Abstract
The effects of thermostable ice structuring proteins (TSISPs) extracted from Chinese privet (Ligustrum vulgare) leaves on water molecular state, dehydration of gluten proteins, secondary structure of proteins, glutenin subunit of glutenin macropolymer (GMP) and rheological properties of gluten doughs during frozen storage were investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared reflectance (ATR-FTIR), reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and dynamic rheometry. After frozen storage for 5 weeks, the control sample showed dehydration of gluten proteins and mobility of water molecules in gluten dough increased, significantly indicating ice formation and water redistribution. Secondary structure of gluten proteins changed significantly, α-helix decreased and β-sheet increased. Glutenin subunits depolymerized, indicated by the decrease in high molecular weight glutenins/low molecular weight-glutenins (HMW/LMW) ratio. The decrease in elastic moduli (G′) and viscous moduli (G′') showed the deterioration of rheological properties of gluten dough. The addition of TSISPs inhibited the dehydration of gluten proteins, decrease in α-helix, increase in β-sheet and HMW/LMW ratio, resulting in improved rheological properties of gluten dough.
