Comparative Structural, Emulsifying, and Biological Properties of 2 Major Canola Proteins, Cruciferin and Napin

Journal of Food Science, 2008
ABSTRACT:  Canola is an economically important farm‐gate crop in Canada. To further explore the potential of canola protein as value‐added food and nutraceutical ingredients, a better understanding of fundamental properties of 2 major canola proteins is necessary.

Multiple internal sorting determinants can contribute to the trafficking of cruciferin to protein storage vacuoles

Plant Molecular Biology, 2015
Trafficking of seed storage proteins to protein storage vacuoles is mediated by carboxy terminal and internal sorting determinants (ISDs). Protein modelling was used to identify candidate ISDs residing near surface-exposed regions in Arabidopsis thaliana cruciferin A (AtCruA). These were verified by AtCruA fusion to yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) and

Subunit composition affects formation and stabilization of o/w emulsions by 11S seed storage protein cruciferin

Food Research International, 2020
The 11S globulin cruciferin is the major storage protein in Brassicaceae/Cruciferae seeds and exists as a hexamer in its natural configuration. Arabidopsis thaliana cruciferin is composed of CRUA, CRUB and CRUC subunits. Wild type (WT) cruciferin and cruciferins composed only of identical CRUA, CRUB and CRUC subunits were examined for their ability to ...

Improvement in the quality of seed storage protein by transformation of Brassica napus with an antisense gene for cruciferin

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1995
The levels of certain essential amino acids, in particular cysteine, lysine and methionine, in the seed storage protein of a commercial spring variety of rape, Brassica napus, have been increased by the introduction of an antisense gene for cruciferin, which is the most abundant storage protein in rapeseed. The antisense construct contained part of the

Characterization of the 12S storage protein of Brassica napus (cruciferin): Disulfide bonding between subunits

Physiologia Plantarum, 1990
Cruciferin (12S globulin) is a large, neutral, oligomeric protein synthesized in rapeseed (Brassica napus) during the seed development. It is composed of six subunit pairs. Each pair consists of one heavy α chain (30 kDa) and one light β chain (20 kDa). Four different subunit pairs exist.

Cruciferin gene families are expressed coordinately but with tissue-specific differences during Brassica napus seed development

Plant Molecular Biology, 1993
The major storage protein in seeds of Brassica napus, the 12S globulin cruciferin, is composed of three different groups of subunits; cru1, cru2/3 and cru4. By using gene family-specific probes, we have investigated the accumulation, rate of synthesis and spatial distribution of transcripts corresponding to the different groups of cruciferin subunits ...

The relationship between mature chains and their precursors of cruciferin, the 12S storage protein of Brassica napus

Plant Science, 1990
Abstract Cruciferin (12S globulin) is a large, neutral, oligomeric protein synthesized in rapeseed (Brassica napus) during seed development. It is composed of six subunit pairs. Each pair is synthesized as a precursor which in turn gives rise to one heavy α chain ( M r approx. 30 000) and one light β chain ( M r approx.

SAXS and other spectroscopic analysis of 12S cruciferin isolated from the seeds of Brassica nigra

Journal of Molecular Structure, 2017
Abstract Oilseeds of the plant family Brassicaceae are important for providing both lipid and protein contents to human nutrition. Cruciferins (12S globulins) are seed storage proteins, which are getting attention due to their allergenic and pathogenicity related nature.

Effect of pH and Ionic Strength on the Heat Stability of Rapeseed 12S Globulin (Cruciferin) by the ANS Fluorescence Method

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1996
The heat stability of rapeseed 12S globulin (cruciferin) was examined using 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulphonic acid (ANS) as a fluorescence probe. Heating cruciferin (0.06-0.3 mg ml -1 in 10 mM glycyl-glycyl piperizine buffer, pH 7.0, with 0.1-1.0 M NaCl) for 20 min increased its hydrophobicity as monitored by ANS fluorescence measurements.

The behaviour of rapeseed cruciferin on chromatofocusing

Food / Nahrung, 1993
AbstractCruciferin, a main storage protein of rapeseeds has been investigated by means of chromatofocusing, isoelectric focusing and electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. It was shown, that the half molecules of this oligomeric protein differ from each other by subunit composition. There are specific forms of cruciferin.
