Polymeric wheat endosperm proteins, especially the high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS), are probably the most interesting protein fraction giving the essential information about bread-making quality of wheat flour. A relatively new method that shows a great potential for a fast, reliable and automatable analysis of protein purity, sizing and quantification is microfluidic or Lab-on-a-Chip (LoaC) capillary electrophoresis. This work was aimed to explore the possibilities of implementation of LoaC method to analysis of protein samples isolated from a Serbian common wheat variety, emphasizing the steps that might bring uncertainties and affect reproducibility of obtained glutenin subunits quantitation results. A good resolution of protein bands in a molecular weight range of 14.0 to 220.0 kDa was achieved. The reproducibility of HMW-GS sizing and quantitation were good, with the average coefficient of variation values of 1.2% and 12.2%. The ratio of HMW-GS to low-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (LMW-GS) was about 20%. The investigation ruled out influences of the extract solution addition and the buffer addition steps of the applied method, as well as the individual chip influence on GS quantitation results. However, there was statistically significant difference between HMW-GS quantitation results of multi-step and one-step extraction procedures applied prior to glutenin subunits extraction step.

Using sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, three new high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit/subunit combinations were detected in a Tunisian wheat cultivar (BT-2288) and these were designated bands 26, 7 + 11, and 5 + 9. Analysis of 112 testcross seeds revealed that the genes controlling them were additional alleles at Glu-A1, Glu-B1, and Glu-D1 loci, respectively. These alleles enhance the genetic variability available for cultivar identification and possibly for improving the bread-making quality of hexaploid wheat.Key words: Triticum aestivum, Glu-1 loci, high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits.

Aegilops geniculata Roth is an annual grass relative to cultivated wheat and is widely distributed in North Algeria. Endosperm storage proteins of wheat and its relatives, namely glutenins and gliadins, play an important role in dough properties and bread making quality. In the present study, the different alleles encoded at the four glutenin loci (Glu-M1, Glu-U1, Glu-M3 and Glu-U3) were identified from thirty five accessions of the tetraploid wild wheat A. geniculata collected in Algeria using Sodium dodecyl Sulfate - Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). At Glu-M1 and Glu-U1 loci, encoding high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) or A-subunits, 15 and 12 alleles were observed respectively, including one new subunit. B-Low molecular weight glutenin subunits zone (B-LMW-GS) displayed a far greater variation, as 28 and 25 alleles were identified at loci Glu-M3 and Glu-U3 respectively. Thirty two subunits patterns were revealed at the C subunits- zone and a total of thirty four patterns resulted from the genetic combination of the two zones (B- and C-zone). The wide range of glutenin subunits variation (high molecular weight glutenin subunits and low molecular weight glutenin subunits) in this species has the potential to enhance the genetic variability for improving the quality of wheat./span>

The main goal of our study was to present research data on genes encoding high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) associated with high flour bread-making quality. This is the leading research objective in our institute in the area of wheat gluten in cultivars that have not been studied so far in that respect, but which can potentially be a valuable source of new information. Identification and characterization of high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) were performed using sequencing and SDS-PAGE and STS-PCR methods. Genes located in the vicinity of the Glu-1 locus have been identified and characterized in 28 Polish cultivars of Triticum aestivum. The results were then analyzed using the following computer programs: Finch TV, BLAST, MEGA 4, Molecular Imager® Gel Doc™ XR, and Quantity One software (Bio-Rad). Three alleles (a, b, c) have been identified in the Glu-A1 locus, 6 alleles (a, b, c, d, e, k) in the Glu-B1 locus, and 2 alleles (a, d) in Glu-D1 using the SDS-PAGE method. The amplification of specific HMW-GS sequences generated one product of 450 bp in 1Dx5 in 13 cultivars of old wheat and of 435 bp in 1Dx2 in 15 cultivars. The amplification products of primers for 1Dy10 and 1Dy12 genes were 422 bp and 552 bp in size, respectively.
