a total of 165 wheat landraces with their originated from northwest regions of iran were studied at research station of agricultural faculty, univ. of tabriz, using two experimental designs in two spring and fall growing seasons. during these experiments, growth habits of 104 wheat landraces were assessed and their representative seeds harvested in similar conditions. these landraces were analy...

The classical Osborne wheat protein fractions (albumins, globulins, gliadins, and glutenins), as well as several proteins from each of the four subunits of gliadin using SDS-PAGE analyses, were determined in the grain of five bread (T. aestivum L.) and five durum wheat (T. durum Desf.) genotypes. In addition, content of tryptophan and wet gluten were analyzed. Gliadins and glutenins comprise fr...

Methods to sequentially extract and fractionate wheat flour proteins were evaluated to reliably quantify gliadins, glutenins, and albumins/globulins in single flour samples. Compositions of the resulting protein fractions were analyzed by RP-HPLC combined with SDS-PAGE. Unknown proteins were identified by mass spectrometry or N-terminal sequencing. The best separation and recovery of discrete a...

The polypeptide subunits of wheat glutenin obtained after reductive cleavage of disulfide bonds have been separated into two fractions by a modified Osborne technique. Approximately 62% of the subunits by weight are soluble, as is gliadin, in neutral 70% ethanol; the ethanol-soluble subunits are mainly of 44,000 molecular weight (MW). The ethanol-insoluble glutenin subunit fraction is markedly ...

Cereal Chem. 72(6):527-532 Wheat protein fractions, separated by the Osborne Solvent Fractionaseparated by HPCE. Combined results of this study and our previous tion Procedure, were characterized by high-performance capillary elecstudies provide a catalog of individual gliadin information from HPCE, trophoresis (HPCE). Each fraction was separated on a 27-cm fused-glass HPLC, acid-polyacrylamide...

seed–storage proteins are important reservoirs of food and energy which are also involved in the determination of bread making quality. solubility properties of these proteins are traditionally classified into four classes: albumin, globulin, prolamin and glutelin. gliadin and glutenin have also been studied extensively and the genetics and biochemistry are relatively well known. grain proteins...

In this study, changes in hydrophobic interactions among gluten proteins were analyzed during dough mixing. Size-exclusion high-performance chromatography and two-dimensional fluorescence difference gel electrophoresis performed on extracted with 1-propanol by weakening the interaction. The amount of 30% increased from start mixing to peak consistency, suggesting that strongly aggregated weaken...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Coeliac disease is a chronic intestinal disorder most probably caused by an abnormal immune reaction to wheat gliadin. The identification of the HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 as the molecules responsible for the HLA association in coeliac disease strongly implicates a role for CD4 T cells in disease pathogenesis. Indeed, CD4 T cells specific for gliadin have been isolated from the small i...
