Gliadin proteins of 113 common or bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars and advanced lines from China and other countries, were analyzed by high performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE) and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). A major protein peak migrating at 3 min by HPCE and eluting at about 20 min by RP-HPLC was identified in the ω-gliadin region. It was present in cultivars with good pan bread-making quality, whereas most cultivars with poor bread-making quality lacked this protein peak. Quality testing and statistical analysis showed that this ω-gliadin peak was significantly related to dough strength, loaf volume and loaf score. It was separated into two apparent protein components by one-dimensional SDS-PAGE and two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE). According to their relative mobilities on the gels, the proteins were designated ω-15 and ω-16, and their accurate molecular masses (42590.5 Da for ω-15 and 41684.1 Da for ω-16) were determined by MALDI-TOF-MS. The ω-15 and ω-16 gliadins possessed the N-terminal amino acid sequences of ARELNPSNKELQQQQ and KELQSPQQQF, and therefore they belonged to 1D-encoded ω-2 type and ω-1 type gliadins, respectively. Both gliadin subunits were always present together among the 86 cultivars analyzed, suggesting that they were encoded by two closely linked genes at Gli-D1 locus. The accumulative characteristics of gliadins during grain development indicated possible additive quantitative effects of ω-15+16 on dough strength. The ω-15 and ω-16 gliadins could be used as valuable genetic markers for wheat quality improvement. 相似文献
The aim of the present study was to investigate the anti-diabetic effect of CGSGCG and its beneficial effects on gut microbiota in type 2 diabetes (T2D) mice induced by streptozotocin and high sucrose and high fat diet. The results showed that treatment with CGSGCG reduced fasting blood glucose, improved oral glucose tolerance test, protected the liver from injury, and reduced inflammation in T2D mice. The contents of acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, isobutyric acid, valeric acid and isovaleric acid in CGSGCG group were 2.49-, 1.74-, 3.31-, 1.93-, 1.36- and 1.30-fold than that of the model group. Moreover, administration of CGSGCG up-regulated the expression of INSR/IRS-1/PI3K/AKT/GLUT4 and mTOR but down-regulated the P38MAPK expression. Furthermore, the abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Verrucomicrobia, Proteobacteria, Osillibacter, Dubosiella and Lactococcus in intestinal tract increased, indicating that CGSCGG regulated and improved the bacterial community structure of T2D mice, which were closely related to glycometabolism.
Summary Of 250 isolates ofPhytophthora infestans obtained from Northern Ireland potato crops between 1981 and 1993, only six proved to be of the A2 mating type, the remainder
being A1. The first A2 isolate was obtained from a tuber in 1987. The frequency of A2 isolates from 1987 onwards was 3%, a
lower incidence than has been reported for England and Wales and the Republic of Ireland. There was no association between
phenylamide resistance and mating type. 相似文献
