Abstract excerpt
Oleosins are abundant structural proteins on the surface of intracellular oil bodies in seeds. In many maize (Zea mays L.) inbreds, there are three oleosins, OLE18, OLE17, and OLE16, termed according to their apparent molecular weight, which are present in the proportional amounts of about 1:1:2 in isolated oil bodies. In some inbreds, OLE18 and OLE17 occur as molecular weight variants with a molecular weight...
