We evaluated the effect of heat-moisture treatment (HMT) on the main chemical components, physical properties, and enzyme activities of two types of brown rice flour: high-amylose Koshinokaori and normal-quality Koshiibuki. Five different HMTs using brown rice (moisture content was 12.0%) were assessed: 0.

On the basis of cDNA sequences, we found that the calli of rice encodes an amino acid sequence that shares 56% and 89% identity, respectively, with oryzacystatin-I and oryzacystatin-II. This sequence differs from that of oryzacystatin-II in the N-terminal region (Gln(7)-Ala(19) in the oryzacystatin-III numbering), and this region contained a glycine residue (Gly(14)), which is evolutionarily conserved in the cystatin superfamily. We named this novel protein oryzacystatin-III.
