Abstract
This review attempts to consolidate the information on the physicochemical properties of proteins from groundnut, soybean, sesame seed, mustard seed, rapeseed, sunflower seed, cottonseed, and other oilseeds. It deals with the extraction and characterization of the oilseed proteins and describes the methods for isolation of the various protein fractions and determination of their physicochemical characteristics. Also discussed are the subunit composition of the oligomeric proteins, their hydrodynamic properties, and the effect of denaturants on these proteins. The similarity in the properties of the proteins from various oilseed materials is discussed. The review article aims to indicate the gaps in our knowledge about the physicochemical properties of oilseed proteins and suggests areas for future investigation.
