The G2 (A2B1a) glycinin subunit from soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) was purified and renatured to the homohexameric holoprotein. This protein along with purified beta-conglycinin were subjected to limited proteolysis by trypsin. The generated polypeptide fragments were separated via SDS/PAGE and the
Allergy to hazelnut (Corylus avellana) can be severe and occur at young age. Atopic dermatitis (AD) can involve sensitization to various foods. The objective is to investigate the pattern of hazelnut sensitization in infants with AD. Sera of 34 infants all under 1 year of age and suffering from AD
The glycinin gene family encoding the glycinin subunits in soybean plants is composed of at least five gene members. A genomic clone lambda S312 containing the Gy4 gene from a genomic library of cv. Forrest was isolated and partially characterized. The organization of this gene was found to be
In this study, a single, improved methodology was used to extract, fractionate and purify the 11S (legumin-type or related to the alpha-conglutin from Lupinus albus L.), 7S (vicilin-type or related to the beta-conglutin from L. albus) and 2S (related to the gamma-conglutin from L. albus) families of
We have characterized the development of seeds in the model legume Lotus japonicus. Like soybean (Glycine max) and pea (Pisum sativum), Lotus develops straight seed pods and each pod contains approximately 20 seeds that reach maturity within 40 days. Histological sections show the characteristic
The sequence of a gene encoding convicilin, a seed storage protein in pea (Pisum sativum L.), is reported. This gene, designated cvcA, is one of a sub-family of two active genes. The transcription start of cvcA was mapped. Convicilin genes are expressed in developing pea seed cotyledons, with
