Abstract

Rice seeds of 4 cultivars including Whachung-giant embryonic rice and Nampung-giant embryonic rice, as a group of the non-waxy rice cultivars, and Shinsunchal-giant embryonic rice and Whachungchal-giant embryonic rice, as that of the waxy rice cultivars, were germinated at $27^{\circ}C$ for 3 days to compare the changes in some physicochemical properties of the starch granules and the starch-hydrolysing enzyme activities during germination, respectively. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ activity of rices germinated for 3 days found to be higher than that of malt. Especially, Whachung-giant embryonic rice and Shinsunchal-giant embryonic rice were greater in activity than other rice cultivars and possessed the activities double that of malt. In contrast, ${\beta}-amylase$ of germinated rice found to be considerably less active than malt, although the giant embryonic rice group showed prevalent activity as compared o the normal rice group. With the starch granules, the amount of long glucose chains from amylose molecules were reduced in the non-waxy type giant embryonic rices, while the chain length increase was found in the waxy type giant embryonic rices. For the distribution profile of the glucose chain length from amylopectin molecules, we could observed that the chain length with DP (degree of polymerization) ranged 33 to 66 and 14 to 32 increased with the decreasing rate of that above 67 and below 13 regardless of starch waxiness. With non-waxy type of giant embryonic rices, susceptibility for glucoamylase were found to reduce along with germination, however, increase in susceptibility was observed with waxy rice types. In addition, we found the reduction in both initiation and termination temperature, and enthalpy for gelatinization.

메품종의 거대배아미인 화청거대배아미, 남풍거대배아미, 그리고 찰품종인 화청찰거대배아미, 신선찰거대배아미 등 4품종의 거대배아미 품종의 볍씨를 각각 $27^{\circ}C$에서 3일간 발아시켜, 발아에 따른 전분 가수분해 효소의 활성 및 전분입자의 이화학적 특성을 각각 비교하였다. 3일간 발아시킨 벼의 ${\alpha}-amylase$의 활성은 맥아에 비해서 활성이 높게 나타났으며, 특히 화청거대배아미 및 신선찰거대배아미는 맥아보다 약 2배 정도의 활성을 나타내고 있었다. 이에 비해서 ${\beta}-amylase$의 경우는 일반품종보다는 거대배아미품종의 활성이 높기는 하지만 비교군인 맥아에 비해서 상당히 낮은 활성을 나타내고 있었다. 전분분자 중 아밀로오스 분자 유래의 긴 포도당 사슬의 양은 발아와 더불어 메품종 거대배아미에서는 줄어들고 있었으며, 찰품종에서는 증가하고 있었다. 아밀로펙틴 분자 유래의 포도당 사슬길이 분포는 찰벼와 메벼 품종에 관계없이 발아와 더불어 중합도가 14부터 60가지 비율은 증가하고 있었으며, 중합도 130이상 또는 13이하의 비율은 감소하고 있었다. Glucoamylase에 의한 가수분해도는 거대배아미메품종의 경우에는 발아와 더불어 현저히 낮아지고 있었고, 찰품종의 경우에는 오히려 증가하고 있었다. 그리고 호화개시온도, 호화종료 및 호화엔탈피는 감소하고 있었다.
