  • Title: Peptide identification and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity in prolyl endoproteinase digests of bovine α(s)-casein.

    Journal: Food Chem; 2015 Dec 01; 188():210-7. PubMed ID: 26041184.
    Abstract:
    Incubation of sodium caseinate (NaCN) and purified α-casein (αs-CN) with an Aspergillus niger derived prolyl endoproteinase (An-PEP) for 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 24 h resulted in the generation of potent angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory hydrolysates. An ACE IC50 of 21.1±5.1 μg/ml was obtained on incubation of An-PEP with NaCN for 4 h. Fractionation of the NaCN hydrolysates using 3 kDa centrifugal filters resulted in highly active permeate fractions, the most potent being obtained from the 3 h hydrolysate (ACE IC50=2.9±0.3 μg/ml). The hydrolytic specificity of An-PEP for purified α-CN was assessed using UPLC ESI MS/MS. The analysis confirmed An-PEP's cleavage preference for the C-terminal side of Pro and also confirmed that An-PEP has the ability to cleave at the C-terminal of Ala, Leu, Arg and His residues.
