Plant proteins are biopolymers with interesting technological applications for the food industry due to their ability to interact with phenolic compounds such as anthocyanins. The 3D structure of the 7S globulin from grape seed was elucidated for the first time using a homology model. The constructed 3D model showed that grape seed 7S globulin...

Currently, the wine industry has an increasing interest in developing alternative solutions to traditional animal proteins fining agents. In this study, the impact of different protein fining agents on the turbidity, phenolic composition and color of 2-month and 12-month Syrah red wines was assessed. Wines fined with egg albumin and plant-based...

Grape seed flour by-product (GSBP) is an economic and renewable source of proteins, increasingly being explored due to interesting technological application such as colour protection in rich-anthocyanins beverages. Globulin-like proteins from GSBP were characterised by proteomic and computational studies. MALDI TOF/TOF analysis revealed the...

Recently, the search for alternative proteins endogenous to grapes to be used as wine colour protecting agents became an important research trend. In this study, the molecular interaction between the grape seed 11S globulin from winemaking by-product and malvidin-3-O-glucoside was investigated by fluorescence, differential colorimetry and...
