The 2 S seed storage protein, sunflower albumin 8, contains an unusually high proportion of hydrophobic residues including 16 methionines in a mature protein of 103 amino acids. A structural model, based on the known structure of a related protein, has been constructed as a four-helix bundle cross-l

The influence of acylation on surface functional properties, solubility and heat-induced aggregation of the low-molecular weight basic protein fraction (napin) from rapeseed was studied. While the native protein was soluble over the whole pH-range, the exhaustively acetylated one became precipitable
A battery of precalibrated Sephadex cohtmns is described which can separate vesicle-trapped solutes from free solutes in as little as 1 hr for 20 samples. The procedure described allows measurement of solute trapping and transport by small, lipid-rich vesicles for which convenient alternate methods
