Solving the problem of glycosidase inhibitors in
food processing
The project aimed to understand the mechanism of action of multifunctional proteinaceous inhibitors of glycosidases and to determine their biodiversity and physiological role in the plant. This information is essential to optimise industrial processes by using modified enzymes, careful selection of raw material, choice of reaction conditions and with the option of developing modified crops in the future.
 
This project has been carried out with the financial support from the Commission of the European Communities, under the specific programme for RTD and Demonstration on “Quality of Life and management of living resources”, Key Action 1-Food, Nutrition and Health, Contract: QLK1-CT2000--N°00811, “Solving the problem of glycosidase inhibitors in
food processing”.
