Progress in Structures,Functions and Interactions of Starch Synthesis Related Enzymes in Rice Endosperm
Starch is the predominant rice seed reserves.Rice yield and eating quality are influenced by the process of starch biosynthesis.In endosperm amyloplast,starch biosynthesis is a result of complex network of many enzymes. This report summarized the structures,functions and interactions of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), starch synthases (SSs),starch branching enzymes (BEs)and starch debranching enzymes (DBEs).It will provide helpful information to breed high yield and good quality rice.
