nutrition | cooking and textural characteristics of rice depend not only on the ratio of amylose, but also on the degree of amylopectin branching. Short chains of glucose with a degree of polymerization (DP)of 69 inhibit retrogradation. In vivo modification of starches using genetic engineering holds potential for both enhancing nutritional qualities and for obviating post-harvest modifications often necessary for utilization of this complex carbohydrate | Escherichia coli |

expression of Escherichia coli branching enzyme in caryopses of transgenic Oryza satica results in amylopectin with an increased degree of branching. Expression of Escgerichia coli glgB in rice results in an increase in the short-chain fractions with DP between 6 and 10, which should have a significant effect on retrogradation | Escherichia coli |
