Identification of Intact High Molecular Weight Glutenin Subunits from the Wheat Proteome Using Combined Liquid Chromatography-Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

The present paper describes a method for the identification of intact high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS), the quality determining proteins from the wheat storage proteome. The method includes isolation of HMW-GS from wheat flour, further separation of HMW-GS by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), and their subsequent molecular identification with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry using a quadrupole-time-of-flight mass analyzer. For HMW-GS isolation, wheat proteins were reduced and extracted from flour with 50% 1-propanol containing 1% dithiothreitol. HMW-GS were then selectively precipitated from the protein mixture by adjusting the 1-propanol concentration to 60%. The composition of the precipitated proteins was first evaluated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with Coomassie staining and RP-HPLC with ultraviolet detection. Besides HMW-GS (≥65%), the isolated proteins mainly contained ω5-gliadins. Secondly, the isolated protein fraction was analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Optimal chromatographic separation of HMW-GS from the other proteins in the isolated fraction was obtained when the mobile phase contained 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid as ion-pairing agent. Individual HMW-GS were then identified by determining their molecular masses from the high-resolution mass spectra and comparing these with theoretical masses calculated from amino acid sequences. Using formic acid instead of trifluoroacetic acid in the mobile phase increased protein peak intensities in the base peak mass chromatogram. This allowed the detection of even traces of other wheat proteins than HMW-GS in the isolated fraction, but the chromatographic separation was inferior with a major overlap between the elution ranges of HMW-GS and ω-gliadins. Overall, the described method allows a rapid assessment of wheat quality through the direct determination of the HMW-GS composition and offers a basis for further top-down proteomics of individual HMW-GS and the entire wheat glutenin fraction.     

Development of genetically modified wheat to assess its dough functional properties

End-use functionality of bread wheat depends mainly on the protein content, the presence of particular subunits of high and low molecular weight glutenin, the ratio of high molecular weight to low molecular weight glutenin subunits, and the ratio of glutenin to gliadin. The exact contribution of each of these factors to end-use functionality is still largely unknown. Transgenic plants can allow these factors to be studied within a particular background thus contributing to our understanding of end-use functionality. Two Canadian wheat lines, one of them containing high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) coded by all three Glu-1 loci and one line null at all three loci were assessed for dough rheological properties and bread and tortilla-making properties. Protein composition of the flours were characterized by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, size exclusion high performance liquid chromatography, and sedimentation test. Proteins in the samples were fractionated and the proportions of monomeric proteins, soluble glutenin, and insoluble glutenin were quantified. Functionality of the flours were characterized by small-scale methods such as the 2 g mixograph, 10 g farinograph, and micro-extension testing. End-use quality was evaluated by small-scale bread and tortilla production. Mixograph development time and mixograph peak height were much higher for the lines containing HMW-GS. The lines null for HMW-GS showed no resistance to extension. Lines null for HMW-GS produced 'brick'-like bread. Tortilla prepared from the null lines had poor rollability and lower puncture force. The results showed very strong dependencies of quality on the presence of HMW-GS.

High molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) have been proved to be mostly correlated with the processing quality of common wheat (Triticum aestivum). But wheat cultivars have limited number of high quality HMW-GS. However, novel HMW-GS were found to be present in many wheat asymmetric somatic hybrid introgression lines of common wheat/Agropyron elongatum.

Molecular Mechanisms of HMW Glutenin Subunits from 1Sl Genome of Aegilops longissima Positively Affecting Wheat Breadmaking Quality

A wheat cultivar “Chinese Spring” chromosome substitution line CS-1S^l(1B), in which the 1B chromosome was substituted by 1S^l from Aegilops longissima, was developed and found to possess superior dough and breadmaking quality. The molecular mechanism of its super quality conformation is studied in the aspects of high molecular glutenin genes, protein accumulation patterns, glutenin polymeric proteins, protein bodies, starch granules, and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and PDI-like protein expressions. Results showed that the introduced HMW-GS 1S^l×2.3* and 1S^ly16* in the substitution line possesses long repetitive domain, making both be larger than any known x- and y-type subunits from B genome. The introduced subunit genes were also found to have a higher level of mRNA expressions during grain development, resulting in more HMW-GS accumulation in the mature grains. A higher abundance of PDI and PDI-like proteins was observed which possess a known function of assisting disulfide bond formation. Larger HMW-GS deposited in protein bodies were also found in the substitution line. The CS substitution line is expected to be highly valuable in wheat quality improvement since the novel HMW-GS are located on chromosome 1S^l, making it possible to combine with the known superior D×5+Dy10 subunits encoded by Glu-D1 for developing high quality bread wheat.

Functional properties of flours from field grown transgenic wheat lines expressing the HMW glutenin subunit 1Ax1 and 1Dx5 genes

The high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) of wheat are major determinants of the viscoelastic properties of gluten and dough. The bread making quality of field grown transgenic lines of bread wheat expressing the HMW-GS 1Ax1 or 1Dx5 genes were evaluated over a two year period. Subunit 1Ax1 represented about 29% and 48% of the total HMW-GS in lines 1-2 and 2-2, respectively, while subunit 1Dx5 represented 65.4% and 62% of the total HMW-GS in transgenic lines 6-2 and 9, respectively. The expression of subunits 1Ax1 or 1Dx5 in transgenic wheat led to corresponding decreases in the proportions of endogenous HMW-GS. HMW-GS 1Ax1 and 1Dx5 had contrasting effects on dough quality determined by the Alveograph and sedimentation test. Subunit 1Ax1 increased the tenacity (P), extensibility (L), deformation work (W), and sedimentation value, with the increase being related to the level of expression. In contrast, subunit 1Dx5 led to a smaller increment in the tenacity (P), but to drastic decrease in both extensibility (L), deformation work (W), and the sedimentation value. Expression of subunit 1Ax1 in transgenic wheat resulted in lines with improved rheological properties whereas the lines expressing subunit 1Dx5 resulted in unsuitable breadmaking-related characteristics.
