Localization of zein genes in maize
Biochemical Genetics, 1987The band patterns of zein polypeptides were determined for many commercial inbred corn lines and maize stocks using isofocusing in agarose gels and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-urea gels. Each inbred line or homozygous maize strain genotype has a distinct zein profile which has been catalogued according to the distance of charge migration and molecular

Structural Characterization of α-Zein
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2005A variety of published physical measurements, computational algorithms, and structural modeling methods have been used to create a molecular model of 19 kDa alpha-zein (Z19). Zetaeins are water-insoluble storage proteins found in corn protein bodies. Analyses of the protein sequence using probability algorithms, structural studies by circular dichroism,

Core-shell biopolymer nanoparticles were fabricated using a hydrophobic protein (zein) as the core and a hydrophilic anionic polysaccharide (ι-carrageenan) as the shell. The outer layer was physically cross-linked using cationic calcium ions to form salt

Production of Textile Fibers from Zein and a Soy Protein‐Zein Blend
Cereal Chemistry, 1997ABSTRACTZein fibers were successfully prepared by a wet‐spinning technique from a zein suspension formulated with 15% zein, 60% water, 22% 0.4N sodium hydroxide, and 3% urea by weight. Tenacities were measured with an Instron machine, and flexibility was determined by noting the smallest diameter rod around which a fiber could be looped without ...

Adsorption characteristics of zein protein on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces have been investigated to understand the orientation changes associated with the protein structure on a surface. The protein is adsorbed by a self-assembly procedure on a monolayer-modified gold surface.

Natural bio-based zein films were prepared by incorporating cinnamon essential oil (CEO) and chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs) at 2% and 4% (w/w) amounts, respectively, in order to provide mechanical and antimicrobial functionalities.

Textile Research Journal, 1947
The acetylation of zein fibers increased the water-resistance, improved the softness of the fiber by moderation of the severe formaldehyde post-cure, improved the boil-resistance, whitened the fiber by removal of pigments, and decreased the dye uptake. Acetylation was accomplished with acetic anhydride, with sodium acetate or sulfuric acid as catalyst.

Adenine methylation in zein genes
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1987This paper reports the novel finding of adenine methylation in higher plants. Comparison of restriction patterns of genomic maize DNA digested with enzymes MboI and Sau3A enabled us to detect the existence of adenine methylation in zein genes. Adenine methylation within or around zein genes turned out to be similar in endosperm (where zeins are ...
