Structural characteristics of arabinoxylans from barley, malt and wort = Structuurkenmerken van arabinoxylanen uit gerst, mout en wort

Popis: Flours from dehusked barley and malt were fractionated to obtain water-insoluble cell wall material (WIS). A mass balance of these fractionations was determined. Arabinoxylans were extracted from this WIS in high purity and yield with Ba(OH) 2 , and subfractionated with graded ethanol precipitation.The structural elements present in these arabinoxylans and in arabinoxylans isolated from wort were determined. These arabinoxylans all consisted of a backbone of (1-->4)-linkedβ-D-xylopyranose units (Xyl p ), a proportion of which were substituted with alfa-L- arabinofuranose (Ara f ) at O-2 and/or O-3 of the Xyl p units. A new feature was the presence in barley and malt arabinoxylans of a large amount of Xyl p units carrying a single Ara f substituent at O-2. The amounts of Xyl p substituted at O-2 or at both O-2 and O-3 increased with increasing substitution of the xylan backbone. The wort arabinoxylans were found to be exceptionally rich in O-2,3-disubstituted Xyl p .A number of fragments could be isolated after degradation of barley and malt arabinoxylans with endoxylanase 1 from Aspergillus awamori . The structures of the isolated fragments were determined. From the structures found, it could be shown that the position of Ara f substituents on the xylose residues of the arabinoxylan influenced the extent of enzymic degradation of the xylan backbone, substituents at O-2 being more efficient than substituents at O-3 with the enzyme used. From these data and the linkage composition of undegradable arabinoxylan fractions, it was concluded that the distribution of Ara f substituents over the xylan chain was not random, but fairly regular.The arabinoxylans extracted from barley and malt cell wall material appeared to be very similar in composition and structural features.
