    Abstract:
    In the present study, protein-glutaminase (PG) from Chryseobacterium proteolyticum was applied to improve the processing properties of glutinous rice flour (GRF). After PG modification, the degree of deamidation of glutinous rice protein (GRP) reached 13.6% at 2.0 h, with smaller particle size and decreased zeta potential. The interaction of GRP with starch in PG-modified GRF (PM-GRF) was changed, exhibiting in protein aggregates decreasing and exposure of starch on the surface of GRF. Compared with unmodified GRF (UM-GRF), the solubility and turbidity of PM-GRF were both increased. The rheological properties reflected that the viscosity of PM-GRF paste was increased, and the freeze-thaw stability was also enhanced. Moreover, the textural characteristics showed that the hardness of PM-GRF balls remarkably reduced and the springiness increased. These results indicate that deamidation by PG could be an efficient method for improving characteristics of GRP and GRF.
