Molecular weights of wheat gamma2-, beta6-, alpha7-, alpha8- and alpha9-gliadins.
The molecular weights of wheat gamma2-, beta6-, alpha7-, alpha8- and alpha9-gliadins were calculated with the aid of a computer technique from sedimentation equilibrium data obtained in an ultracentrifuge equipped with photoelectric scanner. The dissociative solvents, all at pH 3.1 by addition of HCl, included 3 M urea, 0.15 M KCl; 8 M urea, 0.15 M KCl and 6 M guanidine-HCl. The minimum molecular weights for gamma2-, alpha7- and alpha9-gliadins, obtained in 6 M guanidine-HCl, were 34 600, 30 400 and 30 900, respectively. The beta6- and alpha8-gliadins gave minimum molecular weights of 33 000 and 36 900, respectively, in 3 M urea, 0.15 M KCl.
