“…2.4.1.25. glucosyl hydrolase family 13 and 70, GH13 and GH70, www.CaZy.org) transfers α-1,4 glucosidic linkages mainly within amylopectin and amylose, amylopectin cluster, or from amylose to amylopectin (Hansen, Blennow, Pedersen, Nørgaard and Engelsen, 2008). AM has been proven to add value to starch including its modification to impose gelatin-like functionality (Hansen et al, 2008) and increased degradative resistance (Jiang, Miao, Ye, Jiang and Zhang, 2014). Branching enzyme (BE, 1,4-α-D-α-glucan:1,4-α-D-α-glucan 6-α-D-(1,4-α-D-α-glucano)-transferase, EC 2.4.1.18, glucosyl hydrolase family 13, GH13, www.CaZy.org) catalyses the formation of branch points in starch and glycogen biosynthesis by the cleavage of existing α-1,4 glucosidic linkages followed by transfer to 1,6 hydroxyl groups to form the tree-like amylopectin and glycogen structures (Roussel et al, 2013;Shinohara et al, 2001).…”
