The contribution of adenosine 5'-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase to the control of starch synthesis in potato tubers
The aim of this work was to investigate the extent to which starch synthesis in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers is controlled by the activity of ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase (EC 2.7.7.27; AGPase). In order to do this, fluxes of carbohydrate metabolism were measured in tubers that had reduced AG...
