Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect BCAAs, GLS and their precursors were temporarily upregulated during daikon dehydration.
- Intervention effect BCAT4, MAM3 and IPMDH1 were upregulated during daikon dehydration.
- Intervention effect RMB1, RMB2 and GRS1 were upregulated during daikon dehydration.
- Mechanism Stress-induced synthase gene upregulation was asserted to cause BCAA and GLS accumulation in dehydrating daikon.
- Mechanism The authors infer that daikon's biological response contributes characteristic flavor and health functionality to takuan-zuke.
