ELECTRICAL CHARGES
Some

individual amino acid residues in a


protein have the potential to be charged
electrically in different ways, depending on
the pH of the medium in which the protein is
found.
The individual protein molecules are said to
be amphoteric, because they have the
potential to function as either acid or a base,
depending on the pH.
Isoelectric point: when the number of
positive and negative charges are equal.
Protein has minimum solubility at the
isoelectric point.

PROTEIN DENATURATION
Denaturation

of proteins involves the


disruption and possible destruction of both
the secondary and tertiary structures.
Since denaturation reactions are not
strong enough to break the peptide bonds,
the primary structure (sequence of amino
acids) remains the same after a
denaturation process.
Denaturation disrupts the normal alphahelix and beta sheets in a protein and
uncoils it into a random shape.
The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

PROTEIN DENATURATION
Denaturation

occurs because the bonding


interactions responsible for the secondary
structure (hydrogen bonds to amides) and
tertiary structure are disrupted.
In tertiary structure there are four types of
bonding interactions between "side chains"
including: hydrogen bonding, salt bridges,
disulfide bonds, and non-polar hydrophobic
interactions, which may be disrupted.
Therefore, a variety of reagents and
conditions can cause denaturation.
The most common observation in the
denaturation process is the precipitation or
coagulation of the protein.
The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

PROTEIN DENATURATION
Unfolding

of protein structure (due to H


bonds breaking) without disrupting protein
covalent bonds.
Functional properties of protein will change
during denaturation (e.g. enzyme function
will be stopped; solubility in water will
decrease).
Example:
Thermal processing denatures the meat
protein actin, myosin and myoglobin.
Cooking egg denatures egg white
proteins including ovalbumin

PROTEIN DENATURATION
Effect

of Alcohol
Hydrogen bonding occurs between amide
groups in the secondary protein structure.
Hydrogen bonding between "side chains"
occurs in tertiary protein structure in a variety
of amino acid combinations. All of these are
disrupted by the addition of another alcohol.
Alcohol denatures proteins by disrupting the
side chain intramolecular hydrogen bonding.
New hydrogen bonds are formed instead
between the new alcohol molecule and the
protein side chains.

The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

PROTEIN DENATURATION
Effect

of Acids and Bases


Salt bridges result from the
neutralization of an acid and amine
on side chains.
The final interaction is ionic between
the positive ammonium group and
the negative acid group.
Any combination of the various
acidic or amine amino acid side
chains will have this effect.

The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

PROTEIN DENATURATION
Effect

of Acids and Bases


Acids and bases disrupt salt bridges
held together by ionic charges. A type
of double replacement reaction occurs
where the positive and negative ions in
the salt change partners with the
positive and negative ions in the new
acid or base added.
This reaction occurs in the digestive
system, when the acidic gastric juices
cause the curdling (coagulating) of
milk.

EMULSIFICATION
Since

protein molecules contain


both hydrolytic and hydrophobic
characteristics, proteins can
stabilize emulsions by acting at
the oil-water interface.
This functional property is
important in the formation of
many common food products,
such as salad dressings, sauces,
frankfurters, and sausages.
Foods, such as meat tissue, milk,
eggs, and soy contain proteins
that can be isolated as
emulsifiers.
The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

PROTEIN GELATION
Proteins

can form a well-ordered gel


matrix by balancing protein-protein and
protein-solvent interactions in food
products.

These

gel matrices can hold water, fat,


and other food ingredients to produce
various food products, including bread
dough, communited meat products,
gelatin desserts, tofu, and yoghurt.

The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

Gelation Mechanism of
Protein

The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

WATER HOLDING CAPACITY


The

ability of a protein molecule to bind


water has to do with the presence of
hydrophylic and charged groups in its
structure. This property is called waterholding capacity of protein
Example: meat retains water during
application of external forces such as
cutting, heating, grinding, and pressing.
Affected by: pH, salt, and temperature.

The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

WATER HOLDING CAPACITY

When the negative and positive charges on a protein equal to


each other, protein : protein interactions are at maximum.

When the protein is not electrically neutral, these interactions


lessen, allowing for greater water: protein associations.

By increasing salt concentration, more Na+ and Cl- ions are


available to bind the charged groups on protein fiber
molecules. This reduces the protein fiber interactions with
each other in favor of increase protein fiber : water
associations.

As temperature increases to 80oC, water binding increases in


proteins that form thermally induced gels, because gelations
traps water inside a three-dimensional gel network in addition
to creating gel surface binding of water molecules.
The First Food Technology Undergraduate Program Outside of North America Approved by the Institute of Food

PROTEIN FUNCTIONALITY:
FAT BINDING PROPERTIES

Hydrophobic proteins effectively lower surface


tension and bind many lipophilic materials, such
as lipids, emulsifiers, and flavor materials.
The capacity of protein to bind fat is important
in the production of meat extenders and
replacers, in which the absorption of fat by
proteins enhances flavor retention and
improves mouthfeel.
Fat is absorbed through physical entrapment.
Fat absorption can be increased if the protein is
modified chemically to increase its bulk density.

PROTEIN HYDROLYSIS

Protein molecules may undergo hydrolysis


to form shorter chains.
The reaction usually is the result of
enzymatic action by peptidases, but
sometimes collagen is cleaved by acid
hydrolysis.
The result if cleavage of the peptide bond
and uptake of a molecule of water
The shorter chains resulting from hydrolysis
show increased solubility and decreased
ability to thicken food products.
