The complexation of rice glutelin fibrils (RGFs) with cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) at acidic condition was investigated. The RGFs at pH 3.5 had a greatest protective effect on the thermal stability of C3G. The binding of C3G for RGFs was exothermic and driven by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. The RGFs exhibited a stronger binding interaction with C3G than rice glutelin (RG), resulting from the exposure of hydrophobic groups and positive charges on the fibrils surface, and thus RGFs exhibited better protective effect on C3G. The interaction with C3G resulted in the rearrangement of polypeptide chain, thereby reducing the β-sheet content. The larger aggregates were observed in RG/RGFs-C3G complexes due to protein-polyphenols aggregation. It was noteworthy that the pre-formed RGFs were restructured into entangled aggregates due to the interaction. This study proposed a novel protein fibril to protect anthocyanins, expanding the application of anthocyanins as stable and functional ingredients in acidic food systems.

Anions have more pronounced effect on the aggregation power of proteins than cations. Herein, the effect of different types of anions on rice glutelin (RG) based fibrils formation was investigated. The fibrils yield and growth rate of RG were enhanced with various anions, due to the specific ions effect and intermolecular interaction.

Quinoa flour due to its nutritional and sensory characteristics could be used as an ingredient to improve the nutritional and technological properties of gluten-free bread. Furthermore, the application of hydrothermal processes such as extrusion can enhance their native properties. Hence, our objective was to evaluate how the incorporation of extruded quinoa flours (EQFs) affects the technological, sensory and nutritional quality of gluten-free bread.

The effect of distribution behaviors of rice glutelin amyloid fibril aggregates (RAFA) on the structures and digestible process of wheat starch was investigated, and the interaction was revealed by molecular dynamics simulations. Rice glutelin (RG)/RAFA enhanced the long-range ordered structure of starch, and the relative crystallinity of gelatinized RAFA-wheat starch reached 14.35 %.
