Abstract
The high gelatinization temperature (GT) of millet starch prevents the usage of infusion or step mashes as an effective means to generate fermentable sugars (FS) in brewing because the malt amylases lack thermostability at GT. Here, we investigate processing modifications to determine if millet starch can be efficiently degraded below GT. We determined that producing finer grists through milling did not introduce enough granule damage to markedly change gelatinization characteristics, though there was improved liberation of the endogenous enzymes. Alternatively, exogenous enzyme preparations were added to investigate their ability to degrade intact granules. At the recommended dosages (0.625 μL/g malt), significant FS concentrations were observed, although at lower concentrations and with a much-altered profile than possible with a typical wort. When exogenous enzymes were introduced at high (10×) addition rates, significant losses of granule birefringence and granule hollowing were observed well below GT, suggesting these exogenous enzymes can be utilized to digest millet malt starch below GT. The exogenous maltogenic α-amylase appears to drive the loss of birefringence, but more research is needed to understand the observed predominate glucose production.

Abstract
Dark fermentative biohydrogen production (DFBHP) has potential for utilization of rice starch wastewater (RSWW) as substrate. The hydrogen production of Enterobacter aerogenes MTCC 2822 and Clostridium acetobutylicum MTCC 11274, in pure culture and co-culture modes, was evaluated. The experiments were performed in a 2 L bioreactor, for a batch time of 120 h. The co-culture system resulted in highest cumulative hydrogen (1.13 L H2/L media) and highest yield (1.67 mol H2/mol glucose). Two parameters were optimized through response surface methodology (RSM)-substrate concentration (3.0-5.0 g/L) and initial pH (5.5-7.5), in a three-level factorial design. A total of 11 runs were performed in duplicate, which revealed that 4.0 g/L substrate concentration and 6.5 initial pH were optimal in producing hydrogen. The metabolites produced were acetic, butyric, propionic, lactic and isobutyric acids. The volumetric H2 productions, without and with pH adjustments, were 1.24 L H2/L media and 1.45 L H2/L media, respectively.

Abstract
Sweet potato starch (SPSt) was treated sequentially with the combination of maltogenic amylase (MA) and branching enzyme (BE) (MA → BE) or BE and MA (BE→MA) to modify its structural and physicochemical properties. Following the MA → BE and BE→MA modifications, the degree of branching was increased from 12.02 % to 44.06 %; whereas, the average chain length decreased from 18.02 to 12.32. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and digestive performance analysis indicated that the modifications reduced hydrogen bonds and increased resistant starch in SPSt. Rheological analysis revealed that the storage and loss moduli of the modified samples were lower than those of the control samples, except for starch treated with MA alone. X-ray diffraction measurements suggested that the re-crystallisation peak intensities of the enzyme-modified starches were lower than those of the untreated sample. The retrogradation resistance ability of the analysed samples followed the order: BE→MA-starches > MA → BE-starches > untreated starch. The relationship between the crystallisation rate constant and short branched chains (DP6-9) was well described by linear regression. This study provides a theoretical foundation for retarding the retrogradation of starch, which can improve food quality and extend the shelf-life of enzymatically modified starchy foods.

Abstract
Maltooligosaccharide-forming amylases (MFAs) hydrolyze starch into maltooligosaccharides with a defined degree of polymerization. However, the enzymatic mechanism underlying the product specificity remains partially understood. Here, we show that Saccharophagus degradans MFA (SdMFA) contains a noncatalytic starch-binding domain (SBD), which belongs to the carbohydrate-binding module family 20 and enables modulation of the product specificity. Removal of SBD from SdMFA resulted in a 3.5-fold lower production of the target maltopentaose. Conversely, appending SBD to another MFA from Bacillus megaterium improved the specificity for maltopentaose. SdMFA exhibited a higher level of exo-action and greater product specificity when reacting with amylopectin than with amylose. Our structural analysis and molecular dynamics simulation suggested that SBD could promote the recognition of nonreducing ends of substrates and delivery of the substrate chain to a groove end toward the active site in the catalytic domain. Furthermore, we demonstrate that a moderate temperature could mediate SBD to interact with the substrate with loose affinity, which facilitates the substrate to slide toward the active site. Together, our study reveals the structural and conditional bases for the specificity of MFAs, providing generalizable strategies to engineer MFAs and optimize the biosynthesis of maltooligosaccharides.

Abstract
To explore an effective and economic method to prepare higher contents of resistant starch (RS), different enzyme treatments including single pullulanase (PUL), commercial α-amylase (AA) or/and β-amylase (BA) with PUL, and malt endogenous amylase (MA) with PUL were used and the structural, physicochemical properties and digestibility of all modified starches (MS) were compared. All the enzyme-treated starches displayed a mixture of B and V-type diffraction patterns. The MA/PUL-MS showed higher V-type diffraction peak intensity as compared to other modified starches. Compared to the combination of commercial enzyme treatment, the combination of malt enzyme treatment led to higher apparent amylose contents (45.56%), RS content (53.93%) and thermal stability (302 °C), whereas it possessed lower solubility indices and predicted glycaemic index. The apparent viscosity and shear resistance of MA/PUL-MS were lower than that of AA/PUL-MS, whereas that of MA/PUL-MS was higher than that of BA/PUL-MS and BA/AA/PUL-MS. These findings would provide a theoretical and applicative basis to produce foods with lower GI in industrial production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2) is an exo-enzyme that shows high specificity for cleaving the α-1,4-glucosidic linkage of starch from the non-reducing end, thereby liberating maltose. In this study, we heterologously expressed and characterized a novel β-amylase from Bacillus aryabhattai. RESULTS The amino acid-sequence alignment showed that the enzyme shared the highest sequence identity with β-amylase from Bacillus flexus (80.73%) followed by Bacillus cereus (71.38%). Structural comparison revealed the existence of an additional starch-binding domain (SBD) at the C-terminus of B. aryabhattai β-amylase, which is notably different from plant β-amylases. The recombinant enzyme purified 4.7-fold to homogeneity, with a molecular weight of ~ 57.6 kDa and maximal activity at pH 6.5 and 50 °C. Notably, the enzyme exhibited the highest specific activity (3798.9 U/mg) among reported mesothermal microbial β-amylases and the highest specificity for soluble starch, followed by corn starch. Kinetic analysis showed that the Km and kcat values were 9.9 mg/mL and 116961.1 s- 1, respectively. The optimal reaction conditions to produce maltose from starch resulted in a maximal yield of 87.0%. Moreover, molecular docking suggested that B. aryabhattai β-amylase could efficiently recognize and hydrolyze maltotetraose substrate. CONCLUSIONS These results suggested that B. aryabhattai β-amylase could be a potential candidate for use in the industrial production of maltose from starch.

Abstract
Starch-acting α-glucanotransferase enzymes are of great interest for applications in the food industry. In previous work, we have characterized various 4,6- and 4,3-α-glucanotransferases of the glycosyl hydrolase (GH) family 70 (subfamily GtfB), synthesizing linear or branched α-glucans. Thus far, GtfB enzymes have only been identified in mesophilic Lactobacilli. Database searches showed that related GtfC enzymes occur in Gram-positive bacteria of the genera Exiguobacterium, Bacillus, and Geobacillus, adapted to growth at more extreme temperatures. Here, we report characteristics of the Geobacillus sp. 12AMOR1 GtfC enzyme, with an optimal reaction temperature of 60 °C and a melting temperature of 68 °C, allowing starch conversions at relatively high temperatures. This thermostable 4,6-α-glucanotransferase has a novel product specificity, cleaving off predominantly maltose units from amylose, attaching them with an (α1 → 6)-linkage to acceptor substrates. In fact, this GtfC represents a novel maltogenic α-amylase. Detailed structural characterization of its starch-derived α-glucan products revealed that it yielded a unique polymer with alternating (α1 → 6)/(α1 → 4)-linked glucose units but without branches. Notably, this Geobacillus sp. 12AMOR1 GtfC enzyme showed clear antistaling effects in bread bakery products.

Abstract
Efficient enzymatic hydrolysis of cereal starches requires a proper hydrothermal pre-treatment. For malted barley, however, the exact initial temperature is presently unknown. Therefore, samples were micro-mashed according to accurately determined gelatinization and pasting temperatures. The impact on starch morphology, mash viscometry and sugar yields was recorded in the presence and absence of an amylase inhibitor to differentiate between morphological and enzymatic effects. Mashing at gelatinization onset temperatures (54.5–57.1 °C) led to negligible morphological and viscometric changes, whereas mashing at pasting onset temperatures (57.5–59.8 °C) induced significant starch granule swelling and degradation resulting in increased sugar yields (61.7% of upper reference limit). Complete hydrolysis of A-type and partial hydrolysis of B-type granules was achieved within only 10 min of mashing at higher temperatures (61.4–64.5 °C), resulting in a sugar yield of 97.5% as compared to the reference laboratory method mashing procedure (65 °C for 60 min). The results indicate that the beginning of starch pasting was correctly identified and point out the potential of an adapted process temperature control.

Abstract
AbstractThe use of exogenous maltogenic α-amylases or maltotetraogenic amylases of bacterial origin is common in wheat bread production, mainly as antistaling agents to retard crumb firming. To study the impact of maltogenic α-amylase and maltotetraogenic amylase on straight dough wheat bread, we performed a discovery-driven proteomics approach with commercial enzyme preparations and identified the maltotetraogenic amylase P22963 from Pelomonas saccharophila and the maltogenic α-amylase P19531 from Geobacillus stearothermophilus, respectively, as being responsible for the amylolytic activity. Quantitation of mono-, di- and oligosaccharides and residual amylase activity in bread crumb during storage for up to 96 h clarified the different effects of residual amylase activity on the sugar composition. Compared to the control, the application of maltogenic α-amylase led to an increased content of maltose and especially higher maltooligosaccharides during storage. Residual amylase activity was detectable in the breads containing maltogenic α-amylase, whereas maltotetraogenic amylase only had a very low residual activity. Despite the residual amylase activities and changes in sugar composition detected in bread crumb, our results do not allow a definite evaluation of a potential technological function in the final product. Rather, our study contributes to a fundamental understanding of the relation between the specific amylases applied, their residual activity and the resulting changes in the saccharide composition of wheat bread during storage.

Abstract
In the crumb of fresh white wheat bread, starch is fully gelatinized. Its molecular and three-dimensional structure are major factors limiting the rate of its digestion. The aim of this study was to in situ modify starch during bread making with starch-modifying enzymes (maltogenic amylase and amylomaltase) and to investigate the impact thereof on bread characteristics, starch retrogradation and digestibility. Maltogenic amylase treatment increased the relative content of short amylopectin chains (degree of polymerization ≤ 8). This resulted in lower starch retrogradation and crumb firmness upon storage, and reduced extent (up to 18%) of in vitro starch digestion for fresh and stored breads. Amylomaltase only modestly shortened amylose chains and had no measurable impact on amylopectin structure. Modification with this enzyme led to slower bread crumb firming but did not influence starch digestibility.

Abstract
A raw starch digesting α-amylase from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) intestine was identified. The α-amylase, AMY-T, had an estimated molecular weight of 60 kDa and purified to near homogeneity. AMY-T showed an apparent KM 4.78 mg/mL and Vmax 0.44 mg/mL/min) towards soluble starch. It was highly stable for 24 h in the pH range 3.0-10.0, and to solvents like methanol, isopropanol, butanol, dimethylformamide, DMSO and ethyl-ether. AMY-T was able to digest different carbohydrates, mainly showing endo-activity. Importantly, AMY-T was catalytically efficient and adsorbing towards raw potato starch at temperature documented for other raw starch digesting α-amylases. Thin layer and anion exchange chromatography characterization showed that the end products of raw starch hydrolysis were glucose, maltose and maltodextrins, with degree of polymerisation ranging 1-8. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of the AMY-T treated starch granules documented both granular exo- and endo-attack by AMY-T. These catalytic capabilities suggest high potential for AMY-T for industrial use.

Abstract
The fine molecular structure of starch governs its functionality and digestibility, and enzymatic approaches can be utilized to tailor its properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the in situ modification of starch by amylomaltase (AMM) from Thermus thermophilus in model starch systems subjected to hydrothermal treatments under standardized conditions and the relationship between molecular structure, rheological properties and in vitro digestibility. When low dosages of AMM were added to a wheat starch suspension prior to submitting it to a temperature-time profile in a Rapid Visco Analyzer, the increased peak viscosity observed was attributed to partial depolymerization of amylose, which facilitated starch swelling and viscosity development. At higher dosages, the effect was smaller. The low cold paste viscosity as a result of the activity of AMM reflected substantial amylose depolymerization. At the same time, amylopectin chains were substantially elongated. The longer amylopectin chains were positively correlated (R2 = 0.96) with the melting enthalpies of retrograded starches, which, in turn, were negatively correlated with the extent (R2 = 0.92) and rate (R2 = 0.79) of in vitro digestion. It was concluded that AMM has the potential to be used to deliver novel starch functionalities and enhance its nutritional properties.

Abstract
To obtain porous starch granules with higher absorption capacities, three types of enzyme combinations were adopted to modify wheat and maize starches: (1) sequential α-amylase (AA) → glucoamylase (GA); (2) sequential branching enzyme (BE) → GA; and (3) sequential AA→BE→GA. The results indicated that AA→BE→GA treatment had a most optimal influence on porous starches. Compared to AA→GA and BE→GA, the mesopores in wheat starch granules treated with AA→BE→GA decreased by 52.82 and 48.70%, respectively. Conversely, the macropores increased by 216.68 and 138.18%, respectively. While for maize starch, the percentages of mesopores and macropores hardly changed after three enzyme combinations. Comparing the three enzyme treatments showed that pore volume (0.005 and 0.007 cm3/g) and pore size (36.35 and 26.54 nm) were largest in the AA→BE→GA treated wheat and maize starches, respectively. Compared to the AA→GA and BE→GA, the adsorption capacities for oil, dye and heavy metal ions, wheat starch treated with AA→BE→GA increased by 46.61 and 242.33%, and 44.52 and 134.41%, and 28.83 and 271.72%, respectively. Correspondingly, that of maize starch increased by 29.71 and 133.29%, and 42.92 and 79.93%, and 28.16 and 161.43%, respectively. These results may provide a new and valuable enzyme combination for optimising porous starch granules with higher absorption capacities.

Abstract
Maltogenic amylase suppressed starch retrogradation in baked products. Here, a maltogenic amylase-producing strain of bacteria was screened and identified as Bacillus licheniformis R-53. Its coding gene was cloned and over-expressed in Bacillus subtilis WB600. Recombinant maltogenic amylase BLMA exhibited activity of 3235 U/mg under optimal conditions (60 °C and pH 6.5), with a good thermostability and pH stability. Mixolab experiment showed that a concentration of 60 ppm BLMA significantly improved the operating characteristics of dough. Baking test indicated the recombinant BLMA reduced bread hardness by 2.12 times compared with the control. Compared with maltogenic amylase from Novozymes (Novamyl 3D BG) and Angel Yeast Co. Ltd. (MAM100), BLMA has better effect on improving the bread volume, and almost the same effect on reducing hardness, improving elasticity and maintaining sensory as Novamyl 3D BG. Adding BLMA improved bread quality, increased bread volume and decreased hardness during storage, thus extending its shelf life.

Abstract
Enzymatic degradation of abundant renewable polysaccharides such as cellulose and starch is a field that has the attention of both the industrial and scientific community. Most of the polysaccharide degrading enzymes are classified into several glycoside hydrolase families. They are often organized in a modular manner which includes a catalytic domain connected to one or more carbohydrate-binding modules. The carbohydrate-binding modules (CBM) have been shown to increase the proximity of the enzyme to its substrate, especially for insoluble substrates. Therefore, these modules are considered to enhance enzymatic hydrolysis. These properties have played an important role in many biotechnological applications with the aim to improve the efficiency of polysaccharide degradation. The domain organization of glycoside hydrolases (GHs) equipped with one or more CBM does vary within organisms. This review comprehensively highlights the presence of CBM as ancillary modules and explores the diversity of GHs carrying one or more of these modules that actively act either on cellulose or starch. Special emphasis is given to the cellulase and amylase distribution within the filamentous microorganisms from the genera of Streptomyces and Aspergillus that are well known to have a great capacity for secreting a wide range of these polysaccharide degrading enzyme. The potential of the CBM and other ancillary domains for the design of improved polysaccharide decomposing enzymes is discussed.

Abstract
The β-amylase was encapsulated in emulsion liquid membrane (ELM), which acted as a reactor for conversion of starch to maltose. The membrane phase was consisted of surfactant (span 80), stabilizer (polystyrene), carrier for maltose transport (methyl cholate) and solvent (xylene). The substrate starch in feed phase entered into the internal phase by the process of diffusion and hydrolyzed to maltose by encapsulated β-amylase. Methyl cholate present in the membrane acts as a carrier for the product maltose, which helps in transport of maltose to feed phase from internal aqueous phase. The residual activity of β-amylase after the five-reaction cycle was found to decrease to ∼70%, which indicated possibility to recycle the components of the emulsion and enzyme. The pH and temperature of the encapsulated enzyme were found to be optimum at 5.5 and 60 °C, respectively. The novelty of the present work lies in the development of Enzyme Emulsion Liquid Membranes (EELM) bioreactor for the hydrolysis of starch into maltose mediated by encapsulated β-amylase. The attempt has been made for the first time for the successful encapsulation of β-amylase into EELM. The best results gave the highest residual enzyme activity (94.1%) and maltose production (29.13 mg/mL).

Abstract
AbstractAn assay-based method was developed to determine the residual activity of the maltogenic amylase from Geobacillus stearothermophilus in white bread. It was found that the important step for amylase extraction from the bread matrix was the addition of 10% (w/v) maltodextrin in the extraction buffer. The endogenous amylase activity in dough was investigated, and its inactivation during bread baking was proven. Thus, all amylase activities measured after baking have an exogenous origin. The amylase activities in the loaf of self-baked white bread containing defined dosages of exogenous amylase (10–100 μg per g flour) were reproducibly determined with 17.8 ± 1.24% residual activity. Moreover, an amylase activity of 369 ± 34.3 pkat gbread−1 was determined in three batches of a commercial white bread. The real temperature impact on the amylase during bread baking was investigated. The highest temperature in the crumb was 97 °C and, therefore, is significantly lower than the oven temperature (230 °C).

Abstract
The maltooligosaccharide-forming amylases (MFAses) degrade starch into maltooligosaccharides which potentially benefit human diet and grow popular in food processing, but little has been studied about their product specificity and structures. We focused on this topic and provide evidence through an X-ray crystal structure of the maltotetraose (G4)-forming amylase from Pseudomonas saccharophila STB07 (MFAps), as well as co-crystal structures of MFAps with G4 and with pseudo-maltoheptaose (pseudo-G7) determined at up to 1.1 Å resolution. G4 and pseudo-G7 occupy active cleft subsites -4 to -1 and -4 to +3 respectively. Binding induces conformational changes in the active sites except Asp193, working as the base catalyst. Comparison of the MFAps structure with those of other α-amylases revealed obvious differences in the loop structures providing dominant interactions between protein and substrate in the non-reducing side of the active sites cleft. These structures at the non-reducing end may govern the G4 specificity of MFAps and also be relevant to its exo-type action pattern.

Abstract
The roles of native and damaged starch (DS) during fermented pastry making were examined by increasing the level of DS in wheat flour by ball-milling and/or by including amylase in the recipe. Increased DS levels increase laminated dough strength presumably by making less water available for the gluten. This effect was partly overcome by amylase use. During baking, a reduced resistance of the dough to gas cell expansion, as a result of enzymatic starch hydrolysis, seems responsible for increased pastry lift and improved crumb structure. Gelatinization of intact starch limits dough lift and expansion. Even at high amylase dosages structural collapse was limited, which suggests a significant role for gluten in pastry product structure formation. Differential scanning calorimetry and low-resolution 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance experiments indicated that increased levels of starch damage and amylase use impact the amylose network in the product and respectively increase and decrease the extent to which amylopectin retrogrades during storage. PRACTICAL APPLICATION This research article evaluates the role of intact and damaged wheat starch during the production of fermented pastry products. An expanded knowledge on starch functionality during the different pastry production steps allows for a targeted selection of additives to improve product quality and production efficiency. The results obtained in this study can contribute to the realization of industrially feasible solutions for the production of quality pastry products.

Effect of sweet potato endogenous amylase activation on in vivo energy bioavailability and acceptability of soy-enriched orange-fleshed sweet potato complementary porridges. Food Sci Nutr 2018; 6:1119-1127. [PMID: 29983976 PMCID: PMC6021734 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.653] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2018] [Revised: 03/12/2018] [Accepted: 03/25/2018] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Energy bioavailability can be influenced by food matrix factors and processing conditions or treatments. In this study, the effects of endogenous sweet potato amylase enzyme activation and slurry solids content of soy-enriched orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) porridges on in vivo energy bioavailability (energy, weight gain, and feed efficiency ratio) and porridge acceptability were determined. Fifty-six weanling albino rats were randomly assigned to two blocks each having eight groups of seven rats. The rats were housed in individual cages in a well-ventilated animal house. The intervention block had rats fed on activated porridges (held at 75°C for 15 min), while rats in the control block were fed on nonactivated porridges (boiled at 90-95°C for 10 min). The rats were fed for 28 days on 50 ml of porridge per rat per day. The four groups per block were each fed on porridges with varying amounts of total solids content (10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%). Weight gain, energy bioavailability, and feed efficiency ratio were determined at the end of the feeding period. Consumer acceptability of activated and nonactivated porridges at 25% solids content was determined using a nontrained human panel (n = 40). Activation of amylases did not significantly (p > .05) affect the bioavailable energy, cumulative weight gain, and feed efficiency of the rats. Increasing slurry solids content of activated and nonactivated porridges significantly (p < .05) increased feed efficiency ratio (-14.6 ± 11.7 to 102.3 ± 2.3), weight gain (-1.4 to 5.6 g ± 1.9 g), and bioavailable energy (702.8 ± 16.2 to 1242.8 ± 12.2 kcal). Activation of amylases reduced porridge viscosity but did not significantly influence the overall acceptability. This work demonstrates the opportunity of utilizing sweet potato amylases to facilitate the preparation of complementary porridges with appropriate viscosity and increased energy density.

Abstract
A strain of Lactobacillus fermentum producing two isozymes of a 20kDa β-amylase was isolated from the faecal sample of a newborn. The starin was identified by sequencing its 16S rRNA gene. The two β-amylase isozymes were resolved and visualized by two dimensional protein gel electrophoresis (2-D gel electrophoresis). Some of the physical and biochemical properties of the enzymes were characterized. The β-amylase displayed two optimum pH s, 5.0 and 10.0 and two optimum temperatures, 45°C and 37°C, respectively. The isozymes hydrolyzed different substrates: glycogen at pH 5.0, and corn starch at pH 10.0. The activity did not require Ca2+, though the activity at pH 10.0 was enhanced in the presence of 5.0mM and 10.0mM CaCl2, 110% and 130%, respectively.

Abstract
The immobilization of maltogenic α-amylase from Bacillus stearothermophilus (BsMa) onto novel porous poly(urethane urea) (PUU) microparticles synthesized from poly(vinyl alcohol) and isophorone diisocyanate was performed by covalent attachment to free isocyanate groups from PUU microparticles, or by physical adsorption of enzyme onto the surface of the carrier. The influence of structure, surface area and porosity of microparticles on the catalytic properties of immobilized BsMa was evaluated. The highest efficiency of immobilization of BsMa was found to be 72%. Optimal activity of immobilized BsMa was found to have increased by 10°C compared with the native enzyme. Influence of concentration of sodium chloride on activity of immobilized BsMa was evaluated. High storage and thermal stability and reusability for starch hydrolysis of immobilized enzyme were obtained. Immobilized BsMa has a great potential for biotechnology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During wheat milling, starch granules can experience mechanical damage, producing damaged starch. High levels of damaged starch modify the physicochemical properties of wheat flour, negatively affecting the dough behavior as well as the flour quality and cookie and bread making quality. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of α-amylase, maltogenic amylase and amyloglucosidase on dough rheology in order to propose alternatives to reduce the issues related to high levels of damaged starch. RESULTS The dough with a high level of damaged starch became more viscous and resistant to deformations as well as less elastic and extensible. The soluble fraction of the doughs influenced the rheological behavior of the systems. The α-amylase and amyloglucosidase reduced the negative effects of high damaged starch contents, improving the dough rheological properties modified by damaged starch. The rheological behavior of dough with the higher damaged-starch content was related to a more open gluten network arrangement as a result of the large size of the swollen damaged starch granules. CONCLUSION We can conclude that the dough rheological properties of systems with high damaged starch content changed positively as a result of enzyme action, particularly α-amylase and amyloglucosidase additions, allowing the use of these amylases and mixtures of them as corrective additives. Little information was reported about amyloglucosidase activity alone or combined with α-amylase. The combinations of these two enzymes are promising to minimize the negative effects caused by high levels of damaged starch on product quality. More research needs to be done on bread quality combining these two enzymes. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Background Bacillus subtilis is an important cell factory for the biotechnological industry due to its ability to secrete commercially relevant proteins in large amounts directly into the growth medium. However, hyper-secretion of proteins, such as α-amylases, leads to induction of the secretion stress-responsive CssR-CssS regulatory system, resulting in up-regulation of the HtrA and HtrB proteases. These proteases degrade misfolded proteins secreted via the Sec pathway, resulting in a loss of product. The aim of this study was to investigate the secretion stress response in B. subtilis 168 cells overproducing the industrially relevant α-amylase AmyM from Geobacillus stearothermophilus, which was expressed from the strong promoter P(amyQ)-M. Results Here we show that activity of the htrB promoter as induced by overproduction of AmyM was “noisy”, which is indicative for heterogeneous activation of the secretion stress pathway. Plasmids were constructed to allow real-time analysis of P(amyQ)-M promoter activity and AmyM production by, respectively, transcriptional and out-of-frame translationally coupled fusions with gfpmut3. Our results show the emergence of distinct sub-populations of high- and low-level AmyM-producing cells, reflecting heterogeneity in the activity of P(amyQ)-M. This most likely explains the heterogeneous secretion stress response. Importantly, more homogenous cell populations with regard to P(amyQ)-M activity were observed for the B. subtilis mutant strain 168degUhy32, and the wild-type strain 168 under optimized growth conditions. Conclusion Expression heterogeneity of secretory proteins in B. subtilis can be suppressed by degU mutation and optimized growth conditions. Further, the out-of-frame translational fusion of a gene for a secreted target protein and gfp represents a versatile tool for real-time monitoring of protein production and opens novel avenues for Bacillus production strain improvement.

Abstract
A novel maltose (G2)-forming α-amylase from Lactobacillus plantarum subsp. plantarum ST-III was expressed in Escherichia coli and characterized. Analysis of conserved amino acid sequence alignments showed that L. plantarum maltose-producing α-amylase (LpMA) belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 13. The recombinant enzyme (LpMA) was a novel G2-producing α-amylase. The properties of purified LpMA were investigated following enzyme purification. LpMA exhibited optimal activity at 30 °C and pH 3.0. It produced only G2 from the hydrolysis of various substrates, including maltotriose (G3), maltopentaose (G5), maltosyl β-cyclodextrin (G2-β-CD), amylose, amylopectin, and starch. However, LpMA was unable to hydrolyze cyclodextrins. Reaction pattern analysis using 4-nitrophenyl-α-d-maltopentaoside (pNPG5) demonstrated that LpMA hydrolyzed pNPG5 from the nonreducing end, indicating that LpMA is an exotype α-amylase. Kinetic analysis revealed that LpMA had the highest catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km ratio) toward G2-β-CD. Compared with β-amylase, a well-known G2-producing enzyme, LpMA produced G2 more efficiently from liquefied corn starch due to its ability to hydrolyze G3.
