^aFor each of the types of reactions, 400 mIU (1.0 mIU = 1.0 nmole of α-1,4 linkages synthesized/min) of Starch-Synthase was first allowed to go for 135 min or 1.2 CP, where 1.0 CP is the theoretical length of time necessary to convert 100% of the ADPGlc into an identical amount of amylose for each of the ten syntheses.
^bPresented in decreasing amounts of amylopectin and increasing amounts of amylose, respectively.
^cThe resulting amounts of amylopectin and amylose synthesized is dependent on the amount of Starch-Branching-Enzyme (1.0 to 0.01 mIU) and the length of time (130 sec to 15 sec) that it was allowed to react.
^d1.0 mIU = 1.0 nmole of α-1,6 branch-linkages synthesized per min.
