Mutant Branching Enzyme Improves Pea Starch Function
2026-08-27
A 2026 study engineered a Bifidobacterium longum 1,4-α-glucan branching enzyme to reshape pea starch structure and reduce retrogradation and in vitro digestibility. The S321D mutant produced more short branches, increased the slowly digestible fraction, and improved the texture of pea cake after storage, although translation to human glycemic responses remains untested.
