Potato lectin (Solanum tuberosum agglutinin, STA), purified by affinity chromatography on tri-N-acetylchitotriose-Sepharose 6B, has Mr approximately 100,000, as estimated by gel filtration on Sephadex G-150 and is an aggregating system with a monomer Mr = 54,000, as estimated by sedimentation
We have already reported that white-skinned sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) (WSSP) shows antidiabetic activity in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats and genetically diabetic models (yellow KK, db/db mice and Zucker fatty rats). In this study, isolation and purification of the antidiabetic
Several studies have reported the therapeutic use of caffeoylquinic acid (CQA) derivatives in the management of hyperglycemia. This study used a simulated in vitro gastrointestinal digestion model to assess the inhibitory effects of CQA derivatives-rich sweet potato leaf extract (SPLE) and a
The quantitative fate of chlorogenic acid (ChA) during enzymatic browning of potato juice was investigated. Potato juice was prepared in water without the use of any antibrowning agent (OX treatment). As a control, a potato juice was prepared in the presence of NaHSO(3) (S control). To study the
Potato acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) was used to remove the eight phosphate groups from alphas1-casein. Unlike most acid phosphatases, which are active at pH 6.0 or below, potato acid phosphatase can catalyze the dephosphorylation of alphas1-casein at pH 7.0. Although phosphate inhibition is
Potide-G, a small (5578.9 Da) antimicrobial peptide, was isolated from potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Golden Valley) through extraction of the water-soluble fraction, dialysis, ultrafiltration and DEAE-cellulose and C18 reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. This
Glutamate decarboxylase has been purified from potato tubers. The final preparation was homogeneous as judged from native and sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 gave a relative molecular mass Mr, of 91 000 for the native enzyme. Sodium dodecyl
Efficiency of an enzymatic starch saccharification process depends not only on the activity of the glucoamylase but also its purity. About 96.82% unwanted proteins present in 2-day old culture broth of A. awamori NRRL-3112 (grown in MYGP medium) were separated by precipitation with ammonium sulphate
Cinnamic acid-4-hydroxylase activation factor has been found to be located in the supernatant fraction of wounded potato tissue homogenate in phosphate buffer. The factor has been purified to homogeneity as judged by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, by heat treatment on boiling water-bath for
In our previous study, we have observed that the isolated coat proteins (CP) of the Potyvirus Potato Virus A (PVA) virions exhibit an intrinsic tendency to self-associate into various multimeric forms containing some fractions of cross-β-structure. In this report, we studied the effect of solution
Plant expression systems have advantages over other in vitro expression systems in terms of low production costs and low risk of contamination by animal viruses or bacterial endotoxins. In this study, cDNA encoding two subtypes of human interferon-alpha2b and 8 (HuIFN-alpha2b and HuIFN-alpha8) were
A 5.6 kDa trypsin-chymotrypsin protease inhibitor was isolated from the tubers of the potato (Solanum tuberosum L cv. Gogu) by extraction of the water-soluble fraction, dialysis, ultrafiltration, and C18 reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. This inhibitor, which we named potamin-1
To explain the cholesterol-reducing effects of dietary fibres, one of the major mechanisms proposed is the reduced reabsorption of bile acids in the ileum. The interaction of dietary fibres with bile acids is associated with their viscous or adsorptive effects. Since these fibre characteristics are
In this study, enzyme-assisted methodology was applied with the aim to optimise the efficiency of soluble dietary fibre (SDF) extraction from potato pulp. The yields of SDF pretreated by cellulase, xylanase, and a cellulase/xylanase mixture were 31.9% (w/w), 25.7% (w/w), and 39.7% (w/w)
An improved purification of the purple acid phosphatase from sweet potatoes has been developed, and the properties of the enzyme have been reexamined. Contrary to previous reports, (e.g., Y. Sugiura, et al., J. Biol. Chem., 256, 10664-10670 (1981) ), the enzyme contains two moles of iron and
