Sources, isolation and properties of protein ingredients - Storage proteins from leguminosa and oils seeds

3 important questions on Sources, isolation and properties of protein ingredients - Storage proteins from leguminosa and oils seeds

For most leguminous and oil seeds, the majority of the proteins present (on mass basis) are from 2 groups:

  1. Legumins (in soy: glycinin)
  2. Vicilins (in soy: beta-conglycinin)

What kind of structure do leguminous and oil seeds proteins have?

Globular proteins.

What is important for plant proteins?

That different non-protein compounds can come along in the extraction process and thereby influence the composition and final properties of the isolate.
