The interactions between corn amylose (CA) and Moringa oleifera seed salt-soluble protein (MOSP) were explored to improve the gel properties of MOSP. With increasing CA content, the MOSP-CA gel network structure was improved but the size of the gel porosity decreased firstly and then increased; the water holding retention (WHR) of MOSP-CA was decreased from approximately 94 % to 85.43 ± 2.54 %. The MOSP-CA-2.5 gel exhibited the best water holding stability (WHS), with a value of 37.1 ± 0.33 %. The MOSP-CA gel hardness increased with CA concentration, and MOSP-CA-2.5 showed relatively optimal cohesiveness, elasticity, adhesiveness, and chewiness. Meanwhile, MOSP-CA-2.5 exhibited gel strength. Incorporation of CA significantly increased the exposure of hydrophobic residues and the concentration-dependent increase in disulfide bonds in MOSP-CA gel. Thus, hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonds, and disulfide bonds collectively stabilized the structure of MOSP-CA gel. The findings would broaden the application of MOSP and improve the utilization value of MOSP in various industries.
