Kafirin structure and functionality [PDF]

, 2006
The structural and functional properties of kafirins are reviewed. Three classes of kafirin: the a, ß and ? forms have been identified at the protein level and one, the d, has been identified only at the gene and transcript levels.

QTL Mining and Validation of Grain Nutritional Quality Characters in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Using Two Introgression Line Populations

Agriculture, 2023
Nutritional grain quality is mainly influenced by the protein fraction content and grain protein content. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mining for five traits, about 245 and 284 BC3F3 individual families of two introgression line (IL) populations were ...

Quantifying accumulation characteristics of glutelin and prolamin in rice grains.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Glutelin and prolamin are the two major proteins in rice grains. Grain content of glutelin is considerably higher than that of prolamin in rice, but there is limited information on the factors determining the different grain contents of glutelin and ...

Expression profile of protein fractions in the developing kernel of normal, Opaque-2 and quality protein maize

Scientific Reports, 2021
Maize protein quality is determined by the composition of its endosperm proteins, which are classified as nutritionally poor zeins (prolamin and prolamin-like) and nutritionally rich non-zeins (albumin, globulin, glutelin-like, and glutelin).

Quantification of gliadin levels to the picogram level by flow cytometry [PDF]

, 2005
Celiac disease is a widely prevalent enteropathy caused by intolerance to gliadin, one of the gluten proteins. We developed two methods for the analysis of gliadin levels. Both methods use flow cytometry and rat antibodies against a 16-residue peptide of

RNA Interference-Mediated Simultaneous Suppression of Seed Storage Proteins in Rice Grains

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Seed storage proteins (SSPs) such as glutelin, prolamin and globulin are abundant components in some of the most widely consumed food cereals in the world.

The trafficking pathway of a wheat storage protein in transgenic rice endosperm [PDF]

, 2014
Background and Aims The trafficking of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of plant cells is a topic of considerable interest since this organelle serves as an entry point for proteins destined for other organelles, as well as for the ER itself ...

A comparison of methods to quantify prolamin contents in cereals [PDF]

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2011
Hydrophobic prolamins are endosperm storage proteins accounting for about 40% of the total protein in most cereals seeds. Despite the absence of a reference method, several procedures have been periodically published to quantify prolamins in cereals. The

Characterization of celiac disease related oat proteins: bases for the development of high quality oat varieties suitable for celiac patients [PDF]

, 2017
Some studies have suggested that the immunogenicity of oats depends on the cultivar. RP-HPLC has been proposed as a useful technique to select varieties of oats with reduced immunogenicity.
