Studies on potato tuber phosphorylase catalyzed reaction in the absence of an exogenous acceptor. II. Characterization of the reaction product
Incubation of potato tuber phophorylase II with [14C]glucose 1-phosphate in the absence of an exogenous acceptor results in the synthesis of a radioactive product, presumably a protein-bound glucan. The carbohydrate moiety of this product was shown to consist of long α-1,4-glucosidic chains. The enz...
