Non-starch polysaccharides in beer and brewing: A review of their occurrence and significance (2022)
Journal Article
Reid, J. E. S. J., Yakubov, G. E., & Lawrence, S. J. (2024). Non-starch polysaccharides in beer and brewing: A review of their occurrence and significance. Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 64, 837-851. https://doi.org/10.1080/10408398.2022.2109585

It has become apparent that beer (both alcoholic and nonalcoholic) contains appreciable amounts of non-starch polysaccharides, a broad subgroup of dietary fiber. It is worth noting that the occurrence of non-starch polysaccharides in alcoholic beer d...

Protein-induced delubrication: How plant-based and dairy proteins affect mouthfeel (2022)
Journal Article
Vlădescu, S., Agurto, M. G., Myant, C., Boehm, M. W., Baier, S. K., Yakubov, G. E., …Reddyhoff, T. (2023). Protein-induced delubrication: How plant-based and dairy proteins affect mouthfeel. Food Hydrocolloids, 134, Article 107975. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodhyd.2022.107975

Understanding how certain proteins cause astringency is necessary in order to improve the mouthfeel and popularity of plant-based foods. To this end, we studied protein interactions during oral processes using a PDMS-PDMS interface lubricated by ex-v...

Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism (2022)
Journal Article
Fusi, R., Rosignoli, S., Lou, H., Sangiorgi, G., Bovina, R., Pattem, J. K., …Salvi, S. (2022). Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,

Root angle in crops represents a key trait for efficient capture of soil resources. Root angle is determined by competing gravitropic versus anti-gravitropic offset (AGO) mechanisms. Here we report a new root angle regulatory gene termed ENHANCED GRA... Read More about Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism.

Flavour compounds affect protein structure: The effect of methyl anthranilate on bovine serum albumin conformation (2022)
Journal Article
Dinu, V., Borah, P. K., Muleya, M., Scott, D. J., Lithgo, R., Pattem, J., …Fisk, I. D. (2022). Flavour compounds affect protein structure: The effect of methyl anthranilate on bovine serum albumin conformation. Food Chemistry, 388, Article 133013. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.133013

This study aims to understand possible effects of flavour compounds on the structure and conformation of endogenous proteins. Using methyl anthranilate (a grape flavour compound added to drinks, confectionery, and vape-liquids) and bovine serum album...

How hydrocolloids can control the viscoelastic properties of acid-swollen collagen pastes (2022)
Journal Article
Sobanwa, M., Foster, T. J., Yakubov, G., & Watson, N. J. (2022). How hydrocolloids can control the viscoelastic properties of acid-swollen collagen pastes. Food Hydrocolloids, 126, Article 107486. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodhyd.2022.107486

The interactions between proteins and polysaccharides are of considerable importance in the food industry. In this study, the effect of adding non-charged methylcellulose (MC), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), medium (GM) and high (GH) molecular...
