Starch is the most significant form of carbon reserve in plants in terms of the amount made,
the universality of its distribution among different plant species, and its commercial …

▪ Abstract This review describes and discusses the implications of recent discoveries about
how starch polymers are synthesized and organized to form a starch granule. Three issues …

This article reviews current knowledge of starch metabolism in higher plants, and focuses on
the control and regulation of the biosynthetic and degradative pathways. The major …

Starch is one of the most important products synthesized by plants that is used in industrial
processes. If it were possible to increase production or modify starches in vivo, using …

Starch is globally important as a source of food and, in addition, has a wide range of
industrial applications. Much of this agriculturally produced starch is synthesized in …

Wheat starch is one of the most important components in wheat grain and is extensively
used as the main source in bread, noodles, and cookies. The wheat endosperm is …

Recent developments in studies on the characterization of properties and functions of
UDPglucose pyrophosphorylase (UGPase)[UTPglucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase] in …

This paper addresses the controversial idea that ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase may be
located in the cytosol in some non‐photosynthetic plant organs. The intracellular location of …

Crude extracts of starchy endosperm from barley (Hordeum vulgare cv Bomi) contained high
pyrophosphorolytic activity (up to 0.5 [mu] mol of glucose-1-P formed min-1 mg-1 of protein) …

The intracellular location of ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) in wheat during
endosperm development was investigated by analysis of the recovery of marker enzymes …
