To identify high-valued coproducts from commercially processed corn germ, it was necessary to determine the effect of processing conditions on corn germ proteins. We found that significantly less protein was extracted from commercial wet-milled as compared to dry-milled corn germ using Tris, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) buffer containing 14 mM 2-mercaptoethanol at 100 degrees C for 10 min. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) revealed a number of proteins with molecular masses ranging from approximately 10 to 66 kDa for the dry-milled corn germ as compared to only a few significant protein bands centered around 23 kDa in the wet-milled corn germ. The protein content of the wet- and dry-milled corn germ was approximately the same; however, nonprotein nitrogen values were significantly greater for the wet-milled than for the dry-milled germ. The distribution of fractionated germ protein freshly excised from the embryo of yellow dent corn kernels was more similar to that of dry-milled than wet-milled corn. SDS-PAGE of laboratory preparations of wet-milled corn germ more closely resembled commercial dry- than wet-milled corn germ, which could be attributed to limited microbial growth during steeping in the laboratory preparations.  相似文献

In this project we report on the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity of a bovine gelatin hydrolysate (Bh2) that was submitted to further hydrolysis by different enzymes. The thermolysin hydrolysate (Bh2t) showed the highest in vitro ACE inhibitory activity, and interestingly a marked in vivo blood pressure-lowering effect was demonstrated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). In contrast, Bh2 showed no effect in SHR, confirming the need for the extra thermolysin hydrolysis. Hence, an angiotensin I-evoked contractile response in isolated rat aortic rings was inhibited by Bh2t, but not by Bh2, suggesting ACE inhibition as the underlying antihypertensive mechanism for Bh2t. Using mass spectrometry, seven small peptides, AG, AGP, VGP, PY, QY, DY and IY or LY or HO-PY were identified in Bh2t. As these peptides showed ACE inhibitory activity and were more prominent in Bh2t than in Bh2, the current data provide evidence that these contribute to the antihypertensive effect of Bh2t.  相似文献

The dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP-IV)-inhibitory activity of peptides derived from Atlantic salmon skin gelatin hydrolyzed by alcalase (ALA), bromelain (BRO), and Flavourzyme (FLA) was determined. The FLA hydrolysate with the enzyme/substrate ratio of 6% showed the greatest DPP-IV-inhibitory activity. The hydrolysate was fractionated by ultrafiltration with 1 and 2.5 kDa cutoff membranes, and the <1 kDa fraction had the highest DPP-IV-inhibitory activity with an IC(50) value of 1.35 mg/mL. The F-1 fraction further isolated by HPLC showed the IC(50) value against DPP-IV of 57.3 μg/mL, and the peptide sequences were identified as Gly-Pro-Ala-Glu (372.4 Da) and Gly-Pro-Gly-Ala (300.4 Da). The synthetic peptides showed dose-dependent inhibition effects on DPP-IV with IC(50) values of 49.6 and 41.9 μM, respectively. The results suggest that the peptides derived from Atlantic salmon skin gelatin would be beneficial ingredients for functional foods or pharmaceuticals against type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

In this study, collagen extracted from chicken legs (which are the yellow keratin parts containing a nail) was hydrolyzed with various enzymes, and the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity of each hydrolysate was determined. The hydrolysate by treatment with an Aspergillus species-derived enzyme had the highest activity (IC 50 = 260 microg/mL). The fraction of this hydrolysate obtained by ultrafiltration with a molecular-weight cutoff of 3000 Da (low fraction) had a stronger activity (IC 50 = 130 microg/mL) than the fractionated one. This fraction was further fractionated by HPLC, and the peptides in the fraction with high ACE-inhibitory activity were identified. The amino acid sequences of the four peptides were identified using a protein sequencer. These peptides were synthesized to confirm their ACE-inhibitory activities; this showed that peptides with a Gly-Ala-Hyp-Gly-Leu-Hyp-Gly-Pro sequence had the highest activity (IC 50 = 29 microM). When the low fraction was administered to spontaneous hypertensive rats, a decrease in their blood pressure was observed after 2 h of administration, and a significant decrease in blood pressure (-50 mmHg) was observed after 6 h. Moreover, long-term administration studies indicated that the low fraction showed a significant suppression of increased blood pressure.  相似文献

Fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) produced by incubation of Pacific hake fillet with 3.00% Protamex at pH 6.5 and 40 degrees C for 125 min demonstrated in vitro ACE-inhibitory activity (IC50 = 165 microg/mL), which was enhanced by ultrafiltration through a 10 kDa molecular weight cutoff membrane (IC50 = 44 microg/mL). However, after simulated gastrointestinal digestion, FPH and ultrafiltrate had similar ACE-inhibitory activity (IC 50 = 90 microg/mL), indicating that FPH peptides act as "pro-drug type" inhibitors and that enrichment by ultrafiltration may be unnecessary. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry confirmed that the molecular weights of major peaks were <1 kDa regardless of ultrafiltration. ACE-inhibitory activities of digested hydrolysates were not significantly affected by preincubation with ACE ( P > 0.05) and exhibited a competitive inhibitory mode. A permeability assay using fully differentiated colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco-2) cells showed an apical to basolateral transport of peptides that ranged from approximately 2 to 20% after 2 h at 37 degrees C. Pacific hake fillet hydrolysates are a potentially bioavailable source of ACE-inhibitory peptides awaiting further in vivo study.  相似文献

Defibrinated bovine plasma (DBP) was treated with the microbial protease Flavourzyme to obtain protein hydrolysates with various degrees of hydrolysis (DH). The angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibiting activity of the hydrolyzed protein was assessed with hippuryl-His-Leu as the substrate. The amount of hippuric acid released, due to uninhibited ACE activity, was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. ACE inhibiting (ACEI) activity was found to increase with increasing DH; the 43% DH hydrolysate exhibited the highest activity and had an IC(50) of 1.08 mg/mL. Peptide fractions with high ACEI activity were isolated using size exclusion chromatography. The fraction that possessed the highest ACEI activity contained peptides with GYP, HL(I), HPY, HPGH, L(I)F, SPY, and YPH sequence motifs, as determined by reversed-phase liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry using a novel immonium precursor-ion scanning technique. Some of these motifs correspond to sequences found in bovine serum albumin, a potential source of ACEI peptides in bovine plasma.  相似文献

The in vitro angiotensin I-converting enyzme (ACE) inhibitory activity of Pacific hake hydrolysates was investigated as a function of hydrolysis conditions, starting material variability, and ultrafiltration. Hake fillets were hydrolyzed using Protamex protease under various conditions of pH, hydrolysis time, and enzyme-to-substrate ratio (% E/S) according to a response surface methodology (RSM) central composite design. The hydrolysate produced at pH 6.5, 125 min, and 3.0% E/S had an IC 50 of 165 +/- 9 microg of total solids/mL. ACE-inhibitory activity was not significantly different (P < 0.05) for hydrolysates produced using higher time-enzyme combinations within the model or from fish of different catches. Ultrafiltration (10 kDa molecular mass cutoff) resulted in an IC50 value of 44 +/- 7 microg of peptides/mL, 2.5 times more potent than the commercial product PeptACE Peptides (IC50 = 114 +/- 8 microg of peptides/mL). These results suggest that hydrolysates prepared with minimal fractionation from Pacific hake, an undervalued fish, may be a commercially competitive source of ACE-inhibitory peptides.  相似文献

The blood pressure lowering effect of a pea protein hydrolysate (PPH) that contained <3 kDa peptides, isolated by membrane ultrafiltration from the thermolysin digest of pea protein isolate (PPI), was examined using different rat models of hypertension as well as hypertensive human subjects. The PPH showed weak in vitro activities against renin and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) with inhibitory activities of 17 and 19%, respectively, at 1 mg/mL test concentration. Oral administration of the PPH to spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) at doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight led to a lowering of hourly systolic blood pressure (SBP), with a maximum reduction of 19 mmHg at 4 h. In contrast, orally administered unhydrolyzed PPI had no blood pressure reducing effect in SHR, suggesting that thermolysin hydrolysis may have been responsible for releasing bioactive peptides from the native protein. Oral administration of the PPH to the Han:SPRD-cy rat (a model of chronic kidney disease) over an 8-week period led to 29 and 25 mmHg reductions in SBP and diastolic blood pressure, respectively. The PPH-fed rats had lower plasma levels of angiotensin II, the major vasopressor involved in development of hypertension, but there was no effect on plasma activity or renal mRNA levels of ACE. However, renal expression of renin mRNA levels was reduced by approximately 50% in the PPH-fed rats, suggesting that reduced renin may be responsible for the reduced levels of angiotensin II. In a 3-week randomized double blind placebo-controlled crossover human intervention trial (7 volunteers), significant (p<0.05) reductions (over placebo) in SBP of 5 and 6 mmHg were obtained in the second and third weeks, respectively, for the PPH group. Therefore, thermolysin derived bioactive peptides from PPH reduced blood pressure in hypertensive rats and human subjects, likely via effects on the renal angiotensin system.  相似文献

Proteolytic digestion of dried bonito muscle with thermolysin produces a hydrolysate with strong angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity and is the basis of a dietary supplement with antihypertensive activity. A major portion of the ACE activity was shown previously to arise from the peptide Leu-Lys-Pro-Asn-Met (LKPNM). A straightforward method to quantify this peptide was developed using one-step C18 solid-phase extraction (SPE) followed by LC-MS/MS quantification. The SPE step resulted in a hydrolysate that was still crude, as illustrated by combined size-exclusion chromatography/multi-angle laser light scattering detection that showed that a major fraction of oligopeptides were in the 2-20 kDa range. This fraction has a weight-average molecular weight (M(w)) of approximately 5.0 kDa. Method validation for specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, and reproducibility showed that standard additions of synthetic LKPNM to bonito extract with SPE enrichment followed by LC-MS/MS is a suitably robust procedure for the determination of LKPNM content. The method was also successful for encapsulated powders in which the excipients used are insoluble in water and could be removed by centrifugation.  相似文献

The fractioning of some components and their immobilization of Flavourzyme, a commercial protease/aminopeptidase preparation, has been investigated to improve its specificity and stability. Adsorption of Flavourzyme on two ionic exchangers yielded two fractions with endoprotease activity and one fraction containing aminopeptidase activity. The use of an amine agarose gel has made it possible to purify a 43 kDa protein with only endoprotease activity. Immobilization of this endoprotease and the original Flavourzyme preparation onto glyoxyl-agarose provided derivatives that were more thermostable than their soluble counterparts. Tests using immobilized Flavourzyme and immobilized purified endoprotease for the hydrolysis of chickpea proteins showed that both preparations can be used for the production of protein hydrolysates and compare very favorably with the original crude Flavourzyme in terms of reducing the production of free amino acids. This was especially so in the case of immobilized endoprotease, which produced only 0.2% free amino acids. Keeping free amino acids content low is very important in protein hydrolysates for nutritional use to avoid excessive osmotic pressure.  相似文献

beta-Lactoglobulin (betaLg) was hydrolyzed by plasmin to a degree of hydrolysis of 4%. The hydrolysate was fractionated by ion-exchange chromatography and subsequent hydrophobic-interaction chromatography. The betaLg peptide fraction consisting of smaller peptides (mostly <2 kDa) had poor foam- and emulsion-forming and -stabilizing properties. Most of the betaLg peptides were identified (in either the nonreduced or reduced form) by mass spectrometry on the basis of the known primary structure of the intact protein and the specificity of the enzyme. The peptides formed during betaLg/plasmin-hydrolysis were (1) peptides lacking a cysteyl residue, (2) peptides composed of a single amino acid chain containing intramolecular disulfide bonds, and (3) peptides composed of two amino acid chains linked by an intermolecular disulfide bond. It appeared that significant SH/SS-exchange had taken place during hydrolysis. Many of the peptides present in the peptide fraction that exhibited good functional properties were disulfide-linked fragments.  相似文献

An inexpensive zein-lipid mixture was isolated from yellow dent, dry-milled corn. Grease permeation through zein isolate applied to brown Kraft paper was found to be independent of loading levels at zein isolate levels above 30 mg/16 in.(2). The data shows that water vapor transmission rates depended on the amount of coating applied. Triacylglycerols were the most abundant lipid in milled corn but were absent in the zein isolate (perhaps due to hydrolysis by lipases). Zein from the paper was hydrolyzed enzymatically and the hydrolysis monitored by SDS-capillary electrophoresis. At an E:S ratio of 1:100 no further increase in the hydrolysate peak occurred after 10 and 30 min for alpha-chymotrypsin and pancreatin 8 x; however, zein and lipid were still present 1 h after hydrolysis by pancreatin 1 x.  相似文献

Autolysis of protein isolates from vascular bundle and inner tuber tissues of potato (Solanum tuberosum) enhanced the inhibition of the angiotensin converting enzyme I (ACE), a biochemical factor affecting blood pressure (hypertension). The physiological age of the tuber affected the strength of ACE inhibition, the rate of its increase during autolysis, and the tuber tissue where ACE inhibition was most pronounced. The highest inhibitory activities (50% reduction in ACE activity achieved following autolysis at a protein concentration of 0.36 mg mL (-1)) were measured in tubers after 5-6 months of storage prior to sprouting. The rate of ACE inhibition was positively correlated with protease activity in tuber tissues. Amendment of the autolysis reaction with protein substrates from which bioactive ACE-inhibitory peptides may be released, for example, a purified recombinant protein or a concentrate of total tuber proteins, also enhanced ACE inhibition. Many tuber proteins including aspartic protease inhibitors were degraded during autolysis. The data provide indications of differences in the enzymatic activities confined to different parts of the potato tuber at different physiological stages. Results suggest that native enzymes and substrate proteins of potato tubers can be utilized in search of dietary tools to manage elevated blood pressure.  相似文献

The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity of several commercial fermented milks was evaluated. Most of these products showed moderate inhibitory activity, but a few exceptions were detected. The high ACE-inhibitory activity found in some cases could be related to the origin of the milk. Two of these products were subjected to an enzymatic hydrolysis process, which simulates physiological digestion, to study the influence of digestion on ACE-inhibitory activity. The activity did not significantly change or increase during simulated gastrointestinal digestion. The peptides generated from one selected product during simulated digestion were sequenced by tandem spectrometry. Most peptides found at the end of the simulated digestion were released after 30 min of incubation with the pancreatic extract. This suggests that physiological digestion promotes the formation of active peptides from the proteins present in these fermented products. The potential ACE-inhibitory activity of the identified peptides is discussed with regard to their amino acid sequences.  相似文献

A set of in vitro assay conditions were selected for the determination of ACE-inhibitory activity, and the need was demonstrated to standardize this assay so that the results obtained by different authors may be comparable. The conditions selected were as follows: 10 mM HHL concentration in 0.2 M potassium phosphate buffer and 0.3 M NaCl and 26 mU of ACE/mL as reaction medium; incubation time, 80 min at 37 degrees C. The method was applied to the study of ACE-inhibitory activity of dairy product and wine samples. Of the samples assayed, it was infant formulae whey that produces the greatest ACE inhibition. Red wine also presents a high inhibition percentage. This latter sample has an important matrix effect that must be corrected in the calculation. ACE-inhibition type was also studied, using a yogurt whey and a Captropil solution as substrates. The whey produced noncompetitive inhibition and the Captropil competitive inhibition.  相似文献

Whey protein and casein were hydrolyzed with 11 commercially available enzymes. Foam properties of 44 samples were measured and were related to biochemical properties of the hydrolysates using statistical data analysis. All casein hydrolysates formed high initial foam levels, whereas whey hydrolysates differed in their foam-forming abilities. Regression analysis using the molecular weight distribution of whey hydrolysates as predictors showed that the hydrolysate fraction containing peptides of 3-5 kDa was most strongly related to foam formation. Foam stability of whey hydrolysates and of most casein hydrolysates was inferior to that of the intact proteins. The foam stability of casein hydrolysate foams was correlated to the molecular weight distribution of the hydrolysates; a high proportion of peptides >7 kDa, composed of both intact casein and high molecular weight peptides, was positively related to foam stability.  相似文献

The inhibition of ice crystal growth in ice cream mix by gelatin hydrolysate produced by papain action was studied. The ice crystal growth was monitored by thermal cycling between -14 and -12 degrees C at a rate of one cycle per 3 min. It is shown that the hydrolysate fraction containing peptides in the molecular weight range of about 2000-5000 Da exhibited the highest inhibitory activity on ice crystal growth in ice cream mix, whereas fractions containing peptides greater than 7000 Da did not inhibit ice crystal growth. The size distribution of gelatin peptides formed in the hydrolysate was influenced by the pH of hydrolysis. The optimum hydrolysis conditions for producing peptides with maximum ice crystal growth inhibitory activity was pH 7 at 37 degrees C for 10 min at a papain to gelatin ratio of 1:100. However, this may depend on the type and source of gelatin. The possible mechanism of ice crystal growth inhibition by peptides from gelatin is discussed. Molecular modeling of model gelatin peptides revealed that they form an oxygen triad plane at the C-terminus with oxygen-oxygen distances similar to those found in ice nuclei. Binding of this oxygen triad plane to the prism face of ice nuclei via hydrogen bonding appears to be the mechanism by which gelatin hydrolysate might be inhibiting ice crystal growth in ice cream mix.  相似文献

The squid (Loligo pealei) byproduct composed of heads, viscera, skin, fins, and small tubes was subjected to hydrolysis at 55 degrees C and natural pH (6.8) using endogenous proteases. Squid hydrolysate was characterized during the course of hydrolysis for changes in the degree of hydrolysis, viscosity, electrophoretic pattern of proteins and peptides, and amino acid and fatty acid profiles. The change in viscosity can be used to monitor the progress of protein hydrolysis up to the molecular mass of 26.63 kDa. The 2 h hydrolysis resulted in a 2-fold increase in the total free amino acids and yielded hydrolysate with protein molecular mass of < or =45 kDa having feed attractability and good amino acid and fatty acid profiles with high contents of essential amino acids and fatty acids. Such hydrolysis-induced changes can make squid byproduct hydrolysate a good source of aquaculture feed ingredient, especially for a starter diet for larval fish.  相似文献
