Popis: The repetitive sequence of glutenin plays an important role in dough rheology; however, its interaction with wheat protein disulfide isomerase (wPDI) remains unclear. In this study, the conformations of wild type glutenin repetitive sequence (WRS) from the high molecular weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) 1Dx5, an artificially designed glutenin repetitive sequence (DRS) of which the amino acid composition is the same but the primary structure is different, and wPDI under different redox states were simulated. The molecular interactions between the aforementioned repetitive sequences with wPDI under different redox states were further investigated. The results indicated that the repetitive sequences bind to the b and b′ domains of an “open”, oxidized wPDI (wPDIO) which serves as the acceptor state of substrate. The repetitive sequence is partially folded (compressed) in wPDIO, and is further folded in the thermodynamically favored, subsequent conformational transition of wPDIO to reduced wPDI (wPDIR). Compared with the artificially designed one, the naturally designed repetitive sequence is better recognized and more intensively folded by wPDI for its later unfold as the molecular basis of dough extension.
