标题: Alternative Proteins as a Source of Bioactive Peptides: The Edible Snail and Generation of Hydrolysates Containing Peptides with Bioactive Potential for Use as Functional Foods 本地全文: 下载 作者: Maria Hayes ; Leticia Mora 期刊名称: Foods 电子版ISSN: 2304-8158 出版年度: 2021 卷号: 10 期号: 2 页码: 276 DOI: 10.3390/foods10020276 出版社: MDPI Publishing 摘要: Members of the Phylum Mollusca include shellfish such as oysters and squid but also the edible garden snail known as Helix aspersa. This snail species is consumed as a delicacy in countries including France (where they are known as petit-gris), southern Spain (where they are known as Bobe), Nigeria, Greece, Portugal and Italy but is not a traditional food in many other countries. However, it is considered an excellent protein source with a balanced amino acid profile and an environmentally friendly, sustainable protein source. The aim of this work was to develop a different dietary form of snail protein by generating protein hydrolysate ingredients from the edible snail using enzyme technology. A second aim was to assess the bioactive peptide content and potential health benefits of these hydrolysates. H. aspersa hydrolysates were made using the enzyme Alcalase® and the nutritional profile of these hydrolysates was determined. In addition, the bioactive peptide content of developed hydrolysates was identified using mass spectrometry. The potential heart health benefits of developed snail hydrolysates were measured in vitro using the Angiotensin-I-converting Enzyme (ACE-1; EC 3.4.15.1) inhibition assay, and the ACE-1 inhibitory drug Captopril© was used as a positive control. The generated H. aspersa hydrolysates were found to inhibit ACE-1 by 95.60% (±0.011) when assayed at a concentration of 1 mg/mL (n = 9) compared to the positive control Captopril© which inhibited ACE-1 by 96.53% (±0.0156) when assayed at a concentration of 0.005 mg/mL (n = 3). A total of 113 unique peptide sequences were identified following MS analysis with peptides identified ranging from 628.35 Da (peptide GGGLVGGI—protein accession number sp P54334 XKDO_BACSU) to 2343.14 Da (peptide GPAGVPGLPGAKGDHGFPGSSGRRGD—protein accession number sp Q7SIB2 CO4A1_BOVIN) in size using the BIOPEP-UWM database. 关键词: edible garden snail; Helix aspersa ; protein; hydrolysis; Alcalase ® ; heart health; angiotensin-converting enzyme; mass spectrometry; sustainable protein edible garden snail ; Helix aspersa ; protein ; hydrolysis ; Alcalase ® ; heart health ; angiotensin-converting enzyme ; mass spectrometry ; sustainable protein
