Journal ArticleDOI
Cereal seed storage proteins: structures, properties and role in grain utilization
Peter R. Shewry,Nigel G. Halford +1 more
TL;DR: The role of the gluten proteins of wheat in determining the quality of the grain for breadmaking and how their amount and composition can be manipulated leading to changes in dough mixing properties is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Arabidopsis CDPK-SnRK Superfamily of Protein Kinases
Estelle M. Hrabak,Catherine W. M. Chan,Michael Gribskov,Jeffrey F. Harper,Jung H. Choi,Nigel G. Halford,Jörg Kudla,Sheng Luan,Hugh G. Nimmo,Michael R. Sussman,Martine Thomas,Kay Walker-Simmons,Jian-Kang Zhu,Alice C. Harmon +13 more
TL;DR: Analysis of intron placements supports the hypothesis that CDPKs, CRks, PPCKs and PEPRKs have a common evolutionary origin; however there are no conserved intron positions between these kinases and the SnRK subgroup.
Journal ArticleDOI
High molecular weight subunits of wheat glutenin
TL;DR: The high molecular weight subunits of wheat glutenin are of considerable interest because of their relationship to breadmaking quality and how they may be assembled to form disulphide-bonded polymers that confer elasticity on wheat dough.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asparagine in plants
TL;DR: There is now clear evidence that soluble asparagine accumulates in most if not all plant organs during periods of low rates of protein synthesis and a plentiful supply of reduced nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
The structure and properties of gluten: an elastic protein from wheat grain
TL;DR: The wheat gluten proteins correspond to the major storage proteins that are deposited in the starchy endosperm cells of the developing grain and are brought together to form a continuous viscoelastic network when flour is mixed with water to form dough.
