Globulins wheat proteins

Wheat protein fractions Symmetrical Size distribution of wheat protein fractions (albumins and globulins, gliadins, glutenins) prepared by extraction influence of oxidation on size distribution of high-MW glutenin [S. G. Stevenson, T. Ueno, and K. R. Preston, Anal. Chem. 71 8-14 (1999)]... 

Wheat proteins contain albumins, globulins, gliadins, and glutenins, these four basic proteins depending on their varied solubility in different solvents (Figure 3.9).

The cause, as already stated, is due to the constituents of the proteins of flour. The proteins of wheat are glutenin and gliadin, which constitute the ordinary insoluble protein gluten. The soluble proteins are vegetable albumin and globulin also the proteoses, and amino acids, and amides occur in the process of fermentation. 

Some cereal proteins are quite soluble in aqueous solution (albumins, globulins) but the functional proteins—prolamins and glutelins—are difficult to solubilize. This is important because, for example, we do not want wheat gluten proteins to be soluble in a dough system. However, in order to characterize proteins, it is usually necessary to have them in solution. Because the property of solubility is such an important one with respect to cereal proteins, we will dedicate this chapter to the topic. In keeping with the objectives of the book, we will attempt to approach the subject from the most general and fundamental basis.
