Introduction
Amylose can interact strongly with a number of polar
and non-polar compounds, including lipids and emulsitiers ~-3. These complexes, when characterized by X-ray
diffraction, yield specific V-type diagrams. V amylose is
a generic name for crystalline amyloses obtained as
collapsed single helices co-crystallized with compounds
such as iodine, DMSO, alcohols and fatty acids.
Although complexing molecules are required for the
formation of the V-type single helical structure, they may
be present or not in the precipitated complexes. Some of
these structures (V A, VH, VDMSO, V~OD~NE) have been
determined by X-ray analysis on crystalline fibres 4-8 or
electron crystallography9. The chain conformation
consists in a left-handed, six residues 65 helix with a rise
per monomer between 0.132 and 0.136 nm. In some VA
and VH structures obtained by precipitation with
alcohols, only water molecules are present inside the
central cavity. The central cavity of the VDMsocomplexes v
is occupied by two DMSO molecules and approximately
three iodine molecules per turn are in the V~OOINE
complex 8.
Other studies using X-ray diffraction1, n.m.r, and
optical techniques 1~ and Raman spectroscopy 12 show
that similar inclusion complexes can also be formed with
fatty acids and monoglycerides. These complexes usually
yield a VHtype diffraction diagram 13, and several models
have been proposed for the inclusion of fatty acid in a
VH type amylose helix a2-~4. Nevertheless, no precise

crystalline structure is available for a fatty acidamylose complex since it has not been possible up to
now to prepare crystalline fibres or single crystals suitable
for good X-ray or electron analysis.
Molecular modelling has appeared to be useful to
predict the structural features of macromolecular
carbohydrates. In recent works, some models of
amylopectin 15'16 derived from the double helical
structure of A- and B-amylose polymorphs t7'~8 have
been proposed. Molecular modelling has also been shown
to be an efficient tool to predict the interactions between
cyclodextrins and guest molecules a9-22. This paper
describes a systematic study of the positioning of a
patmitic acid molecule into an amylose single helix similar
to that constituting the VH structure proposed by
Rappenecker and Zugenmaier6.
Experimental
The coordinates of the Vn structure proposed by
Rapenecker and Zugenmaier6 were used for the
glucopyranose residue. The 65 VH amylose helix was then
propagated using the following values for the ~(1-4)
glycosidic linkage:
Oo5(O5-C1-O4-C4) = - 134.4
qJc5(C1-O4-C4-C5) = - 127.5
0(C1-O4 C 4 ) = 118.6

Figure 6 Schematic representation of the location of the
aliphatic chain on the helical pattern of the H5 atoms for
glucopyranose residues. The oblique lines represent the
V-amylose helix. The broken zig-zag line represents the
aliphatic chain. The different short contact pairs are shown by
geometric figures
There are three types of short contacts.
(I) (E ... 21); (E ... 22)
(II) (F ... Zl); (F ... 41)
(III) (G ... 32); (G ... 52)
The previous expressions can be generalized to all
interactions between the amylose helix and the total fatty
acid as following:
(I) (x ... y l ) ; (x ... y2)
with(x,y) = (E,2),
(H,5), (K,8) and
(N,11),
(II) ( x . . . y l ) ; ( x . . . ( y + 2 ) l )
with(x,y)=(F,2),
(1,5) and (L,8),
(III) (x ... yZ); (x ... (y + 2)2) with (x,y) = (G,3),
(J,6) and (M,9)
The mean values for these three types of distances are
respectively 0.236, 0.238 and 0.233nm which are
compatible with the shortest hydrogen-hydrogen
distance without steric conflict. This close packing
typically shows the complementarity of the two
conformation symmetries. Each calculated structure is
isolated since any movement of the aliphatic chain
relative to the helix provokes steric conflicts as shown in
Figure 5. For instance, the first type of close contacts
(I) prevents any rotation while the types (II) and (III)
freeze any movement in translation as well as in screwing.

Conclusions
26
This study shows that the inclusion model for the fatty
acid amylose complexes is acceptable in terms of both
steric hindrance and interaction energy. The geometries
of the 65 amylose helix and the fatty acid carbon chain
are so complementary that very little movement is
