Udacz. et Migusch) accession Daomai 2. The complete open reading frame (ORF) of 1Dy10. 1 was 1 965 bp, encoding 655 amino acids. The numbers and distribution of cysteines in 1Dy 10.1 were similar to those of 1Dy10 and other y-type subunits. In the N-terminal of 1Dy 10.1, an amino acid was changed from L (leucine) to P (proline) at position 55. The repetitive domain of 1Dy10.1 differed from those of known HMW subunits by substitutions, insertions or/and deletions involving single or more amino acid residues. In the repetitive domain of subunit 1Dyl 0.1, the deletion of tripeptide GQQ in the consensus unit PGQGQQ resulted in the appearance of the motif PGQ that have not been observed in other known y-type HMW subunits. In comparison with the subunit 1Dy 12, a deletion of dipeptide GQ, which occurred in subunit IDy10, was also observed in subunit 1Dy10.1. The cloned IDylO. 1 gene had been successfully expressed in Escherichia coli, and the expressed protein had the identical mobility with the endogenous subunit IDy10.1 from seed.展开更多

Major quality parameters related to dough strength, gluten proteins(including high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits(HMW-GS) and low-molecular-weight glutenin subunits(LMW-GS), gliadins), and their ratios between SHWSD and the weak gluten wheat control Chuannong 16(CN16) were measured in at least three environments(except STD7). The zeleny sedimentation value(ZSV), dough development time(DDT), dough stability time(DST), and farinograph quality number(FQN) of SHWSD were considered stable under different environments, with their respective ranges being 8.00–17.67 mL, 0.57–1.50 min, 0.73–1.80 min, and 9.50–27.00. The ZSV, DDT, DST, and FQN of SHWSD were smaller than those of CN16, suggesting that SHWSD had a weaker dough strength than CN16. Although SHWSD had a lower gluten index than CN16, its wet and dry gluten contents were similar to or even higher than those of CN16 in all environments tested. The protein content of grains(12.81–18.21%) and flours(14.20–20.31%) in SHWSD was higher than that in CN16. The amount of HMW-GS in SHWSD sharply decreased under the expression of fewer HMW-GS genes, and the LMW-GS, gliadins, and total glutenins were simultaneously increased in SHWSD in comparison with CN16. Moreover, SHWSD had higher ratios of LMWGS/glutenin and gliadin/glutenin but a lower ratio of HMW-GS/glutenin than CN16. These results provide necessary information for the utilization of SHWSD in weak-gluten wheat breeding.展开更多
