Recently, there is a growing interest in developing protein-enriched beverages with improved nutritional and functional properties. However, this is challenged by heat-induced aggregation and gelation of edible proteins, which limits their practical applications in high protein systems. In this study, soy protein particles (SPPs) with tunable heat stability were prepared by simply preheating soy proteins suspensions (pH 6.4 and 1% (w/v) concentration) at different temperatures and times. Results showed that heat-stabled SPPs were successfully obtained at high preheating temperatures with prolonged time. The SPPs structures were found to be highly unfolded, denatured, and compact. In addition, these particles exhibited lower viscosities and higher flow behavior index without gelation, whereas those prepared at lower preheating temperatures were found to readily gel after reheating. These results provide useful insights on how heat stable SPPs can be prepared, which extends their further application in protein-enriched beverages and relevant products.

Genome-wide identification of the Sec14 gene family and the response to salt and drought stress in soybean (Glycine max).

BMC Genomics

Background: The Sec14 domain is an ancient lipid-binding domain that evolved from yeast Sec14p and performs complex lipid-mediated regulatory functions in subcellular organelles and intracellular traffic. The Sec14 family is characterized by a highly conserved Sec14 domain, and is ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells and has diverse functions. However, the number and characteristics of Sec14 homologous genes in soybean, as well as their potential roles, remain understudied.

This study aimed to construct oleofilms containing a binary mixture of proteins (soy protein hydrolysate and gelatin) and lipids (olive oil, stearic acid, and lecithin) using various ultrasonic emulsification processes. Initially, oleogels (OG20, OG40, OG60, OG80, and OG100) were fabricated with different sonication powers (20 %-100 %), along with control (OG) without sonication. Macrostructure, FTIR, DSC, stability coefficient (57.

Soybean () is a leguminous plant with a broad range of applications, particularly in agriculture and food production, where its seed composition-especially oil and protein content-is highly valued. Improving these traits is a primary focus of soybean breeding programs. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify genetic loci linked to oil and protein content in seeds, using imputed genotype data for 180 Eurasian soybean varieties and the novel "genotypic twins" approach.

Comparing Hydrolysable and Condensed Tannins for Tannin Protein-Based Foams.

Polymers (Basel)

Tannin-based foams have gained attention as a potential bio-based alternative to conventional synthetic foams. Traditionally, namely condensed tannins (CT) have been used, leaving the potential of hydrolysable tannins (HT) largely unexplored. This study compared the performance of chestnut (HT) and quebracho (CT) in tannin-protein-based foams at different tannin ratios.
