Differentiation of Croatian Barley Varieties by Gradient Gel Sds-page and Isoelectric Focusing of Dry Grains and Green Malt Hordeins

چکیده
Barley malting and brewing processing properties, as well as potential grain yield, morphology, physiological traits, and resistance to certain fungi and viral diseases are cultivar dependent. Therefore, reliable and simple method for variety recognition is of a great importance for the malting and brewing industries, as well as for barley breeders, growers and traders. Among various approaches, analysis of barley grain storage proteins, hordeins, by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at acidic pH or by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was recommended in year 1988 as the official method for barley variety discrimination (Cooke, 1995; Wrigley, 1995). However, according to the reports in the literature, hordein patterns obtained by the recommended methods, allow only varieties grouping and not their full differentiation (Cooke, 1995; Wrigley, 1995; White and Cooke, 1992). The main obstacle for discrimination of barley variety hordeins is their similarity, developed for two reasons: (i) the majority of modern barley varieties could be traced back to just a few ancestors making them closely related, and (ii) genes coding for the B and C hordeins are located on the same arm of chromosome 5, thus limiting the possibilities of recombination, and subsequent hordein polymorphism (Weiss et al., 1991). Additionally, the recommended method with applied separation conditions does not have high resolution power.

Comparative Electrophoretic Patterns of Albumins/ Globulins Extracted from Dry Grains and Green Malts of Barley Varieties
Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) at acidic pH and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of barley seed storage proteins, hordeins, have been widely applied for barley variety discrimination (Cooke, 1995; Wrigley, 1995; White and Cooke, 1992). However, their use is limited to variety grouping, while full differentiation could not be achieved (Lamelland and...
متن کاملA Simpler and Faster Version of Two-Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis Using Vertical, Mini SDS-PAGE Apparatus
We have modified one of the most useful methods of protein separation; namely, two dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). This modified version of 2-DE is not only simpler and easier but also faster than all the currently available methods. In this method, isoelectric focusing is carried out in the first dimension using a vertical sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrop...
متن کاملStudy on Barley and Malt Polyphenoloxidase. I. Chromatography of Barley, Steeped Barley, and Malt Polyphenoloxidase
A comparative chromatography of polyphenoloxidase isolated from barley, steeped barley, and green malt was made. It consisted ofextraction, precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration, and electrofocusing. Polyphenoloxidase was resolved into a high-molecularweight enzyme and a low-molecular-weight one. The proportion of the two enzymes underwent variations during malting. An incr...
متن کاملEnrichment and Identification of the Most Abundant Zinc Binding Proteins in Developing Barley Grains by Zinc-IMAC Capture and Nano LC-MS/MS
Background: Zinc accumulates in the embryo, aleurone, and subaleurone layers at different amounts in cereal grains. Our hypothesis is that zinc could be stored bound, not only to low MW metabolites/proteins, but also to high MW proteins as well. Methods: In order to identify the most abundant zinc binding proteins in different grain tissues, we microdissected barley grains into (1) seed coats; ...

Proteolytic degradation of barley proteins is examined in green (unkilned) malt and germinating seeds from Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Harrington. Zymographic analysis of the Harrington green malt extracts using commercial preparations of barley beta-amylase incorporated as a proteolytic substrate in 2-D SDS gels shows multiple proteolytic activities. A developmental study shows that the several gre...
