the content of longer amylopectin chains.

Abstract
The relationship between molecular structure and crystalline and lamellar structures of fifteen types of rice starches was studied. GPC and HPAEC were used for the molecular chain analysis and WAXS, SAXS, and CP/MAS 13C NMR were employed for aggregation structural analysis. The amylopectin content and the average lengths of fb1-chains (the degree of polymerization (DP) 13-24) were positively correlated with the amount of double helices (r2 = 0.92 and 0.57, respectively). In contrast, amylose content was positively correlated with the amounts of amorphous materials in starch (r2 = 0.77). The amount of double helices, which constitute a major part of the crystalline matrix, was positively correlated with the lamellar ordering (r2 = 0.81), and negatively correlated with the thickness of crystalline lamellae (r2 = 0.90) and lamellar repeat distance (r2 = 0.84). Conversely, the amount of the amorphous matrix was correlated with these parameters in the opposite way (r2 = 0.50, 0.75, and 0.75, respectively).

Abstract
This work focused on the physicochemical properties of isolated Amaranth starch. Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) showed that amaranth is low-lipid calcium and magnesium source for the human diet. Scanning Electron Microscopy showed that isolated granules are in the range of sub and micro size. DSC starch thermogram showed a gelatinization temperature of 67.9 °C and an enthalpy of 10. 6 J/g suggesting the presence of an ordered crystalline structures. High-resolution X-ray diffraction showed the isolated starch contents nanocrystals with an orthorhombic crystalline structure whose pattern was indexed. The pasting profile showed that this kind of starch has an end cold viscosity as a custard, making it useful for infantile formulations. It does not present dynamic viscosity and would not be a problem when swallowed. A very important finding in this work was that the orthorhombic nanocrystals, after solvation during gelatinization, do not contribute to the apparent viscosity development.

Abstract
Starch is a water-insoluble polymer of glucose synthesized as discrete granules inside the stroma of plastids in plant cells. Starch reserves provide a source of carbohydrate for immediate growth and development, and act as long term carbon stores in endosperms and seed tissues for growth of the next generation, making starch of huge agricultural importance. The starch granule has a highly complex hierarchical structure arising from the combined actions of a large array of enzymes as well as physicochemical self-assembly mechanisms. Understanding the precise nature of granule architecture, and how both biological and abiotic factors determine this structure is of both fundamental and practical importance. This review outlines current knowledge of granule architecture and the starch biosynthesis pathway in relation to the building block-backbone model of starch structure. We highlight the gaps in our knowledge in relation to our understanding of the structure and synthesis of starch, and argue that the building block-backbone model takes accurate account of both structural and biochemical data.

Abstract
Starch is a major food supply for humanity. It is produced in seeds, rhizomes, roots and tubers in the form of semi-crystalline granules with unique properties for each plant. Though the size and morphology of the granules is specific for each plant species, their internal structures have remarkably similar architecture, consisting of growth rings, blocklets, and crystalline and amorphous lamellae. The basic components of starch granules are two polyglucans, namely amylose and amylopectin. The molecular structure of amylose is comparatively simple as it consists of glucose residues connected through α-(1,4)-linkages to long chains with a few α-(1,6)-branches. Amylopectin, which is the major component, has the same basic structure, but it has considerably shorter chains and a lot of α-(1,6)-branches. This results in a very complex, three-dimensional structure, the nature of which remains uncertain. Several models of the amylopectin structure have been suggested through the years, and in this review two models are described, namely the “cluster model” and the “building block backbone model”. The structure of the starch granules is discussed in light of both models.

Abstract
Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) is an enzyme that produces cyclodextrins (CDs) from starch and related carbohydrates, producing a mixture of α-, β-, and γ-CDs in different amounts. CGTase production, mainly by Bacillus sp., depends on fermentation conditions such as pH, temperature, concentration of nutrients, carbon and nitrogen sources, among others. Bacillus megaterium CGTase produces those three types of CDs, however, β-CD should prevail. Although, waxy corn starch (CS) is used industrially to obtain CGTase and CDs because of its high amylopectin content, alternative sources such as amaranth starch (AS) could be used to accomplish those purposes. AS has high susceptibility to the amylolytic activity of CGTase because of its 80% amylopectin content. Therefore, the aim of this work was evaluate the AS as carbon source for CGTase production by B. megaterium in a submerged fermentation. Afterwards, the CGTase was purified partially and its activity to synthesize α-, β-, and γ-CDs was evaluated using 1% AS as substrate. B. megaterium produced a 66 kDa CGTase (Topt = 50°C; pHopt = 8.0), from the early exponential growth phase which lasted 36 h. The maximum CGTase specific activity (106.62 ± 8.33 U/mg protein) was obtained after 36 h of culture. CGTase obtained with a Km = 0.152 mM and a Vmax = 13.4 μM/min yielded 40.47% total CDs using AS which was roughly twice as much as that of corn starch (CS; 24.48%). High costs to produce CDs in the pharmaceutical and food industries might be reduced by using AS because of its higher α-, β- and γ-CDs production (12.81, 17.94, and 9.92%, respectively) in a shorter time than that needed for CS.

Abstract
Phytoglycogen (PG), a dendrimer-like glucan particulate, has a much higher dispersed molecular density than amylopectin (AP). In this study, β-amylase was used to investigate the effect of high molecular density of PG on its susceptibility to enzymatic hydrolysis. AP and PG reached the limit of β-amylolysis at 20 and 480 min, respectively, suggesting a much higher resistance of PG to β-amylase. The majority of PG β-amylolysis occurred in the initial 2 min, followed by a slow progression that implied low accessibility of internal particulate portion to enzyme. The chain length profile of PG β-limit dextrin showed only one population of long chains, indicating the absence of branch clusters with PG. At the limit of β-amylolysis, a substantial decrease in the molar mass was observed for both PG and AP, whereas only a slight reduction in the Z-average root mean square radius was observed for PG (from 24.5 to 23.1 nm) compared to that of AP (from 91.1 to 69.6 nm).

Abstract
Little is known about the thermal properties and internal molecular structure of transitory starch. In this study, granule morphology, thermal properties, and the cluster structure of Arabidopsis leaf starch at beginning and end of the light period were explored. The structural properties of building blocks and clusters were evaluated by using diverse chromatographic techniques. On the granular level, starch from end of day had larger granule size, thinner crystalline lamellae thickness, lower free surface energy of crystals, and lower tendency to retrograde than that from end of night. On the molecular level, the starch had lower amylose content, larger cluster size, and higher number of blocks per cluster at the end of day than at end of night. It is concluded that the core of the granules contains a more permanent molecular and less-ordered physical structure different from the transitory layers laid down around the core at daytime.

Abstract
Branches in amylopectin are distributed along the backbone. Units of the branches are building blocks (smaller) and clusters (larger) based on the distance between branches. In this study, composition of clusters and building blocks of amylopectins from dull1 maize mutants deficient in starch synthase III (SSIII) with a common genetic background (W64A) were characterized and compared with the wild type. Clusters were produced from amylopectins by partial hydrolysis using α-amylase of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and were subsequently treated with phosphorylase a and β-amylase to produce φ,β-limit dextrins. Clusters were further extensively hydrolyzed with the α-amylase to produce building blocks. Structures of clusters and building blocks were analyzed by diverse chromatographic techniques. The results showed that the dull1 mutation resulted in larger clusters with more singly branched building blocks. The average cluster contained ~5.4 blocks in dull1 mutants and ~4.2 blocks in the wild type. The results are compared with previous results from SSIII-deficient amo1 barley and suggest fundamental differences in the cluster structures.

Abstract
Molecular structures of starches from dull1 maize mutants deficient in starch synthase III (SSIII) with a common genetic background (W64A) were characterized and compared with the wild type. Amylose content with altered structure was higher in the nonwaxy mutants (25.4-30.2%) compared to the wild type maize (21.5%) as revealed by gel permeation chromatography. Superlong chains of the amylopectin component were found in all nonwaxy samples. Unit chain length distribution of amylopectins and their φ,β-limit dextrins (reflecting amylopectin internal structure) from dull1 mutants were also characterized by anion-exchange chromatography after debranching. Deficiency of SSIII led to an increased amount of short chains (DP ≤36 in amylopectin), whereas the content of long chains decreased from 8.4% to between 3.1 and 3.7% in both amylopectin and φ,β-limit dextrins. Moreover, both the external and internal chain lengths decreased, suggesting a difference in their cluster structures. Whereas the molar ratio of A:B-chains was similar in all samples (1.1-1.2), some ratios of chain categories were affected by the absence of SSIII, notably the ratio of "fingerprint" A-chains to "clustered" A-chains. This study highlighted the relationship between SSIII and the internal molecular structure of maize starch.
