Rhamnogalacturonan I (RG-I) pectin is composed of backbone of repeating disaccharide units →2)-α-L-Rhap-(1→4)-α-D-GalpA-(1→ and neutral sugar side-chains mainly consisting of arabinose and galactose having variable types of linkages. However, since traditional pectin extraction methods damages the RG-I structure, the characteristics and health effects of RG-I remains unclear. Recently, many studies have focused on RG-I, which is often more active than the homogalacturonan (HG) portion of pectic polysaccharides. In food products, RG-I is common to fruits and vegetables and possesses many health benefits. This timely and comprehensive review describes the many different facets of RG-I, including its dietary sources, history, metabolism and potential functionalities, all of which have been compiled to establish a platform for taking full advantage of the functional value of RG-I pectin.
鼠李半乳糖醛酸聚糖 I(RG-I)果胶由重复二糖单元的主链组成→2))-α-L-鼠李糖-(1→4)-α-D-半乳糖醛酸-(1→和中性糖侧链组成,主要由阿拉伯糖和半乳糖组成,具有不同类型的键合方式。然而,由于传统的果胶提取方法会破坏 RG-I 结构,因此 RG-I 的特性和健康影响仍不清楚。最近,许多研究都集中在 RG-I 上,它通常比果胶多糖的半乳糖醛酸(HG)部分更具活性。在食品中,RG-I 在水果和蔬菜中很常见,具有许多健康益处。本综述及时而全面地描述了 RG-I 的许多不同方面,包括其饮食来源、历史、代谢和潜在功能,所有这些都被汇编在一起,为充分利用 RG-I 果胶的功能价值建立了一个平台。
