Distribution of Napin and Cruciferin in Developing Rape Seed Embryos [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1992
The distribution of napin and cruciferin, the two major storage proteins in rape seed, Brassica napus, has been visualized during seed development by antibody staining of paraffin-embedded and sectioned seeds. The results indicate that the synthesis of both proteins during embryogenesis is strictly regulated with respect to time and tissue.

Cell death-inducing DNA fragmentation factor alpha (DFFA)-like effectors (CIDEs) improve lipid droplet (LD) formation and oil accumulation in plant tissues. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Biotechnol J
Summary The cell death‐inducing DNA fragmentation factor alpha (DFFA)‐like effectors (CIDEs), including CIDEA, CIDEB and CIDEC, regulate the number and size of lipid droplets (LDs) in vertebrates. However, no homologue of CIDE has been reported in plants.

Shotgun proteomics of Brassica rapa seed proteins identifies vicilin as a major seed storage protein in the mature seed.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Proteins make up a large percentage of the Brassica seed and are second only to the oil in economic importance with uses for both animal and human nutrition.

Cloning and bioinformatics analyses of the coding DNA sequence (CDS) of Delta 6 Desaturase gene from Mortierella alpina (CBS 754.68) [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Journal of Microorganism, 2018
Introduction: Membrane-bound desaturases and related enzymes play a pivotal role in the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids. Delta6 desaturase is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of the unsaturated fatty acids.

Identification of a promoter region specifically active in the maturing endosperm of Arabidopsis seeds and its use for targeted modification of fatty acid metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant J
SUMMARY In angiosperm seeds, the relative proportions of the two zygotic tissues vary considerably from species to species. In many field‐grown oilseed species, and in those of the model species Arabidopsis thaliana, the embryo predominates, and studies of lipid metabolism in whole seeds reflect embryonic metabolism.

Selective extraction of napins: Process optimization and impact on structural and functional properties

open access: yesFood Hydrocolloids, 2022
There is a growing worldwide demand for alternative sources of proteins for human nutrition. In this context, many researches have been carried out to develop an original process for production of total proteins from rapeseed meal. Interestingly, some recent works have demonstrated a possible selective extraction of napins (rapeseed albumins). However,

Foaming properties of protein/pectin electrostatic complexes and foam structure at the nanoscale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The foaming properties, foaming capacity and foam stability, of soluble complexes of pectin and a globular protein, napin, have been investigated with a "Foamscan" apparatus.

Commentary: Pivoting during a pandemic: developing a new recruitment model for a randomised controlled trial in response to COVID-19

open access: yesTrials, 2021
Background Many non-COVID-19 trials were disrupted in 2020 and either struggled to recruit participants or stopped recruiting altogether. In December 2019, just before the pandemic, we were awarded a grant to conduct a randomised controlled trial, the ...
