Aim. To establish the presence of polymorphism and differences in variants of the protein spectrum of buckwheat seed storage proteins in groups of varieties with different colors of the flower corolla. Methods. Electrophoresis using the Laemmli method in 17.5% of the separating PAAG gels, visualization and identification of the spectrum variants. Results. The common variants of the electrophoretic spectrum for all groups of buckwheat varieties and the heterogeneity of each of the studied groups of genotypes are revealed. By frequency of variants of electrophoretic spectrum between groups of varieties were detected statistically significant differences and reliable predominance of individual variants in green-flower morphotypes of buckwheat were established. Conclusions. Differences in frequency of occurrence of variants of electrophoretic spectrum in different morphotypes of buckwheat indicate the probable processes of preservation of individual adaptive alleles of genes of seed storage proteins, which occurred in populations when varieties under the pressure of breeding process. Keywords: edible buckwheat, spare proteins, globulins, albumins, polymorphism.

A homogeneous preparation of metalloproteinase, purified 1000-fold, was obtained from buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) seeds. The Mr of the enzyme, determined by SDS/PAGE, was 34,000 (it was 39,000 by gel chromatography). Its pH optimum was 8.0-8.2 with 13 S globulin, from buckwheat seeds, as substrate. Atomic-absorption spectroscopy revealed the presence of one Zn2+ ion per enzyme molecule. The enzyme was completely inhibited by EDTA (1 mM), zincone (1 mM) and 1, 10-phenanthroline (1 mM). The metalloproteinase performed limited proteolysis of the following seed storage proteins: 13 S globulin from buckwheat seeds and 11 S globulin from soybean (Glycine max) seeds. It hydrolysed three peptide bonds formed by the amino groups of Leu15, Tyr16 and Phe25 in the oxidized B-chain of insulin. In its main properties the enzyme is similar to metalloproteinases of animal and bacterial origin.

Aim. The aim of the research was to study common wheat material developed from crosses with Aegilops biuncialis Vis. using storage protein loci as markers for chromosome 1U. Methods. SDS and APAG electrophoreses of seed storage proteins were employed to identify alleles at the Glu-1 and Gli-1 loci. The following markers of chromosome 1U of Ae. biuncialis were used: the Glu-U1 locus encoding high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits located on the long arm (1UL) and the gliadin locus Gli-U1 on the short arm (1US). Results. In F6–F7, elimination of chromosome 1U material with a frequency of about 0.222 proceeded. This indicates selection against unbalanced genotypes, which could be tracked using markers for chromosome 1U. In wheat F4–F6 hybrids from crosses with Ae. biuncialis, we revealed a high frequency of formation of genotypes possessing the 1UL arm and lacking 1US. Conclusions. Since the Glu-U1 locus on the arm 1UL encodes high-molecular-weight subunits which directly determine bread-making quality, the developed wheat material is a source of a new allele of this locus introgressed from Ae. biuncialis for enriching the common wheat gene pool. Keywords: Triticum aestivum, Aegilops biuncialis, storage proteins, introgression.

High-temperature stress during the grain filling stage has a deleterious effect on grain yield and end-use quality. Plants undergo various transcriptional events of protein complexity as defensive responses to various stressors. The “Keumgang” wheat cultivar was subjected to high-temperature stress for 6 and 10 days beginning 9 days after anthesis, then two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) and peptide analyses were performed. Spots showing decreased contents in stressed plants were shown to have strong similarities with a high-molecular glutenin gene, TraesCS1D02G317301 (TaHMW1D). QRT-PCR results confirmed that TaHMW1D was expressed in its full form and in the form of four different transcript variants. These events always occurred between repetitive regions at specific deletion sites (5′-CAA (Glutamine) GG/TG (Glycine) or (Valine)-3′, 5′-GGG (Glycine) CAA (Glutamine) -3′) in an exonic region. Heat stress led to a significant increase in the expression of the transcript variants. This was most evident in the distal parts of the spike. Considering the importance of high-molecular weight glutenin subunits of seed storage proteins, stressed plants might choose shorter polypeptides while retaining glutenin function, thus maintaining the expression of glutenin motifs and conserved sites.

Rapeseed oil-extracted expeller cake mostly contains protein. Various approaches have been used to isolate, detect and measure proteins in rapeseeds, with a particular focus on seed storage proteins (SSPs). To maximize the protein yield and minimize hazardous chemical use, isolation costs and the loss of seed material, optimization of the extraction method is pivotal. For some studies, it is also necessary to minimize or avoid seed-to-seed cross-contamination for phenotyping and single-tissue type analysis to know the exact amount of any bioactive component in a single seed, rather than a mixture of multiple seeds. However, a simple and robust method for single rapeseed seed protein extraction (SRPE) is unavailable. To establish a strategy for optimizing SRPE for downstream gel-based protein analysis, yielding the highest amount of SSPs in the most economical and rapid way, a variety of different approaches were tested, including variations to the seed pulverization steps, changes to the compositions of solvents and reagents and adjustments to the protein recovery steps. Following SRPE, 1D-SDS-PAGE was used to assess the quality and amount of proteins extracted. A standardized SRPE procedure was developed and then tested for yield and reproducibility. The highest protein yield and quality were obtained using a ball grinder with stainless steel beads in Safe-Lock microcentrifuge tubes with methanol as the solvent, providing a highly efficient, economic and effective method. The usefulness of this SRPE was validated by applying the procedure to extract protein from different Brassica oilseeds and for screening an ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) mutant population of Brassica rapa R-0-18. The outcomes provide useful methodology for identifying and characterizing the SSPs in the SRPE.

Gliadins are the most abundant component of the seed storage proteins in cereals and, in combination with glutenins, are important for the bread-making quality of wheat. They are divided into four subfamilies, the α-, β-, γ-, and ω-gliadins, depending on their electrophoresis pattern, chromosomal location, and DNA and protein structures. Using a PCR-based strategy we isolated and sequenced an ω-gliadin sequence. We also determined the chromosomal subarm location of this sequence using wheat aneuploids and deletion lines. The gene is 1858 bp long and contains a coding sequence 1248 bp in length. Like all other gliadin gene families characterized in cereals, the ω-gliadin gene described here had characteristic features including two repeated sequences 300 bp upstream of the start codon. At the DNA level, the gene had a high degree of similarity to the ω-secalin and C-hordein genes of rye and barley, but exhibited much less homology to the α- and β-gliadin gene families. In terms of the deduced amino acid sequence, this gene has about 80 and 70% similarity to the ω-secalin and C-hordein genes, respectively, and possesses all the features reported for other gliadin gene families. The ω-gliadin gene has about 30 repeats of the core consensus sequences PQQPX and XQQPQQX, twice as many as other gliadin gene families. Southern blotting and PCR analysis with aneuploid and deletion lines for the short arm of chromosome 1A showed that the ω-gliadin was located on the distal 25% of the short arm of chromosome 1A. By comparison of PCR and A-PAGE profiles for deletion stocks, its genomic location must be at a different locus from gli-A1a in 'Chinese Spring'.Key words: glutenin, omega gliadin, storage protein, Triticum aestivum, secalin.
