Abstract:

Acetic-acid-soluble storage proteins from gluten of the bread wheat cv. Sprint 3 were fractionated by adsorption chromatography on 2000 A controlled-pore glass (CPG) beads, and glutenin polymers with molecular mass higher than 10(7) Da and free from monomeric gliadins were recovered. The glutenin polymers were found to consist of high-molecular-weight (HMW) and low-molecular-weight (LMW) glutenin subunits. Peptic-tryptic (PT) digests of glutenins were examined for their agglutination activity on human myelogenous leukemia K 562(S) cells, agglutination being strongly correlated with toxicity for the celiac intestine. The peptide fraction at a concentration of 1 g/L of culture medium was able to agglutinate 30% of K 562(S) cells, suggesting a moderate toxic effect. This toxicity may be accounted for by homologies in amino acid sequences between glutenin subunits and alpha/beta- and gamma-gliadins.
