Functional Properties of Guava Seed Glutelins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2005
Five guava seed glutelin extracts were obtained with different buffer solutions: Na(2)B(4)O(7) alone (Glut.Bo) or containing SDS (Glut. BoSDS), 2-mercaptoethanol (Glut.Bo2-ME), or a combination of both (Glut. BoSDS2-ME) and NaOH (Glut.Na). All borate buffer solutions were at pH 10. The higher yield of glutelins corresponded to the Glut.

Biochemical Characterization of Rice Glutelin [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1985
The two major subunits of rice glutelin, the acidic (alpha) and basic (beta) polypeptides were purified by chromatofocusing and cation exchange chromatography, respectively. The molecular weight range of the alpha polypeptides was 28.5 to 30.8 kilodaltons and the molecular weight range of the beta polypeptides was 20.6 to 21.6 kilodaltons ...
