Reactions of protein with phenols and quinones evaluation of amino acid modification and protein digestibility

Creator:

Wehr, Herbert Michael

Abstract:

Plant tissues contain a wide variety of phenolic compounds, frequently in high concentration. Both non-covalent association of intact and oxidized phenols and covalent linkage of oxidized phenols to protein occur. Such interactions can have important biochemical and nutritional significance. A model system approach was used to identify and quantitate amino...

Lipid-protein interactions : autoxidation studies involving freeze-dried methyl linolenate-gelatin foams

Creator:

Wehr, H. Michael and Sinnhuber, Russell O.

Abstract:

Studies involving freeze-dried methyl linolenate-gelatin foams indicate that the extent of lipid-protein interaction corresponds to the degree of autoxidation of the lipid fraction. It appears that approximately 11% of the malonaldehyde as defined by the 2-thiobarbituric acid test is firmly bound to the protein. The induction period of autoxidation is...
