Abstract excerpt
The unit chains of amylopectin are organized into clusters. In this study, the cluster structure was analysed in detail in four different genotypes of barley, of which two possessed the amo1 genetic background. Amylose content of the barley starches differed from 0 to 32.6%. Isolated amylopectin was hydrolysed with α-amylase from Bacillus subtilis into domains, defined as groups of clusters, which were...
