Analysis of Portuguese wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) landrace 'Barbela' revealed the existence of a new x-type high molecular weight-glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) encoded at the Glu-A1 locus, which we named 1Ax1.1. Using one-dimensional and two-dimensional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, we compared subunit 1Ax1.1 with other subunits encoded at the Glu-A1 locus. Subunit 1Ax1.1 has a theoretic...

A collection of 35 accessions of the tetraploid wild wheat Aegilops geniculata Roth (MM, UU) sampled in northern Algeria was evaluated for morphological and biochemical variability. Morphological and ecological analyses based on morphological traits and bioclimatic parameters, respectively, were assessed using principal component analysis (PCA). Accessions were differentiated by width character...

As an important relative of wheat (Triticum aestivum L), Dasypyrum breviaristatum contains novel high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) encoded by Glu-1Vb genes. We identified new wheat-D. breviaristatum chromosome introgression lines including chromosomes 1Vb and 1VbL.5VbL by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) combined with molecular markers. We found that chromosome changes ...

high molecular weight (hmw) glutenin sub-units and baking quality related traits were studied in 49 iranian wheat landraces. the protein content ranged from 11.2% to 13.55%, and sds sedimentation volume varied between 40 and 60 milliliters. high molecular weight glutenin electrophoresis profiles revealed that at the glu-a1 locus, the frequency of null allele was higher than sub-units 1 and 2*. ...

High molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) play a major role in determining the dough quality of wheat. As D genome donor hexaploid wheat, Aegilops tauschii is an important genetic resource for wheat breeding. In present study, novel HMW-GSs from Ae. was identified and designated as Glu-Dt1. Multiple sequence alignment indicated that one cysteine mutated into arginine y-type subunit. Sit...

Abstract Background Wheat flour maturation affects the aggregation and structural stability of proteins. The number high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) differs in various wheat varieties. effects Dx2 absence on protein characteristics thermal were investigated during 120 days using near-isogenic lines (NILs). Results delayed decreased flours maturation, i.e., maturation-induced in...

High-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) encoded by alleles at the Glu-A1, Glu-B1, and Glu-D1 loci confer unique end-use quality properties of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Wheat accessions with high-quality HMW-GSs combination Ax2*/Bx7OE/Dx5 usually exhibit strong gluten characteristics. In order to stack these three subunit genes molecular markers in breeding, an agarose gel-b...

in this study, 120 aegilops crassa (mmdd genome) accessions from iran were evaluated for high molecular weight proteins. based on sds-page analysis, 17 bands were selected and mass spectrometry was used for protein identification. among 17 bands selected for maldi-tof-tof-ms analyzing, only 4 bands were identified as high molecular weight glutenin subunit similar to aegilops ventricosa and trit...

We have performed a detailed characterization and identification of wheat gluten proteins obtained from the Teal variety of Canadian hard red spring wheat. RP-HPLC separation of the sample into 35 fractions has reduced the spectral complexity; this was followed by MALDI mass spectrometry (MS), which showed the presence of six or fewer resolved protein components above 20 kDa in each RP-HPLC fra...

Seed storage proteins in wheat endosperm, particularly high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS), are primary determinants of dough properties, and affect both end-use quality and grain utilization of wheat (Triticum aestivum L). In order to investigate the interactive effects between the transgenically overexpressed 1Ax1 subunit with different HMW-GS on dough quality traits, we develope...
