Napins and cruciferins in rapeseed protein extracts have complementary roles in structuring emulsion-filled gels

Food Hydrocolloids, 2022
Abstract We investigated the complementary roles of napins and cruciferins present in a rapeseed protein mixture (RPM) in structuring emulsion-filled gels (EFGs). Napins are small molecular weight albumins with high interfacial activity while cruciferins, are high molecular weight globulins that form gels upon heat-induced gelation.

An expressed sequence tag (EST) library from developing fruits of an Hawaiian endemic mint (Stenogyne rugosa, Lamiaceae): characterization and microsatellite markers [PDF]

, 2006
Background The endemic Hawaiian mints represent a major island radiation that likely originated from hybridization between two North American polyploid lineages.

Profiling and Characterization of Seed Storage Proteins From Borage (Borago officinalis L.) Pressed Cake as a Novel Plant‐Based Protein Source

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
Borage (Borago officinalis L.) pressed cake, a by‐product of oil extraction, was profiled and characterized to evaluate its potential as a sustainable, plant‐based protein source. Protein fractionation revealed glutelin‐like proteins as predominant, accompanied by 2S albumin, 7S, and 11S globulin‐type proteins. Proteins exhibited high thermal stability

pH and NaCl dependent complexation between rapeseed cruciferin and napin

Food Hydrocolloids
The interaction between the main protein components of rapeseed, also called canola, was investigated in water as a function of the pH and in the presence of NaCl. Firstly, the solubility of purified cruciferin and napin was determined and the soluble fraction was characterized using light scattering techniques.

High throughput process development for the purification of rapeseed proteins napin and cruciferin by ion exchange chromatography

Food and Bioproducts Processing, 2021
Abstract Proteins derived from plant resources such as oilseed meals, canola and sunflower, are considered a viable alternative to animal proteins for food consumption. This work presents a rational methodology, using high throughput experimentation (HTE), for the separation of cruciferin and napin, the two major proteins of canola meal, by ...

Encapsulation and Functional Activity of Lactobacillus reuteri Strains: Advances, Challenges, and Perspectives

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the past decade, probiotics have gone from been special health supplements to widely incorporated components in many foods and nutrition products. This has led to more careful checks of their safety, viability, and functional performance under realistic processing and consumption conditions.

Heterologous Production and Characterization of Rapeseed Procruciferin Isoforms for Sustainable Food Protein Development

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 3, Issue 4, December 2025.
Cruciferin, a key seed storage protein in rapeseed, holds promise as sustainable food proteins. We systematically expressed six isoforms in E. coli, successfully producing three (Cru‐1, Cru‐A, Cru‐2/3A) in soluble form. These were purified and characterized with regard to stability and assembly state.

Seed architecture shapes embryo metabolism in oilseed rape [PDF]

, 2013
Constrained to develop within the seed, the plant embryo must adapt its shape and size to fit the space available. Here, we demonstrate how this adjustment shapes metabolism of photosynthetic embryo.
