Changes of structure and functional properties of rice protein in the fresh edible rice during the seed development by Dan Li, Mingjing Yao, Yang Yang, Bing Wang, Dongjie Zhang, Na Zhang

“…In this paper, the changes in structure and functional properties of proteins at five different stages, including early milky stage (EMS), middle milky stage (MMS), late milky stage (LMS), waxy ripe stage (WS) and ripening stage (RS), during the seed development were investigated. It was found that with the seed developing, the molecular weight of fresh rice protein gradually become larger while the secondary structure changed from the highest content of disordered structure at MMS to the highest content of ordered structure at RS, which affect the surface hydrophobicity and then the functional properties of proteins, including foaming properties, emulsifying properties and oil holding capacity. …”
