In the wheat seed, the two main components of gluten are gliadins and glutenins. Both are not water-soluble.

Gluten usually refers to a combination of prolamin and glutelin proteins; in wheat it consists of gliadin and glutenin.

• Prolamins are a group of plant storage proteins (a high proline amino acid content). High glutamine and proline content, poor solubility in water.
  • Gliadin (a type of prolamin) is a class of proteins present in wheat etc. Gliadins are essential for giving bread the ability to rise. Are soluble in 70% ethanol. There are 3 main types of gliadin. Gliadins are intrinsically disordered proteins (continously altering shapes), but the average shape is an ellipse with an tadpole like structure with hydrophobic core and disordered tail. Gliadins are monomeric molecules in the cell: the gliadins are unable to form polymers because its cysteines form intra-chain disulphide bonds are synthesis due to hydrophobic interactions. However, gliadins are capable to aggregate into larger oligomers and interact with other other gluten proteins (due to large hydrophobic sections, poly-Q and repetative sequencies). Gliadins contribute to the extensibility. Gliadins are mainly monomeric proteins with molecular weights (MWs) around 28,000-55,000. Gliadins contain four subfamilies, α/β-, γ-, δ- and ω-gliadins. Gli-A1, -B1, -D1, Gli-A2, -B2, -D2. Gliadins may act as plasticizer to modify the extensibility of gluten and dough.

• glutelin is a class of prolamin proteins. Glutelins are rich in hydrophobic amino acids (phenylalanine, valine, tyrosine, proline and leucine) [wikipedia].
  • Glutenin is major protein within wheat flour (47% of total proteins). Thus, it is the most common glutelin, barley and rye has different glutelin proteins. The glutenins are protein aggregates. Glutenin forms extended polymer networks due to disulphide bonds. Is thought to be largely responsible for the elastic properties of gluten, and hence, doughs (elastomeric proteins: the glutenin network can withstand significant deformations without breaking, and return to the original conformation when the stress is removed). There are of two different types of glutenins, named low (LMW; MW=32,000-35,000; Glu-A3, Glu-B3 and Glu-D3) and high molecular weight (HMW; MW=67,000-88,000) subunits. Each gluten protein type consists or two or three different structural domains; one of them contains unique repetitive sequences rich in glutamine and proline. Native glutenins are composed of a backbone formed by HMW subunit polymers and of LMW subunit polymers branched off from HMW subunits. The glutenins can be further divided into two subfamilies: HMW and LMW.

• three groups of proteins that have major impacts on wheat quality and utilization: the gluten proteins which determine dough viscoelasticity but also trigger celiac disease in susceptible individuals, the puroindolines which are major determinants of grain texture and the amylase/trypsin inhibitors which are food and respiratory allergens
• a lack of detailed understanding of the structure:function relationships of wheat proteins
• History
  • 1745 by Jacopo Beccari, University of Bologna
  • Taddei who separated gluten into fractions that were soluble (gliadins) or insoluble (zymon, later called glutenin) in alcohol.
• For example, S. Bromilow, Gethings, Buckley, et al. assembled a curated database of 630 gluten protein sequences from over 24,000 gluten‐related sequences in the UniProt database. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5479479/
• GLUTEN PROTEINS AND PROCESSING QUALITY
  • The gluten protein fraction, with the main purpose being to understand the basis for the unique biophysical properties (viscosity combined with extensibility and elasticity) of wheat dough.
  • Gluten is a complex mixture, with between 50 and 100 individual proteins being separated by two‐dimensional electrophoresis: into two groups:
    • the monomeric gliadins: α‐type gliadins, γ‐gliadins, and ω‐gliadins.
    • polymeric glutenins (glutelins): HMW‐GS and LMW‐GS,
  • When wheat flour is mixed with water to form dough the gluten proteins form a continuous three‐dimensional network which is stabilized by both covalent and noncovalent forces.
  • The glutenin polymers are stabilized by covalent interchain disulfide bonds
  • The glutenin polymers vary in molecular mass from oligomers of mass 100,000 to 150,000 to polymers with masses up to at least 1–2 million with the HMW‐GS being concentrated in high molecular mass polymers
  • Furthermore, larger “aggregates” also occur which comprise glutenin polymers and gliadins. These are stabilized by noncovalent forces, with hydrogen bonds being the most important
  • glutenin macropolymer
  • Viscosity may result from noncovalent bonding between monomers and polymers, principally hydrogen bonding between glutamine residues which account for between about 20% and 50% of the total amino acids of individual gluten proteins. These glutamine residues are regularly arranged in the protein repetitive domains which may allow the formation of “glutamine zips,”
  • Dough extensibility may result from slippage between the noncovalently bound gliadins and glutenin polymers when force is applied.
  • The molecular basis for elasticity is less well understood but is almost certainly more complex.
  • HMW‐GS molecules are intrinsically elastic due to the formation of a loose “β‐spiral” super‐secondary structure which is based on regularly repeated β‐reverse turns
  • Belton has suggested that hydrogen bonding between adjacent proteins also contributes to elasticity. dry gluten is disordered but that regular hydrogen‐bonded structures are formed on hydration by orientation of the β‐turns in adjacent β‐spirals to form structures resembling “interchain” β‐sheet. Further hydration results in the replacement of some of the interchain hydrogen bonds with water, resulting in an equilibrium between aligned regions (trains) and loop regions. Mechanical deformation of this structure will initially extend the loops but eventually also separate the train regions. .. Finally, disulfide bonds may also contribute, as mechanical stress will result in deformation and a return to the undeformed structure on release. Hence, elasticity will be affected by differences in the sequences of the glutamine‐rich repetitive domains of the gluten proteins as well as the distributions of cysteine residues and their ability to form interchain disulfide bonds.

  • which may result in more highly cross‐linked, and hence more elastic, polymers.
  • more subtle differences in the amino acid sequences of HMW‐GS also contribute, for example, by affecting the formation of noncovalent hydrogen bonds (and hence “train” regions in hydrated gluten as discussed above).
  • The addition of water and mixing brings the gluten matrices in the individual cells together to form a network. may have effects on the covalent structures and noncovalent interactions of glutenin polymers

• The glutenin fraction represents about half of the total gluten proteins and consists of polymers stabilised by inter-chain disulphide bonds.
• HMW subunits are coded by six genes in wheat: Glu-1 loci, chromosomes 1A (Glu-A1), 1B (Glu-B1) and 1D (Glu-D1)
• Glu-1: x type (masses 80,000-100,000) and y-type (masses 60,000-80,000)
• LMW-GS's are about 65-70% of the total glutenin fraction. They are more diverse than HMWs.
• Glutenin polymers:
  • not soluble in the aqueous media
  • interact strongly with other glutenin polymers and gliadins by non-covalent forces, notably hydrogen bonds
  • Masses from(?) 2x10⁶ up to 10⁸
  • Large gluten polymers may also be sheared by vigorous stirring (should be avoided).
• Stabilization of glutenin polymers
  • Glutenin polymers are stabilised by interchain disulphide bonds
  • HMW-GS:HMW-GS, LMW-GS:LMW-GS, HMW-GS:LMW-GS bonds
  • Glutenin polymers associate with each other and with gliadins by non-covalent forces, in addition.
  • The behaviour of dough and gluten on heating: will “melt” hydrogen bonds but strengthen hydrophobic interactions.
• Models of glutenin structure
  • The ratio of HMW:LMW subunits in total glutenin is about 1:4
  • Linear Glutenin Hypothesis” of Ewart, 1977: glutenin consists of linear chains (concatenations) of glutenin molecules joined by disulphide bonds.
  • Bietz and Wall, 1980: the HMW subunits forms linear chains, but the LMW subunits forms oligomers of mass 100,000 to 150,000. The oligomers and individual LMW subunits could be linked to the HMW subunit concatenates by disulphide bonds.
  • Graveland et al., 1985
  • HMW subunits form the backbone of glutenin with LMW subunits forming side branches.
  • The HMW subunit polymers also form disulphide bonds with LMW subunits while gliadins interact by non-covalent forces.
  • We know much less about the organisation of LMW subunits in glutenin polymers.
  • LMW subunits (B, C and D-type)
  • Our current knowledge can therefore be summarised as follows:
    1. HMW subunits may form head-to-tail concatenates which form the backbone of large glutenin polymers.
    2. Individual LMW subunits and/or LMW subunit oligomers and polymers may be attached to this backbone by interchain disulphide bonds
    3. Soluble polymers are enriched in chain-terminating C-type and D-type LMW subunits.
    4. Smaller polymers and oligomers comprising only LMW subunits also occur.
• Glutenin structure and gluten elasticity
  • HMW subunits forms a loose β-spiral structure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_helix
  • Glutamine zips contributes to gluten elascticity
  • Hydrogen bond on hydration by orientation of the β-turns vs dry gluten
  • Further hydration results in the replacement of some of the interchain hydrogen bonds with hydrogen bonds with water, resulting in an equilibrium between aligned regions (trains) and loop regions. This is suggested to contribute to elasticity as mechanical deformation will lead to disruption
• Glutenin macropolymer GMP
  • The gluten network in dough is not a continuous covalently linked polymer but consists of many polymers and monomers interacting by non-covalent forces.
  • depolymerisation and repolymerisation.

• Storage proteins in wheat are collectively referred to as gluten, but gluten is actually an aggregate formed from two major types of protein: gliadin and glutenin.
• The gluten in dough is created from these proteins by mixing wheat grain flour and water.
• Gliadins and glutenins make up approximately 30% and 50%, respectively, of the total protein in wheat grain
• gliadin contributes to the flow properties, while glutenin contributes to its elasticity and strength.
• Glutenin is composed of macropolymers. These macropolymers intermingle randomly with individual particles of gliadins to form the aggregate, which is held together with non-covalent interactions.
• Gluten proteins show extensive polymorphism.
• Gliadins
  • large families of proteins with similar amino acid sequences: α-, β-, γ-, and ω based on their electrophoretic mobility in two-dimensional electrophoresis .
  • Cells of bread wheat are hexaploid and composed of genomes A, B, and D.
  • proteins that are soluble in aqueous alcohols, but insoluble in water or neutral salt solutions. Some researchers have reported that a considerable amount of gluten protein could be extracted with water from gluten to which NaCl had been added. For example, when gluten was homogenized in 1 M NaCl and repeatedly washed with pure water, both gliadin and glutenin could be extracted with distilled water. Why can gliadins only be extracted from salt-treated dough? It may be that interactions between ions, proteins and water are relevant to this question. Intramolecular disulfide bonds are essential for the solubility of gliadin in pure water.

• Einhof (1805): gluten could be separated into two fractions, based on the extractability of gliadin in (70%) aqueous ethanol.
• a critical balance between the complementary roles of the gliadin and glutenin components
• the gluten-forming proteins of the grain appear to serve no other role than to provide a reserve of amino acids for the developing seedling when germination occurs (storage proteins, providing a source of amino acids for the germinating grain.)
• Protein synthesis occurs on the ribosomes (attached to the endoplasmic reticulum) by the translation of the RNA nucleotide sequence, which in turn has been derived (transcribed) from the DNA sequence of the relevant genes on the chromosomes.
• Peptide bonds are formed between appropriate amino acid
• The process of disulfide-bond formation (degree of polymerization) continues in the storage proteins during the ripening (desiccation) of the grain
• Disulfide-bond formation again accelerates during the heat treatment of processing e.g., baking or extrusion (a process by which a set of ingredients are forced through an opening in a plate, and is then cut by blades.); see Fig 2.
• DOUGH FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT
  • Three components of dough: flour [flour is starch, protein and water], water and mixing. Other (yeast, salt, sugar, fat, etc) is not considered.
  • Examination of flour under a microscope reveals that it varies widely in particle shape and size.
  • Dough formation begins when water comes into contact with flour.
  • Flour particle interact (stick together) to form a cohesive dough.
    1. Dough mixing blends the ingredients into a homogeneous mass (at the super-molecular

level of structure)

• • 1. Flour particles absorb water at a rate and amount depending on their water-binding capacity and the amount of water added
    2. Mixing aids hydration by exposing new dry surfaces on flour particles for interaction with water.
    3. Changes occur at the molecular level including interaction of gliadin and

glutenin and re-orientation of glutenin via S-S interchange

• • As mixing continues, glutenin interacts with gliadin to form gluten, the viscoelastic matrix of the dough
  • The rate of interaction depends on the specific surface area of the glutenin
  • recording dough consistency with a Farinograph or a Mixograph.
  • Best baking results are obtained with doughs that have been mixed just past the maximum in the consistency curve.
    1. the hydrogen bonds: much weaker than covalent bonds but, because of the large numbers that act cooperatively, they contribute significantly to the structure of the dough. Their ability to interchange under stress and thereby facilitate re-orientation of gluten proteins.
    2. the hydrophobic interactions: result from the interactions of non-polar groups in

the presence of water. Functionality is similar to that of hydrogen bonds but the overall effect is much smaller. Their energy increases with increasing temperature; this could result in increased stability during baking.

• • 1. disulfide bonds (S-S): form strong cross-links within and between polypeptide chains, thereby stabilizing hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. Can be mobilized through disulfide-interchange reaction. The total number of S-S bonds does not change; only their location in the glutenin molecule is altered.
    2. (possibly) crosslinks involving dityrosine
• Gluten Composition
  • Wheat endosperm (flour) contains 10-13% protein, which is highly heterogeneous in composition and in molecular weight.
  • The first comprehensive fractionation of wheat-flour proteins was carried out by Osborne (1924) using sequential extraction by water, salt solution, and 70% ethanol solution. Considerable amounts of gliadin remains in the residue after extraction with 70% ethanol solution. Solved by 50% propan-1-ol to extract the gliadins.
• Gluten proteins are those that impart unique viscoelastic properties of dough
• Gliadin proteins are the gluten proteins that exist in an extract of flour as monomeric polypeptides, with virtually all disulfide bonds being intra-polypeptide.
• The glutenin proteins are polymeric, having disulfide bonds joining between

individual polypeptides of glutenin (see chaps 5-7).

• gliadins have molecular sizes smaller than glutenin proteins
• Gliadin polypeptides
  • The gliadin polypeptides occur in groups (“blocks”), based on each of the several sets of tightly linked genes coding for the gliadin polypeptides. The main blocks of gliadin genes are located on the short arms of Group-1 and Group-6 chromosomes (referred to as the Gli-1 and Gli-2 loci, respectively) for all three wheat genomes (A, B and D)
• The HMW polypeptides of glutenin, The LMW polypeptides of glutenin
• BALANCING DOUGH PROPERTIES
  • for different types of breads, and even for different type of processing technologies, a diversity of dough- strength and extensibility values may provide the optimum balances needed in each case
• THE PROTEIN BALANCE: GLIADIN-GLUTENIN AND MORE
  • three HMW subunits of glutenin, the three LMW subunits and six gliadin-coding loci.
  • protein content, the ratio of polymeric to monomeric protein, the ratio of HMW to LMW glutenin subunits, and the proportions of x- and y-type HMW glutenin subunits.
  • The polymeric glutenin is mostly responsible for the elasticity of the dough, whereas the monomeric gliadins are the extensibility-related characters in the system. The

ratio of polymeric to monomeric proteins is directly related to the balance of dough strength and extensibility of the dough.

• • Apart from the amount of protein in flour, probably the most important characteristic of gluten that determines the mixing time of dough is the size distribution of the gluten proteins
  • The glutenin polymers are formed from the glutenin

subunits by the formation of disulfide bonds

• • the polymer structure is still not well understood.
  • oxidants and reductants: it is possible to effectively destroy dough functionality with a reductant (dithiothreitol), and then to recover functionality by subsequent oxidation
• Polymer-chemistry considerations
  • Polymer science indicates the importance of the size distribution for such molecules as a critical principle governing the physical properties of synthetic polymer: For example, molecules below a certain size limit (threshold level) do not contribute to the strength properties of a polymer composite.
  • Gluten proteins have two levels of aggregation before starting to form the gluten polymer. At the first level HMW- and LMW-subunits of glutenin form covalent polymers and on

the second level, larger aggregates, called “glutenin macropolymers”

• • During mixing, the size of protein aggregates decreases
