In the step, the reaction time is optimized, and the specific implementation mode is the same as the step (1), and the reaction time is only adjusted to be 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h and 12h, so that the result shows that the modification time effect of 10h is relatively better.
(4) Optimization of corn starch milk concentration
In the step, the corn starch milk concentration is optimized, and the specific implementation mode is the same as the step (1), and only the corn starch milk concentration is adjusted to 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%, so that the result shows that the modification effect is relatively good at the corn starch milk concentration of 20%.
Example 4: determination of branched starch
The modified starch prepared in step (1) of example 3 was weighed and amylose content, branched chain distribution, in vitro digestibility and retrogradation properties were measured respectively using unmodified native starch as a control.
(1) Amylose content
In the determination of the amylose content, the results show (FIG. 1) that the amylose content in the modified starch prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis of mutant H415W is reduced by about 8.27% at 70℃compared with the native starch; the amylose content was reduced by about 4.42% compared to the wild type; the amylose content was reduced by about 3.89% compared to mutant V140I.
(2) Distribution of branch length
In the branched chain distribution, the results showed (shown in table 1) that the branched chain length distribution of mutant H415W modified starch was superior to that of wild type and V140I modified starches. The DP value of the mutant was significantly reduced at 13-24 compared to wild-type enzyme and mutant V140I, the chain length of DP >36 was also significantly reduced and the chain length of DP <13 was significantly increased. The chain transfer pattern of the mutant was similar to that of the wild-type enzyme studied previously, but the effect was more pronounced.
TABLE 1 branching Length distribution
(3) In vitro simulated digestion assay
In vitro simulated digestion assay, the results show (as shown in table 2) that the fast-digestion starch content ratio of the branched starch obtained by modifying mutant H415W is reduced to below 80%. Compared with the mutant V140I, the method has the advantages that the ratio is reduced by 10.42 percent, and compared with the wild type, the highest ratio is reduced by 11.71 percent; the highest reduction was 20.35% compared to the control group. The mutant H415W has remarkable promotion effect on slow digestion and digestion resistant starch.
TABLE 2 in vitro digestibility
(4) Retrogradation assay
In the retrogradation assay, the results show (as shown in Table 3) that the initial gelatinization temperature (T o ) And the retrogradation enthalpy value (delta H) is reduced, and the delta H is obviously reduced. And compared with the wild type and mutant V140I, the mutant H415W has significantly reduced delta H, which indicates that the mutant modified corn starch with the optimal reaction temperature of 70 ℃ has stronger regeneration inhibition capability. This result is associated with a reduced amylose content of the modified starch.
TABLE 3 retrogradation Properties
The optimal reaction temperature for mutant H415W was increased to 70℃whereas the wild-type and V140I mutants were 60 ℃. Starch swells to a greater extent at 70℃facilitating the entry of enzymes and more facilitating the action of mutant H415W on amylose or long-chain amylopectin of starch. Therefore, the mutant with the optimal reaction temperature of 70 ℃ improves the industrial production strength, reduces the energy consumption required by production, and simultaneously further and obviously improves the branching degree of the product, thereby having obvious advantages in the industrial enzymatic preparation of branched starch.
The starch which is not pre-gelatinized is directly modified by a high-temperature enzyme method, so that the enzyme method effect and the gelatinization of the starch are synchronously carried out, industrial resources are saved, the modification step is simplified, and the method has great value in industrial production of branched starch.
The glycogen branching enzyme mutant has improved heat stability, the optimal reaction temperature reaches 70 ℃, the direct high-temperature (70 ℃) enzymatic modification of starch which is not subjected to gelatinization pretreatment is realized, the branching reaction and the starch swelling are synchronously carried out, and the method has the application prospect of saving industrial resources and simplifying modification steps. Compared with the original starch, the branching degree of the starch is obviously increased, the amylose content of the original starch is reduced, the digestion and retrogradation characteristics are improved, and the starch can be well applied to low GI, dietary fiber and functional beverage and food, and can also be added into bread to delay aging. Has great application value for improving obesity, cardiovascular diseases, chronic diseases such as type II diabetes and the like and bread aging.
While the invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, it is not limited thereto, and various changes and modifications can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
