Studies on Electrophoretic Pattern and Amino Acids of Buckwheat Protein

1. Amino acid compositions were determined by amino acid analyzer. Through the analysis of these samples, it was found that glutamic acid was the most abundant; glycine, aspartic acid, lysine and threonine were rich; and tryptophan and methionine were the limiting amino acid. 2. Albumins, globulins, gliadins and glutelins were extracted from the Kangwon hull, Kangwon rice buckwheat, and wheat. The relative proportions of protein fractions were 52.45 : 10.14 : 16.61 : 20.80% in Kangwon hull buckwheat, 21.10 : 13.80 : 28.40 : 36.70% in Kangwon rice buckwheat and 6.87 : 1.65 : 42.85 : 48.6% in wheat, in the order of albumins, globulins, gliadins and glutelins. 3. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) were performed to identify the subfractions of each protein fraction. The electrophoregrams of PAGE showed that the same fractions of both Kangwon hull buckwheat protein and Kangwon rice buckwheat protein had very similar electrophoretic patterns to each other respectively, but there were significant differences in the patterns between buckwheat proteins and wheat proteins.
