ABSTRACT: We determined the relationships among the structural properties, in

30

vitro digestibility and genetic factors in starches of 14 rice cultivars. Weight-based

31

chain-length distributions in amylopectin ranged from 18.07% to 24.71% (fa, DP

32

6-12), 45.01% to 55.67% (fb1, DP 13-24), 12.72% to 14.05% (fb2, DP 25-36) and

33

10.80 to 20.72% (fb3, DP > 36), respectively. The contents of rapidly digestible starch

34

(RDS), slowly digestible starch (SDS) and resistant starch (RS) ranged from 78.5% to

35

87.5%, 1.2% to 6.0% and 10.1% to 18.0%, respectively. AAC was negatively

36

correlated with RDS content, but positively correlated with RS content in rice starch.

37

The proportion of short chains in amylopectin was positively correlated with RDS.

38

Starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) gene controls the degree of crystallinity, the amount of fa

39

chains of amylopectin. SSIIIa gene controls the amount of fb1 chains. Wx gene

40

controls the amount of fraction I (FrI) and FrIIa fractionated by gel permeation

41

chromatography (GPC), RDS, and RS. Starch debranching enzyme isoamylase II

42

(ISA2) gene also controls the RDS, which may suggest that RDS was also affected by

43

amylopectin structure although no correlation between them was found. This study

44

indicated that genetics (i.e. starch biosynthesis related genes) controls structural

45

properties of starch, and both amylose content and amylopectin fine structure

46

determined functional properties of rice starch (i.e. the digestion), each in a different

47

way. Understanding the ‘genetics-structure-function’ relationships in rice starches will

48

assist plant breeders and food processors to develop new rice varieties and functional

49

foods.

INTRODUCTION

53

As a staple food crop for half of the global population, rice has been consumed

54

by humans for at least 5000 years. The digestive properties of starch have important

55

potential implications for human health considering that starch is a primary dietary

56

component. Starch can be categorized into rapidly digestible starch (RDS), slowly

57

digestible starch (SDS) and resistant starch (RS).1 RDS is associated with elevated

58

plasma glucose and insulin; consequently, it is linked with diabetes, coronary heart

59

disease and the ageing process.2 SDS results in a slow increase of postprandial blood

60

glucose levels and sustained blood glucose levels over time compared to RDS, which

61

is advantageous for physical and mental performance, satiety and diabetes

62

management.3 Therefore, SDS is the most desirable starch type from a nutritional

63

point of view.2 RS has beneficial physiological effects through the production of short

64

chain fatty acids during its fermentation in the large intestine.4 Possible relationships among starch structure and digestive properties have been

65

documented.5-8

When

67

high-performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC), RDS content was

68

negatively correlated with the amount of long and intermediate chains with DP >13,

69

but positively correlated with short chains (DP 37) was negatively correlated with

78

RDS content and positively correlated RS content,9 which was in agreement with the

79

results from the HPSEC.7 Furthermore, apparent amylose content (AAC) was

80

positively correlated with RS and SDS,5, 6 but negatively correlated with RDS. 5

81

Based on the above investigation, the digestive properties of starch were

82

influenced by both amylose content and amylopectin fine structure. However, the

83

concerted interplay or contributions of amylose and amylopectin fine structures are

84

not completely understood.

85

Genetic investigations into the mechanisms underlying the formation of SDS and

86

RS content in rice starches are scarce. Some starch mutants such as amylose extender,

87

in which the starch branching enzyme IIb (BEIIb) gene is defective, displayed high

88

RS.10 For a japonica high RS mutant “Jiangtangdao 1” with RS of 11.67%, BEIIb was

89

found to be the causal gene for the elevated RS content.11 For another high amylose

90

mutant in japonica background (Goami 2), BEIIb was not the causal gene,12 whereas

91

the genetic controls for some other high RS mutants in indica background are still

92

unknown.13 Low glycemic index (GI) food is able to assist in the management or

93

prevention of type II diabetes, a major chronic disease in developing countries where

94

rice is the staple food. In a study of 235 varieties, the Waxy gene was the major gene

95

associated with GI.14 However, genetic control of the naturally occurring variations in

96

SDS and RS contents in rice starch has not been reported.

97

To deepen understanding of the “genetics – structure – functionality”

98

relationships of rice starch, investigation of diverse rice starch samples with different

99

amylose content and similar amylopectin fine structure or similar amylose content

100

(for example, waxy rice) and different amylopectin fine structure combinations is

101

required. Previously, we examined fourteen rice cultivars varying in the combination

102

of AAC and gelatinization temperatures for their physicochemical and functional

103

properties.15 In this study, the same series of rice starch samples were analyzed for

104

starch structure and digestibility. The objectives were: i) to determine the contribution

105

of amylose content and amylopectin fine structure to the in vitro digestion properties

106

of the selected rice starches; ii) to delve into the genetic contribution of the starch

107

synthesis related genes (SSRGs) to the starch structure and functional properties.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

110

Materials. Fourteen rice cultivars were selected in current study and included three

111

waxy (Youzaonuo, Lishuinuo and Xiangnuo) and eleven normal (Zhefu504, Ce 482,

and LongB) types as described in a previous report (Table 1).15 Sample preparation

114

and starch isolation procedures were previously described.

115 116

In vitro starch digestibility. Samples of the starch fraction (550 mg, dry weight basis)

117

were weighed in a screw-capped tube and heated in 10 mL distilled water for 20 min

118

with frequent mixing. Following this, 15 glass beads (0.5 mm diameter), guar gum

119

(50 mg) and 10 mL of sodium acetate buffer (0.25 M, pH 5.2) were added to each

120

tube. The tubes were then incubated with pancreatic α-amylase (50 units) and

121

amyloglucosidase (35 units) at 37 °C in a shaking water bath. After 20 and 120 min of

122

incubation, the hydrolysates (0.5 mL) were transferred to 20 mL of 80% ethanol to

123

stop the reaction. The amount of released glucose was determined using a glucose

124

oxidase assay kit (Megazyme, Bray, Co. Wicklow, Ireland). The percentages of

125

glucose after 20 (SD20) and 120 (SD120) min incubations were calculated using a

126

glucose standard curve to determine the percent starch digested. The contents of

127

rapidly digestible starch (RDS), slowly digestible starch (SDS) and resistant starch

128

(RS) in rice starch samples were determined according to a previous report.1

129 130

2.3 Gel-permeation chromatography (GPC). Rice starch (~3.5 mg) was dissolved

131

in 100 µL of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) with constant stirring overnight. Hot MilliQ

132

water (800 µL) and 100 µL of 0.1 M NaAc buffer (pH 4.5) were added to the

133

starch-DMSO solution. Isoamylase (1 µL, from Pseudomonas sp., 1000 U/mL, EC

134

3.2.1.68, Megazyme, Bray, Co. Wicklow, Ireland) and 1 µL of pullulanase (from

135

Klebsiella planticola., 700 U/mL, EC 3.2.1.41, Megazyme, Bray, Co. Wicklow,

136

Ireland) were added to start the reaction, which was conducted overnight with slow

137

and constant stirring at room temperature. A NaOH solution (100 µL 5 M) was added

138

to the debranched starch sample, centrifuged, and then analysed by gel-permeation

139

chromatography (GPC) on a column (1 × 90 cm) of Sepharose CL 6B (Pharmacia,

141

was calibrated by using dextrans with known molecular weights. The carbohydrate

146

Amylopectin fractionation followed previous methods based on butanol-alcohol

147

precipitation.17,18 Purified amylopectin (9 mg) was dissolved in 450 µL 100% DMSO

148

with constant stirring overnight. The solution was then diluted with 2250 µL of MilliQ

149

water and 300 µL 0.1M sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.5), 1 µL of isoamylase (from

150

Pseudomonas sp., 1000 U/mL, EC 3.2.1.68, Megazyme, Bray, Co. Wicklow, Ireland)

151

and 1 µL of pullulanase (from Klebsiella planticola, 700 U/mL, EC 3.2.1.41,

152

Megazyme, Bray, Co. Wicklow, Ireland) were added. The debranching reaction was

153

conducted at room temperature with constant stirring overnight and was terminated by

154

heating. The sample was centrifuged and filtered (pore size 0.45 µm) before injection

155

into the HPLC system.

156

The chain length distributions of debranched samples were analysed with a method

157

modified from a previous report using a high-performance anion-exchange

158

chromatography (HPAEC) system (Dionex ICS-5000+, Sunnyvale, CA) coupled with

159

a BioLC gradient pump and a pulsed amperometric detector (PAD).18 The PAD signal

160

was recorded by Chromeleon software (Version 6.8) and corrected to carbohydrate

161

content.19 Prior to loading the sample, the column (250 mm × 4 mm, Carbo-Pac

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

162

PA-100 with a guard column) was eluted at a rate of 1 mL/min with 150 mM NaOH

163

for 20 min, then with a mixture of 150 mM NaOH (eluent A, 93%) and 150 mM

164

NaOH containing 1 M NaOAc (eluent B, 7%) for 20 min. The elution gradient with a

165

rate of 1 mL/min, was as follows: from 0 to 1.3 min, 93% eluent A; from 1.3 to 10

166

min, eluent A changed from 93 to 82% linearly; from 10 to 19 min, from 82 to 78%;

167

from 19 to 111 min, from 78 to 50%; from 111 to 113 min, from 50 to 93% (after

168

which it returned to the starting mixture). The sample was injected during the initial

169

1.2–1.3 min.

170 171

Physicochemical properties. Parameters of the physicochemical properties used in

172

the current study were described in our previous report.15

173 174

Association test. Since all the 14 accessions were selected from our association

175

panel,20-22 the genotypes of all the SSRGs (Supplementary Table 1) as well as other

176

markers (i.e. microsatellites) were used in this study, to test the association among

177

SSRGs, starch structure and functionality (digestive properties). Due to small amount

178

of samples, the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the kinship coefficients (K)

179

models were performed with TASSEL Version 2.1 software. The P-value determining

180

whether a marker is associated with a trait was set at P < 0.05.

181 182

Statistical analysis. All analyses were determined in triplicate. Statistical analysis

183

was conducted using SigmaPlot 9.01 integrated with SigmaStat 3.11 (Systat Software,

CA). The results were subjected to one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and

185

Tukey's test to determine significant differences.

186 187

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

188

Molecular structure characterization of rice starch. The debranched total starch

189

samples were analyzed by gel-permeation chromatography (GPC) with Sepharose CL

190

6B to determine the molecular size distribution profiles. The typical profiles from

191

selected starch samples are shown in Fig. 1.Three major peaks were identified: the

192

fraction from the first peak area (FrI) is amylose, while the fractions of the second and

193

third peak areas (FrIIb and FrIIa) are long and short unit chains of amylopectin,

194

respectively (Fig. 1). As expected, percentage of FrI from waxy rice starch was low

195

(0.2-1.5%), while non-waxy rice starch had 16.7-25.6%. The content of FrI followed

196

the general trend of AAC as determined by the iodine reagent method (Table 1). Since

197

the amylose content obtained from Sepharose CL 2B (before debranching) and 6B

198

(debranched) differ,23 caution should be taken when comparing the AAC obtained

199

from the different methods.

200

Purified amylopectin debranched by enzymes was employed to determine the

201

chain-length profile. The parameters of chain-length distribution and average

202

chain-length of amylopectin are summarized in Table 2, and a comparison of

203

amylopectin chain-length distribution profiles from selected rice starch samples is

204

presented in Fig. 2. The weight-based chain-length distribution of debranched

205

amylopectin was grouped into four fractions: fa (DP 6-12), fb1 (DP 13-24), fb2 (DP

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

206

25-36) and fb3 (DP > 36), according to the division suggested by a previous report.24

207

The percentages of fa, fb1, fb2 and fb3 were 18.07%-24.71%, 45.01%-55.67%,

208

12.72%-14.05% and 10.80%-20.72%, respectively. The average chain-length in rice

209

amylopectin was DP 16.34-17.76, which was in agreement with a previous report on

210

waxy rice;25 however, these values were lower than a recent report describing the

211

average chain-length of six waxy rice starches, which ranged from DP 21.9 to 24.3.9

212

In another study, the average chain-length of four waxy rice starches was from DP

213

20.0 to 20.7.26 The results showed that amylopectin chain-length profiles from three

214

waxy and 11 normal types was similar, which indicated that the amylopectin fine

215

structure was independent of the amylose content. This result challenged a conclusion

216

made by a previous report that amylose content was significantly correlated with

217

amylopectin average chain-length and the ratio of long chains to short chains.27

218

Amylopectin chains in high-amylose and intermediate-amylose rice were shown

219

to be longer than in waxy and low-amylose rice when four rice cultivars were

220

compared;7 however, when more cultivars were included as in this study, the trend

221

was not clear (Table 2). Generally, waxy and low-amylose (BP005) rice starches had

222

a higher degree of crystallinity than normal types. However, waxy type BP597 had a

223

much lower degree of crystallinity. Notably, fb1 (DP 13-24) chains in BP597 were

224

lower and fb3 (DP >36) were higher than the other two waxy types (Table 2),

225

indicating that fb1 chains contributed to the formation of crystallinity while fb3

226

hindered this formation. Normal type BP003 had a higher degree of crystallinity than

227

other normal types, and the highest proportion of fb1 chains and lowest proportion of

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 11 of 34

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

228

fb3 chains was observed in BP003 (Table 2), which further supported the roles of fb1

229

and fb3 chains in starch crystallinity. It has also been suggested that fb1 chains form

230

double helices that span the entire length of crystalline regions.28

231 232

In vitro digestibility of rice starch. The in vitro methodology for determining

233

nutritional starch fractions was developed by Englyst and coworkers1 and describes

234

the likely rate and extent of glucose release from foods in the small intestine; it has

235

been verified to match the mean proportion of starch recovered in ileostomy studies.29,

236

30

237

fate of the carbohydrate when it is consumed.31

These nutritional fractions determine the bioavailability and likely physiological

238

The nutritional fractions of rice starch, including rapidly digestible starch (RDS),

239

slowly digestible starch (SDS) and resistant starch (RS), are presented in Table 3. The

240

RDS content of rice starch ranged from 78.5 to 87.5%. The lowest and highest RDS

241

contents were observed in BP028 and BP011, respectively. Waxy rice starch types had

242

relatively higher RDS content than normal types. SDS content from rice starch

243

samples ranged from 1.2 to 6.0%, with the lowest content observed in BP011 and the

244

highest in BP005. RS content varied from 10.1% (BP005) to 18.0% (BP578) (Table

245

3). It has been proposed that combining the fractions of SDS and RS was useful for

246

comparison of starch types,32 and normal rice starch showed relatively higher

247

fractions of SDS and RS than waxy types, this phenomenon was also observed in

248

current study. Rice starch digestion properties were previously shown to be affected

249

by amylopectin fine structure,5 starch fine molecular structure and crystalline

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

250

structure.9 RS has been correlated positively with amylose content in rice starch, while

251

SDS decreased as amylose content increased.7 RDS content of rice starches decreased

252

with increasing amylose content,6 and waxy starches showed greater enzyme digestion

253

than normal types.33 Higher RDS content in waxy rice starch was attributed to the

254

lower proportion of long chains in amylopectin (DP ≥ 37), the molecular weight in

255

molecular structure, the onset temperature of gelatinization and crystallinity, and the

256

higher proportion of short A (DP 6-12) chains.9

257 258

Relating starch structure to functional and digestion properties. Starch

259

physicochemical and functional parameters including AAC, starch crystallinity,

260

pasting and thermal properties were adapted from our previous report.15 The fraction

261

of short chains (DP 6-12), fa, was negatively correlated with the degree of

262

crystallinity (r = −0.67, p < 0.01) (Table 4). AAC was previously shown to be

263

negatively correlated with the degree of crystallinity (r = −0.62, p < 0.001).15 However,

264

a higher proportion of short chains (DP10-13) resulted in a higher degree of

265

crystallinity and the degree of starch crystallinity decreased with increasing amylose

266

content in a previous report.34 Waxy types BP011 and BP601, and normal types

267

BP028 and BP578 exhibited similar amylopectin chain-length profiles regardless of

268

amylose content (Table 2). The waxy types had a higher degree of crystallinity than

269

the normal. Waxy type BP597 had lower proportion of fb1 chains and a relatively

270

higher proportion of fb3 chains than the other two waxy types, these differences in

271

amylopectin structure contributed to a lower degree of crystallinity in BP597. Based

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 13 of 34

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

272

on the above, the starch crystallinity was not affected by amylose content or

273

amylopectin fine structure alone, but by the interplay of amylose and amylopectin fine

274

structure.

275

FrI consisted of debranched amylose and represented the amylose content, so it

276

is not surprising that AAC showed a significant positive correlation with FrI (r = 0.97,

277

p < 0.001) (Table 4). Breakdown viscosity (BD) was positively correlated with the

278

amout of short chains (fa), but negatively correlated with the amount of fb1 chains.

279

Previous study also indicated that rice starches with higher proportions of fb1 chains

280

seemingly had lower BD, whereas with higher proportions of fa chains had larger

281

BD.35 These observations were generally consistent with our current results. No

282

significant correlation between BD and FrI was observed, however, FrI was positively

283

correlated with CPV (r = 0.78, p < 0.001) and SB (r = 0.82, p < 0.001) (Table 4).

284

When the starch paste was cooled, aggregation of leached amylose resulted in a strong

285

gel due to the formation of hydrogen bonds from free amylose, which explained the

286

current observed results, and similar observations were reported previously in rice

287

starches with different amylose contents.6 Gelatinization parameters, including To, Tp

288

and ∆H, had negative correlations with the proportion of short fa (DP 6-12) chains, fa

289

chains were also negatively correlated with RVA pasting temperature (r = −0.84, p
