Modification of Vegetable Proteins to Release Bioactive Peptides Able to Treat Metabolic Syndrome—In Silico Assessment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Metabolic syndrome comprises a cluster of diseases like hypertension, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, among others. Its treatment is based on lifestyle modification; however, this treatment often fails to improve metabolic syndrome indicators over ...

Development of a Sequence Searchable Database of Celiac Disease-Associated Peptides and Proteins for Risk Assessment of Novel Food Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Allergy, 2022
Celiac disease (CeD) is an autoimmune enteropathy induced by prolamin and glutelin proteins in wheat, barley, rye, and triticale recognized by genetically restricted major histocompatibility (MHC) receptors.

Targeting of prolamins by RNAi in bread wheat: Effectiveness of seven silencing-fragment combinations for obtaining lines devoid of coeliac disease epitopes from highly immunogenic gliadins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Gluten proteins are responsible for the viscoelastic properties of wheat flour but also for triggering pathologies in susceptible individuals, of which coeliac disease (CD) and noncoeliac gluten sensitivity may affect up to 8% of the population. The only

Structural Characterization of Act c 10.0101 and Pun g 1.0101—Allergens from the Non-Specific Lipid Transfer Protein Family

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
(1) Background: Non-specific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs), which belong to the prolamin superfamily, are potent allergens. While the biological role of LTPs is still not well understood, it is known that these proteins bind lipids.

An alternative allergen risk management approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Protein components in food can trigger immune-mediated response in susceptible individuals. International law requires risk assessment to be undertaken by competent individuals to minimize food safety risk to consumers.

The synthesis and deposition of the prolamin storage proteins (secalins) of rye

open access: yesPlanta, 1983
The synthesis and deposition of the endosperm storage proteins of rye, usually termed secalins, has been studied. The rate of accumulation of secalin in developing rye grain was at a maximum between 3 and 5 weeks after anthesis. Some changes in the proportions of the four major groups of secalin polypeptides were observed during maturation, notably an ...

Physico-chemical and structural properties of four rice bran protein fractions based on the multiple solvent extraction method

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2015
The physicochemical and structural properties of the concentrated rice bran protein (CRBP) and rice bran protein fractions - RBPF (albumin, globulin, prolamin, and glutelin) were investigated on the basis of multiple solvent extraction method.

Glutenin and Gliadin, a Piece in the Puzzle of their Structural Properties in the Cell Described through Monte Carlo Simulations

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Gluten protein crosslinking is a predetermined process where specific intra- and intermolecular disulfide bonds differ depending on the protein and cysteine motif. In this article, all-atom Monte Carlo simulations were used to understand the formation of

Deep sequencing reveals the complex and coordinated transcriptional regulation of genes related to grain quality in rice cultivars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Milling yield and eating quality are two important grain quality traits in rice. To identify the genes involved in these two traits, we performed a deep transcriptional analysis of developing seeds using both massively parallel ...
