Rye (Secale cereale) is a grass grown extensively as a grain, a cover crop and a forage crop. It is grown principally in an area from Eastern and Northern Europe into Russia. It is much more tolerant of cold weather and poor soil than other cereals, making it useful in those regions; its vigorous growth suppresses weeds and provides abundant forage for animals early in the yea
Milled from rye kernels, a cousin of wheat, rye flour has a lower protein content than standard all-purpose flour. Less gluten means a denser loaf; rye flour also adds a distinctive, nutty taste ...
The types of grains that contain gluten include all species of wheat (common wheat, durum, spelt, khorasan, emmer and einkorn), and barley, rye, and some cultivars of oat; moreover, cross hybrids of any of these cereal grains also contain gluten, e.g. triticale. [3] [4] Gluten makes up 75–85% of the total protein in bread wheat. [5]
The protein content is higher than that of wheat, although the glutenin fraction is less. The grain has also been stated to have higher levels of lysine than wheat. [4] Acceptance would require the milling industry to adapt to triticale, as the milling techniques employed for wheat are unsuited to triticale. [5]
Buckwheat. Despite its name, buckwheat doesn’t contain any wheat at all, making it a popular grain in gluten-free diets. While buckwheat groats, or kernels, contain a good amount of protein ...
Secalin is a prolamin glycoprotein found in the grain rye, Secale cereale. [1] [2]Secalin is one of the forms of gluten proteins that people with coeliac disease cannot tolerate, and thus rye should be avoided by people with this disease.

Prolamins are a group of plant storage proteins having a high proline amino acid content. They are found in plants, mainly in the seeds of cereal grains such as wheat , barley , rye , corn , sorghum , and oats . They are characterised by a high glutamine and proline content, and have poor solubility in water. They solubilise best in strong ...
