Glutelin

Glutelin

Glutelins are soluble in dilute acids or bases, detergents, chaotropic or reducing agents. They are generally prolamin-like proteins in certain grass seeds. glutenin is the most common glutelin as it is found in wheat and is responsible from some of the refined baking properties in bread wheat. The glutelins of barley and ryecite journal | author = Shang H, Wei Y, Long H, Yan Z, Zheng Y | title = Identification of LMW glutenin-like genes from Secale sylvestre host. | journal = Genetika | volume = 41 | issue = 12 | pages = 1656–64 | year = 2005 | pmid = 16396452] have also been identified.

Typically there are HMW and LMW glutelins in these species, they crosslink with themselves and other proteins during baking via disulfide bonds.

A HMW glutelin (glutenin) of the grass tribe "Triticeae" can be sensitizing agents for coeliac disease in individuals who possess the HLA-DQ8 class II antigen receptor gene.cite journal | author = Dewar D, Amato M, Ellis H, Pollock E, Gonzalez-Cinca N, Wieser H, Ciclitira P | title = The toxicity of high molecular weight glutenin subunits of wheat to patients with coeliac disease. | journal = Eur J Gastroenterol Hepatol | volume = 18 | issue = 5 | pages = 483–91 | year = 2006 | pmid = 16607142 | doi = 10.1097/00042737-200605000-00005] (not yet characterized to the epitope level)
