Summary: | The role of lipid-binding proteins from wheat seed (puroindolines) on the breadmaking properties of wheat flour was investigated by determining the relationship between breadmaking quality and puroindoline content in samples of 32 wheat cultivars. An inverse relationship was mainly explained by the link between hardness and puroindoline contents. This link is in agreement with previous results which have shown a close structural identity between basic friabilins and puroindolines. Next, the effect of puroindolines in breadmaking was investigated by performing reconstitution experiments with two puroindoline-free hard cultivars of opposite quality (Florence Aurore and Ecrin) as indicated in the screened wheat sample. Addition of 0.1% puroindolines to these flours drastically modified both the rheological properties of doughs and the structure of the bread crumb. Puroindolines are essential to the foaming properties of dough liquor, and a close relationship was found between the fine grain crumb provided by reconstituted flours with puroindolines and the fine structure of corresponding dough liquor foams. The effect of puroindolines on bread volume was mainly related to the rheological properties of wheat doughs |
