Wheat grain (Triticum aestivum) comprising an embryo and starch, wherein the embryo comprises two identical alleles of an SBEIIa-A gene, two identical alleles of an SBEIIa-B gene and two identical alleles of an SBEIIa-D gene, wherein each of the SBEIIa genes gives rise to an amount of protein (w/w) or a protein having SBEIIa activity which is lower than the corresponding wild-type gene, and at least one of said genes comprises a point mutation, wherein the starch comprises amylose such that the grain has an amylose content of at least 50% (w/w) as a proportion of the extractable starch of the grain.

Processes and systems for commercial scale milling of wheat are disclosed. Processes include multiple tempering steps of controlled duration and cubing of the wheat kernel between two tempering steps. The cubing between the tempering breaks the kernels, or stresses the kernels, in a manner that enables a high degree of separation of the bran and endosperm early in the flour production process. An embodiment includes tempering for a first period between hour and 2 hours, cubing in a roll crusher with longitudinal corrugations on one roll and circumferential corrugations on a second roll, removing fines from the cubed kernels, and further tempering of the cubed kernels for a period between hour and 2 hours.

The invention is a mill or rolling mill for processing cereals, granular materials, mixtures of cereals and similar products, comprising at least one pair of parallel cylinders (C, C″) positioned side by side, wherein each cylinder (C, C″) of each pair is provided with a torque motor that in turn is mounted or assembled directly on the shaft of the respective cylinder (C, C″), and at least one control circuit (Z) suited to select which one of said two cylinders (C, C″) of each pair rotates faster.

Methods for producing a purified wheat embryo product are disclosed. In one embodiment, producing a purified wheat embryo product includes the steps of: accelerating a plurality of wheat berries toward an impact surface, impacting each of the plurality of wheat berries against the impact surface, dislodging at least some of the wheat embryos from the wheat berries in response to the impacting step such that the dislodged embryos are intact, and separating the dislodged wheat embryos from the bran and the endosperm to produce an intermediate purified wheat embryo product.

The present disclosure provides antibody cytokine engrafted proteins that bind to and stimulate intracellular signaling through a high affinity interleukin receptor. The antibody cytokine engrafted proteins find use in enhancing anti-inflammatory cell responses, and reducing pro-inflammatory effects in the treatment, amelioration and prevention of immune related disorders such as Type 1 Diabetes.
