Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral melanoma (OM) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) are frequently diagnosed in dogs, presenting a challenge in distinguishing them from benign oral tumors (BN). Salivary metabolomic biomarkers offer a practical solution because of saliva's direct contact with tumors and the noninvasive nature of collection. OBJECTIVE Assess the diversity and abundance of the salivary metabolome in dogs with BN, OM, and OSCC using amine/phenol submetabolome analysis and high-performance chemical isotope labeling liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (CIL LC-MS). ANIMALS Study included 11 BN, 24 OM, 10 OSCC, and 20 healthy control dogs. METHODS Case-control cross-sectional study was conducted to assess salivary submetabolic profiles in dogs with BN, OM, and OSCC and healthy dogs. Samples were labeled with 12C-dansyl chloride and analyzed using CIL LC-MS targeted to amine- and phenol-containing metabolites for amine/phenol submetabolome analysis. RESULTS Distinct clusters and significant differences in metabolite concentrations were observed among the oral cancer, BN, and control groups. A total of 154 and 66 metabolites showed significantly altered concentrations, particularly in OM and OSCC, respectively, when compared with BN (Padj < .05). Potential metabolic biomarkers were identified for each cancer, including decreased concentrations of seryl-arginine and sarcosine in OSCC. Moreover, high-confidence putative metabolites were identified, including an increase in tryptophyl-threonine and a decrease in 1,2-dihydroxynapthalene-6-sulfonic acid and hydroxyprolyl-hydroxyproline for OM. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE We identified high coverage of the amine/phenol submetabolome, including seryl-arginine, and sarcosine, in OSCC. Our findings emphasize the potential of these biomarkers for distinguishing between oral OSCC and BN in dogs.

Abstract
Dipeptides have been shown to be an important taste substance in alcoholic beverages. However, the characterization of dipeptides in Chinese liquors was poor. Here, dansylation combined with liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry was employed to analyze dipeptides in eight liquors of two flavors. Consequently, 35 dipeptides were identified from liquors and 32 of them were quantified. Dipeptide quantification showed LODs smaller than 2.5 ng/mL. The calibration curves showed concentration spans from two to three orders of magnitude with satisfactory linearity. The matrix effects in low and high concentrations were from -25.71 % to 24.19 % and -14.82 % to 20.73 %, respectively. Intra- and inter-day precision is lower than 15 % for both low and high concentrations. The dipeptide contents in sauce flavor liquors were higher than those in strong flavor liquors. Ala- and -Phe dipeptides showed their unique trends between sauce and strong flavor liquors. This study provides new clues to evaluate taste of liquors.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2023; 103:7187-7198.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To understand the mechanism of co-inoculation of Staphylococcus vitulinus and Staphylococcus xylosus (SX&SV) on taste quality of dry-cured bacon, physicochemical parameters, microbial community, metabolite compositions and taste attributes were investigated during the processing of dry-cured bacon with Staphylococcus inoculation. The potential correlation between core bacteria and metabolites was evaluated, and the metabolic pathway of key metabolites was further explored. RESULTS The values of pH, water activity and adhesiveness were significantly lower in SX&SV, and more than 2.56- and 2.15-fold higher values in richness and overall acceptance were found in SX&SV bacon than in CK bacon. The overwhelming advantage of Staphylococcus was confirmed in SX&SV by high-throughput sequencing. Sixty-six metabolites were identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and oligopeptides, amino acid derivatives and organic acids were the key components. Pearson correlation demonstrated that the accumulation of oligopeptides, amino acid derivatives and organic acids were positively correlated with high abundance of Staphylococcus. The pathways of purine metabolism, glutathione metabolism and glutamate metabolism were mainly involved in developing the taste quality of SX&SV. CONCLUSION The co-inoculation of Staphylococcus vitulinus and Staphylococcus xylosus enhanced the taste attributes of dry-cured bacon. The present study provides the theoretical reference with respect to regulating the taste quality of fermented meat products by starter cultures of Staphylococcus during manufacture. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A long-term high-sodium diet has been reported to increase the incidence of cardiovascular diseases and other diseases, including osteoporosis, gastric cancer, stomach cancer, and kidney stones. Meat products contain high NaCl content and contribute to approximately 20% of the total sodium intake, so reducing its sodium content has always been the critical focus of industries and researchers. Salty and saltiness-enhancing peptides (SSEP) are a potential salt substitute that exhibits a salt taste or saltiness-enhancing activity. The partial replacement of NaCl by SSEP in low-sodium meat products has been a technological challenge. This review discussed the salt taste transduction mechanism of SSEP. The current studies about preparing SSEP based on different protein sources were summarized. Further, the effects of SSEP combined with other chloride salts, such as KCl and CaCl2, on the sensory properties of meat products were summarized. Finally, the challenges associated with applying the peptide to low-sodium meat products were discussed, focusing on the efficient preparation method and the effect of meat product processing methods and matrices on the efficacy of SSEP.

Abstract
Wuding chicken is popular with consumers in China because of its umami taste. This study aimed to identify novel umami peptides from Wuding chicken and explore the taste mechanism of umami peptides. The molecular masses and amino acid compositions of peptides in Wuding chicken were identified by nano-scale liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (Nano-HPLC-MS/MS). The taste characteristics of the peptides synthesized by the solid-phase method were evaluated by sensory evaluation combined with electronic tongue technology. The secondary structure of the peptides was further analyzed by circular dichroism (CD), and the relationship between the structure and taste of the peptides was elucidated by molecular docking. The results showed that eight potential umami peptides were identified, among which FVT (FT-3), LDF (LF-3), and DLAGRDLTDYLMKIL (DL-15) had distinct umami tastes, and FT-3 had the highest umami intensity, followed by LF-3 and DL-15. The relative contents of β-sheets in the three umami peptides were 55.20%, 57.30%, and 47.70%, respectively, which were the key components of Wuding chicken umami peptides. In addition to LF-3 embedded in the cavity-binding domain of the TIR1, both FT-3 and DL-15 were embedded in the venus flytrap domain (VFTD) of the T1R3 to bind the umami receptor T1R1/T1R3. The main binding forces between the umami peptides and the umami receptor T1R1/T1R3 relied on hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions, and the key amino acid residues of the combination of umami peptides and the umami receptor T1R1/T1R3 were Glu292, Asn235, and Tyr262.

Abstract
The self-assembled structures of coix seeds affected the enzymatic efficiency and doesn't facilitate the release of more active peptides. The influence of heating combined with ultrasound pretreatment (HT + US) on the structure, enzymatic properties and hydrolysates (CHPs) of coix seed prolamin was investigated. Results showed that the structural of coix seed prolamins has changed after HT + US, including increased surface hydrophobicity, reduced α-helix and random coil content, and a decrease in particle size. So that, leads to changes in thermodynamic parameters such as an increase in the reaction rate constant and a decrease in activation energy, enthalpy and enthalpy. The fractions of <1000 Da, degree of hydrolysis and α-glucosidase inhibitory were increased in the HT + US group compared to single pretreatment by 0.68%-17.34%, 12.69%-34.43% and 30.00%-53.46%. The peptide content and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of CHPs could be maintained at 72.21 % and 57.97 % of the initial raw materials after in vitro digestion. Thus, the findings indicate that HT + US provides a feasible and efficient approach to can effectively enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency and hypoglycaemic efficacy of CHPs.

Abstract
The ultrasound-induced impacts on the peptide characteristics and taste of unsmoked bacon have been evaluated through the use of peptidomics and bioinformatics approaches. Furthermore, the effect of such ultrasound-induced changes on the main endogenous proteases responsible for peptide generation was also investigated. In fact, the activity of main endogenous proteases was significantly increased after ultrasonic treatment during the processing of unsmoked bacon, and contributed to an increased number and an enhanced LFQ intensity of peptides. Besides, such increased amount of peptides and LFQ intensity with up to 500 W ultrasonic treatment were beneficial for the taste improvement of the final products as shown by taste prediction analysis. Nevertheless, an excessive ultrasonic power like 750 W hindered protein hydrolysis and further exerted a negative effect on peptide generation. Therefore, ultrasound under controlled conditions could be considered as a promising way to improve the taste of unsmoked bacon.

Abstract
NaCl is the main curing agent in dry-cured meat products, and a large amount of NaCl addition leads to high salt content of final products. Salt content and composition are important factors affecting the activity of endogenous proteases, which in turn could affect proteolysis as well as the quality of dry-cured meat products. With the increasing emphasis on the relationship between diet and health, reducing sodium content without sacrificing quality and safety of products is a great challenge for dry-cured meat industry. In this review, the change of endogenous proteases activity during processing, the potential relationship between sodium reduction strategy, endogenous proteases activity, and quality were summarized and discussed. The results showed that sodium replacement strategy and mediated-curing had a complementary advantage in influencing endogenous proteases activity. In addition, mediated-curing had the potential to salvage the negative effects of sodium substitution by affecting endogenous proteases. Based on the results, a sodium reduction strategy that sodium replacement in conjunction with mediated-curing based on endogenous proteases was proposed for the future perspective.

Abstract
Endogenous proteases are significant for Jinhua ham quality. Protein degradation affects the chemical traits, texture and the formation of flavor substances. Protease activities are affected by different process parameters, such as processing temperature, maturation time, salt content and the drying rate. They affect ham quality, which can be controlled by process parameters. The influences of key factors on Jinhua ham quality are briefly summarized, which can provide a theoretical basis for the selection of specific parameters in dry-cured ham processing. Furthermore, some suggestions are proposed for correcting and improving the flavor and textural defects of ham, yet the effectiveness depends on the operating conditions. The determination of enzyme activity is not real-time and unsupervised at the moment. Future research will focus on the determination of the actual endogenous protease activity and the quantitative relationship between the enzyme activity and main processing parameters.

Yang Z, Cai J, Boateng EF, Xing L, Zhang W. Insight into Antioxidant Activity and Peptide Profile of Jinhua Ham Broth Peptides at Different Cooking Times. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12030606. [PMID: 36978854 PMCID: PMC10045146 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12030606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023] Open
Abstract
This present study aimed to investigate the effects of various cooking times (1 h, 1.5 h, 2 h, 2.5 h, named as JHBP-1, JHBP-1.5, JHBP-2, JHBP-2.5) on the antioxidant activity and peptide profile of Jinhua ham broth peptides (JHBP). The peptides extracted from uncooked ham were used as an uncooked group with the name of JHBP-0. The results revealed that the antioxidant efficacy in the four cooked groups changed dramatically compared to JHBP-0. After cooking, the DPPH radical scavenging activity, hydroxyl radical scavenging activity and superoxide anion radical scavenging activity decreased, except for the Fe2+ chelation and ABTS+ scavenging capacity which increased significantly. However, the cooked groups still showed a strong antioxidant capacity. In particular, the superoxide anion radical scavenging ability and the Fe2+ chelation action were significantly stronger compared to glutathione (GSH) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) (p < 0.05). JHBP-1.5 also displayed stronger antioxidant capacity than the other three cooked groups, and its secondary structure and mass distribution changed significantly after cooking, specifically with an increased proportion of helix and <1 kDa peptides. Moreover, the constitution of free amino acids (FAAs) and the types of peptides released in the broth increased significantly with a longer cooking time. In total, 1306 (JHBP-0), 1352 (JHBP-1), 1431 (JHBP-1.5), 1500 (JHBP-2), and 1556 (JHBP-2.5) peptide sequences were detected using LC-MC/MC. The proportion of <1 kDa peptides also gradually increased as the cooking time extended, which is consistent with the molecular weight distribution measurements.

Abstract
Dry-cured pork products, such as dry-cured ham, undergo an extensive proteolysis during manufacturing process which determines the organoleptic properties of the final product. As a result of endogenous pork muscle endo- and exopeptidases, many medium- and short-chain peptides are released from muscle proteins. Many of them have been isolated, identified, and characterized, and some peptides have been reported to exert relevant bioactivity with potential benefit for human health. However, little attention has been given to di- and tripeptides, which are far less known, although they have received increasing attention in recent years due to their high potential relevance in terms of bioactivity and role in taste development. This review gathers the current knowledge about di- and tripeptides, regarding their bioactivity and sensory properties and focusing on their generation during long-term processing such as dry-cured pork meats.

Investigating the Short Peptidome Profile of Italian Dry-Cured Ham at Different Processing Times by High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry and Chemometrics. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23063193.

Abstract
Short peptides have been spiking interest owing to their significant contribution to the taste and functional properties of dry-cured ham. In this study, a suspect screening approach based on high-resolution mass spectrometry was employed for the comprehensive characterization of the short endogenous peptidome in dry-cured ham samples at different processing stages (14, 22, and 34 months). After careful manual spectra interpretation, a chemometric approach based on principal component analysis was employed for highlighting the differences between the three sets of samples. A total of 236 short peptide sequences was tentatively identified, including 173 natural short peptides and 63 sequences containing non-proteinogenic amino acids, the highest number ever reported for endogenous sequences in dry-cured ham. Samples in the latest processing stages presented a generally higher abundance of dipeptides, indicating residual proteolytic activity. Moreover, the several annotated modified short peptides, mainly pyroglutamination and lactoyl conjugation, allowed hypothesizing several reactions occurring over time. For the first time, several lactoyl-dipeptides were tentatively identified in dry-cured ham samples with maximum concentration in the late processing stage samples. The presented results significantly contribute to the understanding of the reaction involving short peptides that affect the sensory and functional properties of dry-cured ham.

Abstract
Small peptides such as dipeptides contribute to a great extent to the characteristic taste of dry-cured hams. In this study, hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) combined to tandem mass spectrometry was used to separate, identify, and quantify seven dipeptides in dry-cured hams sampled at different processing times (6, 12, 18, and 24 months). Results showed an increased concentration of dipeptides DA, DG, EE, ES, and EV with the length of processing, obtaining values up to 23 μg/g of dry-cured ham, which suggests an intense action of muscle enzymes dipeptidyl peptidases during the process. The dipeptide VG significantly decreased from 7 to 4 μg/g of dry-cured ham as the processing increased from 6 to 24 months, whereas the dipeptide PA showed low values between 380 and 550 ng/g of dry-cured ham at all the sampling times. Additionally, in silico analyses reported the sensory characteristics of the studied dipeptides, mostly giving bitter and umami taste, and predicted their allergenicity, toxicity, and physicochemical properties. These results could be useful for further studies related to the pleasant taste of dry-cured hams.

Abstract
The promising angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides derived from corn protein usually have strong bitterness and thus limit their use among consumers. To prepare ACE inhibitory peptides with low bitterness, two energy-efficient types of ultrasound pretreatment were introduced into the multi-enzymatic system of corn gluten meal. The results showed that Flavourzyme–Protamex sequential enzymolysis produced the peptides with high ACE inhibitory activity and the lowest bitterness compared with other enzymolysis conditions. During the optimized sequential enzymolysis, the divergent ultrasound pretreatment with a frequency of 40 kHz for 60 min exhibited higher ACE inhibitory activity (65.36%, accounting for 73.84% of the highest ACE inhibitory activity) and lower bitterness intensity of peptides, compared with an energy-gathered ultrasound. The results of the study showed that, on the one hand, divergent ultrasound pretreatment induced the highest intrinsic fluorescence of protein, with more hydrophobic amino acid residues exposed for cleavage by exopeptidases, which leads to a reduction in bitterness. On the other hand, the amino acid composition analysis proved that more Tyr, Ile, and Val moieties, instead of Leu (bitterest substance), and more peptide fractions with a molecular weight >1000 Da should be the structural features of high ACE inhibitory peptides.

Abstract
A simpler strategy was carried out to identify dipeptides in dry-cured ham. Ultrafiltration following MALDI-ToF MS allows a rapid peptide identification. AH, AL, DD, EV and VF were identified in samples with different processing times. Bioactive or tasting food-derived dipeptides can be identified by this methodology.
The processing of dry-cured ham results in the generation of small peptides by the action of endogenous enzymes on muscle proteins. Common proteomic workflows involve previous separation techniques based on liquid chromatography which are expensive and time-consuming. In this study, a convenient proteomic approach based on MALDI-ToF is proposed for the first time for the detection of dipeptides in Spanish dry-cured ham. Dipeptides AH, AL, DD, EV, and VF were identified in hams of 18 and 24 months of dry-curing. This work provides insights on the efficiency of a new peptidomic workflow for the short peptide identification from a complex food matrix and permits to evaluate the sample in terms of the presence of taste-related and bioactive dipeptides.

Abstract
AbstractHigh cholesterolemia is a key risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases, which are the main cause of mortality in developed countries. Most therapies are focused on the modulation of its biosynthesis through 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoAR) inhibitors. In this sense, food-derived bioactive peptides might act as promising health alternatives through their ability to interact with crucial enzymes involved in metabolic pathways, avoiding the adverse effects of synthetic drugs. Dry-cured ham has been widely described as an important source of naturally-generated bioactive peptides exerting ACEI-inhibitory activity, antioxidant activity, and anti-inflammatory activity between others. Based on these findings, the aim of this work was to assess, for the first time, the in vitro inhibitory activity of HMG-CoAR exerted by dipeptides generated during the manufacturing of dry-cured ham, previously described with relevant roles on other bioactivities.The in vitro inhibitory activity of the dipeptides was assessed by measuring the substrate consumption rate of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA reductase in their presence, with the following pertinent calculations.Further research was carried out to estimate the possible interactions of the most bioactive dipeptides with the enzyme by performing in silico analysis consisting of molecular docking approaches.Main findings showed DA, DD, EE, ES, and LL dipeptides as main HMG-CoAR inhibitors. Additionally, computational analysis indicated statin-like interactions of the dipeptides with HMG-CoAR.This study reveals, for the first time, the hypocholesterolemic potential of dry-cured ham-derived dipeptides and, at the same time, converges in the same vein as many reports that experimentally argue the cardiovascular benefits of dry-cured ham consumption due to its bioactive peptide content.

Abstract
Large amounts of meat by- and co-products are generated during slaughtering and meat processing, and require rational management of these products for an ecological disposal. Efficient solutions are very important for sustainability and innovative developments create high added-value from meat by-products with the least environmental impact, handling and disposal costs, in its transition to bioeconomy. Some proteins have relevant technological uses for gelation, foaming and emulsification while protein hydrolyzates may contribute to a better digestibility and palatability. Protein hydrolysis generate added-value products such as bioactive peptides with relevant physiological effects of interest for applications in the food, pet food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry. Inedible fats are increasingly used as raw material for the generation of biodiesel. Other applications are focused on the development of new biodegradable plastics that can constitute an alternative to petroleum-based plastics. This manuscript presents the latest developments for adding value to meat by- and co-products and discusses opportunities for making meat production and processing more sustainable.

Abstract
Excessive bitterness, pastiness, and adhesiveness are the main organoleptic and textural defects of dry-cured ham, which often cause a lot of financial losses to manufacturers and seriously damage the quality of the product. These sensory and textural defects are related to the protein degradation of dry-cured ham. Proteomics shows great potential to improve our understanding of the molecular mechanism of sensory and textural defects and identify biomarkers for monitoring their quality traits. This review presents some of the major achievements and considerations in organoleptic and textural defects of dry-cured ham by proteomics analysis in the recent decades and gives an overview about how to correct sensory and textural defects of dry-cured ham. Proteomics reveals that muscle proteins derived from myofibril and cytoskeleton and involved in metabolic enzymes and oxygen transport have been identified as potential biomarkers in defective dry-cured ham. Relatively high residual activities of cathepsin B and L are responsible for the excessive degradation of these protein biomarkers in defective dry-cured ham. Ultrasound-assisted mild thermal or high-pressure treatment shows a good correction for the organoleptic and textural defects of dry-cured ham by changing microstructure and conformation of muscle proteins by accelerating degradation of proteins and polypeptides into free amino acids.

Abstract
Amino acid stereoconfiguration has been shown to play a key role in the self-assembly of unprotected tripeptides into hydrogels under physiological conditions. Dramatic changes were noted for hydrophobic sequences based on the diphenylalanine motif from the formation of amorphous aggregates in the case of homochiral peptides to nanostructured and stable hydrogels in the case of heterochiral stereoisomers. Herein, we report that by further shortening the sequence to a dipeptide, the overall differences between isomers are less marked, with both homo- and hetero-chiral dipeptides forming gels, although with different stability over time. The soft materials are studied by a number of spectroscopic and microcopic techniques, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction to unveil the supramolecular interactions of these hydrogel building blocks.

Abstract
The growing consumer interest in organic foods, as well as, in many cases, the inconclusiveness of the research comparing organic and conventional foods, indicates a need to study this issue further. The aim of the study was to compare the effects of meat origin (conventional vs. organic) and selected elements of the pork carcass (ham, loin, and shoulder) on the meat proteome and the antioxidant potential of its peptides. The peptidomic approach was used, while the ability of antioxidants to scavenge 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), to chelate Fe(II) ions, and to reduce Fe(III) was determined. Most peptides were derived from myofibrillary proteins. The meat origin and the element of the pork carcass did not have a significant effect on the proteome. On the other hand, the pork origin and the carcass element significantly affected the iron ion-chelating capacity (Fe(II)) and the reducing power of peptides. In particular, pork ham from conventional rearing systems had the best antioxidant properties in relation to potential antioxidant peptides. This could be a factor for human health, as well as for stabilized meat products (e.g., toward lipid oxidation).

Abstract
The potential of collagens to release biopeptides was evaluated using the BIOPEP-UWM-implemented quantitative criteria including the frequency of the release of fragments with a given activity by selected enzyme(s) (AE), relative frequency of release of fragments with a given activity by selected enzyme(s) (W), and the theoretical degree of hydrolysis (DHt). Cow, pig, sheep, chicken, duck, horse, salmon, rainbow trout, goat, rabbit, and turkey collagens were theoretically hydrolyzed using: stem bromelain, ficin, papain, pepsin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, pepsin+trypsin, and pepsin+trypsin+chymotrypsin. Peptides released from the collagens having comparable AE and W were estimated for their likelihood to be bioactive using PeptideRanker Score. The collagens tested were the best sources of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitors. AE and W values revealed that pepsin and/or trypsin were effective producers of such peptides from the majority of the collagens examined. Then, the SwissTargetPrediction program was used to estimate the possible interactions of such peptides with enzymes and proteins, whereas ADMETlab was applied to evaluate their safety and drug-likeness properties. Target prediction revealed that the collagen-derived peptides might interact with several human proteins, especially proteinases, but with relatively low probability. In turn, their bioactivity may be limited by their short half-life in the body.

Soybean (Glycine max) Protein Hydrolysates as Sources of Peptide Bitter-Tasting Indicators: An Analysis Based on Hybrid and Fragmentomic Approaches. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2020.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze soybean proteins as sources of peptides likely to be bitter using fragmentomic and hybrid approaches involving in silico and in vitro studies. The bitterness of peptides (called parent peptides) was theoretically estimated based on the presence of bitter-tasting motifs, particularly those defined as bitter-tasting indicators. They were selected based on previously published multilinear stepwise regression results. Bioinformatic-assisted analyses covered the hydrolysis of five major soybean-originating protein sequences using bromelain, ficin, papain, and proteinase K. Verification of the results in experimental conditions included soy protein concentrate (SPC) hydrolysis, RP-HPLC (for monitoring the proteolysis), and identification of peptides using RP-HPLC-MS/MS. Discrepancies between in silico and in vitro results were observed when identifying parent peptide SPC hydrolysate samples. However, both analyses revealed that conglycinins were the most abundant sources of parent peptides likely to taste bitter. The compatibility percentage of the in silico and in vitro results was 3%. Nine parent peptides with the following sequences were identified in SPC hydrolysates: LSVISPK, DVLVIPLG, LIVILNG, NPFLFG, ISSTIV, PQMIIV, PFPSIL, DDFFL, and FFEITPEK (indicators are in bold). The fragmentomic idea of research might provide a supportive method for predicting the bitterness of hydrolysates. However, this statement needs to be confirmed experimentally.

Identification, taste characteristics and molecular docking study of novel umami peptides derived from the aqueous extract of the clam meretrix meretrix Linnaeus. Food Chem 2019; 312:126053. [PMID: 31884298 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2019.126053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 67] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2019] [Revised: 12/07/2019] [Accepted: 12/10/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
To understand the delicious taste of the clam M. meretrix Linnaeus, the putative umami peptides from the aqueous extract of the cooked clam were obtained by ultrafiltration, gel filtration chromatography, and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The isolated peptide fraction with the most intense umami taste was screened by sensory and electronic tongue analysis. Seven novel peptides, GLLPDGTPR, RPNPFENR, STMLLESER, ANPGPVRDLR, QVAIAHRDAK, VLPTDQNFILR, and VTADESQQDVLK, were identified and synthesized to verify their taste characteristics. The taste activity prediction and the sensory evaluation of the synthetic peptides revealed that those peptides were umami and umami-enhancing peptides. Docking of the synthesized peptides with the umami taste receptor T1R1/T1R3 indicated that the peptides could enter the binding pocket in the Venus flytrap domain of the T1R3 cavity, wherein Asp196 and Glu128 may play key roles in the synergism of umami taste and hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions are important interaction forces.

BIOPEP-UWM Database of Bioactive Peptides: Current Opportunities. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20235978. [PMID: 31783634 PMCID: PMC6928608 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20235978] [Citation(s) in RCA: 384] [Impact Index Per Article: 76.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2019] [Revised: 11/21/2019] [Accepted: 11/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
The BIOPEP-UWM™ database of bioactive peptides (formerly BIOPEP) has recently become a popular tool in the research on bioactive peptides, especially on these derived from foods and being constituents of diets that prevent development of chronic diseases. The database is continuously updated and modified. The addition of new peptides and the introduction of new information about the existing ones (e.g., chemical codes and references to other databases) is in progress. New opportunities include the possibility of annotating peptides containing D-enantiomers of amino acids, batch processing option, converting amino acid sequences into SMILES code, new quantitative parameters characterizing the presence of bioactive fragments in protein sequences, and finding proteinases that release particular peptides.
