Amylose synthesis allows to the plant having some provisions, for a future seed or for some organ for passing bad seasons. In the rice, it is for a future seed, which is the rice itself. In this forme, amylose is chemically stable. This means that it can’t react except by depolymerisation or polymerisation, but not for producing bioenergy, like ATP or any others. Another property of this form of glucose, is that it doesn’t modify the chemical potential of the cell, which is very good and doesn’t unsettle the equilibrium of the cell. | |||
