摘要:
The present invention relates to genetically modified monocotyledonous plant cells and plants whose starch has an apparent amylose content of less than 5% by weight and an increased activity of a protein with the activity of a starch synthase II and an increased activity of a protein with the activity of a glucan, water dikinase. Such plants synthesize starch with an increased hot-water swelling power. Methods and processes for the generation/preparation of these plant cells, plants, starches and flours are likewise subject matter of the present invention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to maize starches with an apparent amylose content between 35 wt. % and 90 wt. % and improved processing properties relative to conventional high-amylose maize starches. Furthermore, the present invention relates to maize meals and foodstuffs containing these maize starches or maize meals. In addition, the present invention relates to methods of production of said maize starches/maize meals and maize plants which synthesize these maize starches. Moreover, the present invention relates to wheat starches with an apparent amylose content between 35 wt. % and 90 wt. % and improved processing properties, and wheat meals and foodstuffs containing said wheat starches or wheat meals. Moreover, the present invention relates to methods of production of said wheat starches/wheat meals and wheat plants which synthesize these wheat starches.
摘要:
The present invention relates to plant cells and plants, which are genetically modified, wherein the genetic modification leads to the expression in plastids of such plant cells and plants of an enzyme having the activity of a dextransucrase. Furthermore, the present invention relates to means and methods for the manufacture of such plant cells and plants. Plant cells and plants of this type synthesis a modified starch. The present invention therefore also relates to the starch synthesized by the plant cells and plants according to the invention as well as to methods for the manufacture of the starch and to the manufacture of starch derivatives of this modified starch.

The invention is directed to the use of alternan as a texturizing agent, particularly as a fat or oil replacer in foodstuffs or cosmetic preparations, a homogeneous composition comprising alternan and water, the use of the homogenous composition as a texturizing agent in foodstuffs or cosmetic preparations, and foodstuffs and cosmetic preparations comprising alternan as a texturizing agent or a homogeneous composition comprising alternan.
摘要:
The present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding enzymes which are involved in the starch synthesis in plants. These enzymes are starch synthases from wheat.The invention further relates to vectors and host cells containing said nucleic acid molecules, in particular transformed plant cells and plants regenerated from these cells, which exhibit an increased or a reduced activity of the described starch synthases.
摘要:
Transgenic plant cells and plants are described which synthesise a starch which is modified in comparison with corresponding wild type plant cells and plants. The plant cells and plants described show a reduced activity of R1, BEI and BEII proteins. Furthermore, modified starches as well as methods for their production are described.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for increasing the phosphate content of starches of genetically modified plant cells in comparison with starches from corresponding wild-type plant cells by introducing a foreign nucleic acid molecule which codes for a soluble starch synthase II. The present invention furthermore relates to the overexpression of this soluble starch synthase II in the genetically modified plant cells. Furthermore, the present invention relates to rice starch and rice flour with improved quality characteristics, to rice grains comprising this rice starch, and to rice plants on which these rice grains grow.
摘要:
The present invention relates to plant cells and plants, which are genetically modified, wherein the genetic modification leads to the reduction of the activity of a Class 3 vegetable branching enzyme in comparison with corresponding wild type plant cells or wild type plants that have not been genetically modified. Furthermore, the present invention relates to means and methods for the manufacture of such plant cells and plants. Plant cells and plants of this type synthesise a modified starch. The present invention therefore also relates to the starch synthesised by the plant cells and plants according to the invention as well as to methods for the manufacture of the starch and to the manufacture of starch derivatives of this starch. Furthermore, the present invention relates to nucleic acids coding a Class 3 branching enzyme, vectors, host cells, plant cells and plants containing such nucleic acid molecules.
摘要:
There is described a method for generating transgenic maize plants with an increased leaf starch content. Such plants are suitable for making an improved silage. There are furthermore described the use of the transgenic maize plants for making silage, and suitable ensiling methods using such plants.
