Popis: | The 85% methanol-soluble proteins are known to specifically contribute to the production of flavor of roasted peanut. To determine the nature of the 85% methanol-soluble proteins, they were isolated from the peanut seed, and the 85% methanol-soluble (MS) and 85% methanol-insoluble (MIS) fractions were characterized using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and capillary electrophoresis. The results showed that the 85% MS fraction contained lower amounts (9-10%) of protein than the MIS fraction (15-33%). Protein content of the MIS fraction increased more significantly during seed maturation than it did in the MS fraction. Unlike the protein, free amino acids and soluble sugars levels of the MS fraction decreased significantly during seed maturation. The 85% MS fraction contained predominantly low molecular weight ( |
