All current and old wheat cultivars grown in Iran were characterised by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) banding patterns for each cultivar were assigned a Glu-1 quality score, a theoretical quality score based on Payne’s Glu-1 quality assignments. At the Glu-A1 loci, HMW-GS subunit compositions N, 7 + 8, 2 + 12 and 2*, 7 + 8, 2 + 12 were found to be predominant being expressed in 24 and 15 cultivars, respectively, out of 95. Eighteen different alleles were identified for the 3 loci studied: Glu-A1 (3), Glu-B1 (9), and Glu-D1 (6). The glutenin quality scores of Iranian wheat ranged from 4 to 10, with an average of 7.4. It was found that some cultivars were heterogeneous in HMW-GS composition. In cv. Cooleh, only one glutenin subunit at the Glu-B1 locus was present. HMW-GS 2*** + 12′ was found in 6 cultivars and biotypes. The results obtained here describing the allelic composition of bread wheat commonly grown in Iran may be useful in wheat breeding programs selecting for good quality parameters.

Lab-on-a-chip technology is an emerging and convenient system to easily and quickly separate proteins of high molecular weight. The current study established a high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) identification system using Lab-on-a-chip for three, six, and three of the allelic variations at the Glu-A1, Glu-B1, and Glu-D1 loci, respectively, which are commonly used in wheat breeding programs. The molecular weight of 1Ax1 and 1Ax2* encoded by Glu-A1 locus were of 200 kDa and 192 kDa and positioned below 1Dx subunits. The HMW-GS encoded by Glu-B1 locus were electrophoresed in the following order below 1Ax1 and 1Ax2*: 1Bx13 ≥ 1Bx7 = 1Bx7OE > 1Bx17 > 1By16 > 1By8 = 1By18 > 1By9. 1Dx2 and Dx5 showed around 4-kDa difference in their molecular weights, with 1Dy10 and 1Dy12 having 11-kDa difference, and were clearly differentiated on Lab-on-a-chip. Additionally, some of the HMW-GS, including 1By8, 1By18, and 1Dy10, having different theoretical molecular weights showed similar electrophoretic mobility patterns on Lab-on-a-chip. The relative protein amount of 1Bx7OE was two-fold higher than that of 1Bx7 or 1Dx5 and, therefore, translated a significant increase in the protein amount in 1Bx7OE. Similarly, the relative protein amounts of 8 & 10 and 10 & 18 were higher than each subunit taken alone. Therefore, this study suggests the established HMW-GS identification system using Lab-on-a-chip as a reliable approach for evaluating HMW-GS for wheat breeding programs.

SUMMARYThe gene(s) controlling the high-molecular-weight glutelin subunits in rye (designated as Glu-Rl) was mapped with respect to the centromere using a 1RL-1DS wheat-rye translocation line and sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Analysis of 479 seeds from test-crosses between a 1R/1RL-1DS heterozygote and the cultivar India 115, revealed 14·6% aneuploid and 3·95% recombinant progeny. Excluding the aneuploids, this locus was calculated to be 4·65 ± 1·04 cM from the centromere on the long arm of chromosome 1R, which is comparable to the position of the homoeologous loci in wheat and barley.

Variation in the electrophoretic banding patterns of high molecular weight (HMW) glutenin subunits of 274 hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties from China was examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Twenty-seven different major glutenin HMW subunits were identified. Each variety contained 3–5 subunits and 29 different glutenin subunit patterns were segregated. Seventeen alleles were identified based on comparison of subunit mobilities with those previously found for hexaploid wheat. Chinese hexaploid wheats exhibited particular allelic variation in glutenin HMW subunit composition and this variation differed from that found in wheats from Japanese and other countries. Average Glu-1 quality scores of 274 Chinese wheat varieties in the present study have been shown to be higher than that of Japanese wheats. Considerable genetic variation in the HMW glutenin subunit compositions of the Chinese wheats was observed in the present study and previously. Alleles from Chinese hexaploid wheat varieties have not been extensively introduced into Japan and other countries. The present data may indicate possible applications of Chinese germplasm in wheat breeding programs. To improve the wheat quality, genetic variation should be attempted through the introduction of genes of Chinese varieties into varieties in Japan and other countries.

The endosperm storage proteins of 174 Japanese wheat (Triticum aestivum) landraces were fractionated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to determine their high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutenin subunit composition. These are alleles for complex gene loci, Glu-A1, Glu-B1, and Glu-D1, that are present in Japanese hexaploid wheat landraces. These were identified by comparison with the subunit mobility previously found in hexaploid wheat. Twenty-four different, major glutenin HMW subunits were identified. Each landrace contained 3–5 subunits, and 17 different glutenin subunit patterns were observed for 13 alleles in Japanese landraces. Japanese landraces showed specific allelic variation in glutenin HMW subunits, different from those in non-Japanese hexaploid wheats.

High-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) play an important role in the breadmaking quality of wheat flour. In China, cultivars such as Triticum aestivum 'Xiaoyan No. 6' carrying the 1Bx14 and 1By15 glutenin subunits usually have attributes that result in high-quality bread and noodles. HMW-GS 1Bx14 and 1By15 were isolated by preparative sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and used as an antigen to immunize BALB/c mice. A resulting monoclonal antibody belonging to the IgG1 subclass was shown to bind to all HMW-GSs of Triticum aestivum cultivars, but did not bind to other storage proteins of wheat seeds in a Western blot analysis. After screening a complementary DNA expression library from immature seeds of 'Xiaoyan No. 6' using the monoclonal antibody, the HMW-GS 1By15 gene was isolated and fully sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequence showed an extra stretch of 15 amino acid repeats consisting of a hexapeptide and a nonapeptide in the repetitive domain of this y-type HMW subunit. Bacterial expression of a modified 1By15 gene, in which the coding sequence for the signal peptide was removed and a BamHI site eliminated, gave rise to a protein with mobility identical to that of HMW-GSs extracted from seeds of 'Xiaoyan No. 6' via SDS-PAGE. This approach for isolating genes using specific monoclonal antibody against HMW-GS genes is a good alternative to the extensively used polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology based on sequence homology of HMW-GSs in wheat and its relatives.Key words: wheat, HMW-GS, monoclonal antibody, immunoscreen.

Hmw Glutenin

‘High-molecular-weight’ (HMW, high-Mr) glutenin subunits are protein constituents of wheat (Triticum aestivum) seeds and are responsible in part for the viscoelasticity of the dough used to make bread. Two subunits, numbered 10 and 12, are the products of allelic genes. Their amino acid sequences have been derived from the nucleic acid sequences of the respective genes. Subunit 10 has fewer amino acids than subunit 12, but migrates more slowly on SDS/PAGE (polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis). This anomaly is due to between one and six of the amino acid differences between the subunits, localized towards the C-terminal end of the proteins. This has been established by making chimaeric genes between the genes for subunits 10 and 12, transcribing and translating them in vitro and analysing the products by SDS/PAGE. The postulated conformational differences between subunits 10 and 12 are discussed in relation to current hypotheses for the structure of HMW glutenin subunits.

A novel high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit encoded by the Glu-1D locus was identified in hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Noe and was designated as 1Dy12.3. This subunit differed in SDS-PAGE mobility from the well-known 1Dy10 and 1Dy12 subunits that are also encoded by this locus. An analysis of the gene sequences confirmed the uniqueness of 1Dy12.3 and revealed that it is most closely related to the 1Dy12 subunit. The size of the deduced protein was calculated to be 67 884 Da, which is different from the 1Dy10 and 1Dy12 subunits (67 475 Da and 68 713 Da, respectively). The 1Dy12.3 protein consists of 652 residues, with a highly conserved signal sequence and N- and C-terminal domains, although the central repetitive domain comprising motifs of hexapeptide (PGQGQQ) and nonapeptide (GYYPTSLQQ) repeats was less conserved. The 1Dy12.3 subunit demonstrates fewer QHPEQG hexapeptide motifs and exhibits an increased number of methionine residues in comparison to the other characterised high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits. The 1Dy12.3 subunit was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli and was detected with a prolamin-specific antibody. The size of the detected immunocomplex corresponded to the native 1Dy12.3 protein isolated from grains. The existence and characterisation of this novel high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit increases the diversity of the glutenins encoded by the Glu-1D locus.

A novel high molecular weight glutenin subunit encoded by the Glu-1B locus was identified in the French genotype Bagou, which we named 1B × 6.5. This subunit differed in SDS-PAGE from well-known 1B × 6 and 1B × 7 subunits, which are also encoded at this locus. Subunit 1B × 6.5 has a theoretical molecular weight of 88,322.83 Da, which is more mobile than 1B × 6 subunit, and isoelectric point (pI) of about 8.7, which is lower than that for 1B × 6 subunit. The specific primers were designed to amplify and sequence 2476 bp of the Glu-1B locus from genotype Bagou. A high level of similarity was found between the sequence encoding 1B × 6.5 and other x-type encoding alleles of this locus.
