Amaranth proteins as a source of antioxidant peptides: Effect of proteolysis
(Elsevier Science, 2010-01)
The antioxidant activity of peptides present in the phosphate buffer-soluble fraction of: – Amaranthus mantegazzianus protein isolates (Is), – protein fractions (Albs, Globs, GlobPs and Gluts), alcalase hydrolysates of ...
Enzymatic soy protein hydrolysis: A tool for biofunctional food ingredient production
(Elsevier, 2019-03)
This work aimed to evaluate the digestive stability of the peptides previously identified from a Corolase PP soy protein hydrolysate (SPH) and to respond to the uncertainty about the merit of controlled hydrolysis. For ...
Application of surface response methodology to optimize hydrolysis of wheat gluten and characterization of selected hydrolysate fractions
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2008-06)
BACKGROUND: The aim of this work was to optimize the hydrolysis experimental conditions to obtain wheat gluten hydrolysates and to characterize fractions from hydrolysates with different hydrolysis degrees in order to ...
Acetylcholinesterase-inhibitor hydrolysates obtained from 'in vitro' enzymatic hydrolysis of mannoproteins extracted from different strains of yeasts
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-02)
In vitro inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) of peptides obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of mannoproteins extracted from strains of yeasts was investigated. Yeast mannoproteins were extracted from ...
Structural and antioxidant properties of cowpea protein hydrolysates
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Cowpea protein isolates extracted at pH 8.0 (I8) and pH 10.0 (I10) were hydrolysed by alcalase to obtain limited (I8LH and I10LH) and extensive (I8HH and I10HH) hydrolysates. Hydrolysis degree was 2.3% for I8LH, 4.6% for ...
Identification of renin inhibitors peptides from amaranth proteins by docking protocols
(Elsevier, 2020-01)
The objective of this work was to develop a new protocol to predict with greater confidence peptides as potential inhibitors of the renin enzyme. For this, free, friendly and rigorous servers developed specifically for ...
Peptides of amaranth were targeted as containing sequences with potential anti-inflammatory properties
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
The immunomodulatory effect of amaranth peptides on epithelial cells activated through the NF-κB signalling pathway was examined. Results showed that extensive protein hydrolysis from amaranth (23 and 30% degree of hydrolysis) ...
Application of peptidases from Maclura pomifera fruit for the production of active biopeptides from whey protein
(Elsevier Science, 2015-11)
A crude extract containing serine peptidases, was prepared from latex of Maclura pomifera fruits. Peptidases were isolated by precipitation with one volume of ethanol with a yield of 5.4 ± 0.4 Ucas per milligram of protein. ...
Identification and characterization of antioxidant peptides obtained from the bioaccessible fraction of α-lactalbumin hydrolysate
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-10)
Abstract: Whey is an abundantand sustainable source of bioactive peptides obtained from cheese making process. Whey proteins such as α-lactalbumin can be biologically active when the bioactive peptides encrypted in the ...
Chelating Properties of Peptides from Red Seaweed Pyropia columbina and Its Effect on Iron Bio-Accessibility
(Springer, 2016-03)
The aim of this work was to evaluate copper-chelating, iron-chelating and anticariogenic activity of peptides obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of P. columbina protein concentrate and to study the effects of chelating ...
