- Abstract
The hydrolysates of animal proteins from Agri-Resources have been the subject of numerous studies for their potential which makes it possible to produce molecules with high added value thanks to their richness in bioactive peptides obtained after enzymatic hydrolysis. The poultry cruor represents an important co-product from slaughterhouses. The aim of this study is to characterize this new source of peptides to be valorized as feed additives. In this work, the conditions of peptides production were fist studied, and revealed that hydrolysis using pepsin as enzyme and discoloration are both optimal at pH 3, and that the optimal initial substrate concentration is at 9% (w/v). The potential of poultry cruor to contain bioactive peptides was then studied in silico by comparing poultry with bovine hemoglobin derived peptides using bioinformatic tools. The blast results showed the presence of high similarities between poultry hemoglobin and bovine hemoglobin sequences with identities of 71.13% and 64.34% for α and β chains respectively. Prediction of cleavage sites of poultry hemoglobin was also carried out using Peptidecutter software and compared to bovine hemoglobin peptides. The results revealed the presence of similar peptides of poultry cruor hydrolysates comparing to bovine hemoglobin hydrolysates with generation of many new peptides. Mass spectrometry analysis was carried out to investigate the presence of bioactive peptides in poultry cruor hydrolysate based on those identified in previous studies. Results revealed the presence of 28 bioactive peptides with mainly opioid and antibacterial peptides. The antibacterial activity against 6 different strains was then assayed. Results revealed bacterial growth inhibition with interesting MIC values (10 mg/mL against M. luteus E. coli and S. aureus,1.25 mg/mL against K. rhizophilia and 20 mg/mL against S. entirica and L. innocua). The antioxidant activity was also evaluated using different tests. The β-carotene bleaching inhibition activity revealed a relative antioxidant activity (RAA) of 79.23 ± 1.4%. The DPPH
•+ trapping assay an antiradical activity of poultry cruor hydrolysate of 829.35 ± 21.12 µmol/mL and 708.85 ± 0.66 µmol/mL at 40 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL of hydrolysate, respectively which is greater than BHT at 0.1 mg/mL and neokyotorphin at 1 mg/mL. The ABTS radical scavenging method revealed inhibition percentages are higher than 90% for hydrolysate concentration above 10 mg/mL which are higher than those obtained with BHT at 0.5 mg/mL. Finally, the Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) assay showed that the studied hydrolysate have a TAC comprised between that of BHT at 0.3 mg/mL and 0.1 mg/mL. Consequently, these important biological activities found in poultry cruor hydrolysate make it a new interesting alternative natural additive in food industry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

This study focuses on the enzymatic hydrolysis of hemoglobin, the main component of cruor that gives blood its red color in mammals. The antibacterial and antioxidant potentials of human hemoglobin hydrolysates were evaluated in comparison to bovine hemoglobin. The results showed strong antimicrobial activity of the peptide hydrolysates against six bacterial strains, independent of the initial substrate concentration level. The hydrolysates also showed strong antioxidant activity, as measured by four different tests. In addition, the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of the human and bovine hemoglobin hydrolysates showed little or no significant difference, with only the concentration level being the determining factor in their activity. The results of the mass spectrometry study showed the presence of a number of bioactive peptides, the majority of which have characteristics similar to those mentioned in the literature. New bioactive peptides were also identified in human hemoglobin, such as the antibacterial peptides PTTKTYFPHF (α37-46), FPTTKTYFPH (α36-45), TSKYR (α137-141), and STVLTSKYR (α133-141), as well as the antioxidant TSKYR (α137-141). According to these findings, human hemoglobin represents a promising source of bioactive peptides beneficial to the food or pharmaceutical industries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cruor, the main component responsible for the red color of mammalian blood, contains 90% haemoglobin, a protein considered to be a rich source of bioactive peptides. The aim of the present study is to assess the potential of human hemoglobin as a source of bioactive peptides, compared with bovine hemoglobin, which has been extensively studied in recent years. More specifically, the study focused on the α137–141 fragment of bovine haemoglobin (TSKYR), a small (653 Da) hydrophilic antimicrobial peptide. In this work, the potential of human hemoglobin to contain bioactive peptides was first investigated in silico in comparison with bovine hemoglobin-derived peptides using bioinformatics tools. The blast results showed a high identity, 88% and 85% respectively, indicating a high similarity between the α and β chains. Peptide Cutter software was used to predict cleavage sites during peptide hydrolysis, revealing major conservation in the number and location of cleavage sites between the two species, while highlighting some differences. Some peptides were conserved, notably our target peptide (TSKYR), while others were specific to each species. Secondly, the two types of hemoglobin were subjected to similar enzymatic hydrolysis conditions (23 °C, pH 3.5), which showed that the hydrolysis of human hemoglobin followed the same reaction mechanism as the hydrolysis of bovine hemoglobin, the 'zipper' mechanism. Concerning the peptide of interest, α137–141, the RP-UPLC analyses showed that its identification was not affected by the increase in the initial substrate concentration. Its production was rapid, with more than 60% of the total α137–141 peptide production achieved in just 30 min of hydrolysis, reaching peak production at 3 h. Furthermore, increasing the substrate concentration from 1% to 10% (w/v) resulted in a proportional increase in α137–141 production, with a maximum concentration reaching 687.98 ± 75.77 mg·L
−1 , approximately ten-fold higher than that obtained with a 1% (w/v) concentration. Finally, the results of the UPLC-MS/MS analysis revealed the identification of 217 unique peptides in bovine hemoglobin hydrolysate and 189 unique peptides in human hemoglobin hydrolysate. Of these, 57 peptides were strictly common to both species. This revealed the presence of several bioactive peptides in both cattle and humans. Although some had been known previously, new bioactive peptides were discovered in human hemoglobin, such as four antibacterial peptides (α37–46 PTTKTYFPHF, α36–45 FPTTKTYFPH, α137–141 TSKYR, and α133–141 STVLTSKYR), three opioid peptides (α137–141 TSKYR,β31–40 LVVYPWTQRF,β32–40, VVYPWTQRF), an ACE inhibitor (β129–135 KVVAGVA), an anticancer agent (β33–39 VVYPWTQ), and an antioxidant (α137–141 TSKYR). To the best of our knowledge, these peptides have never been found in human hemoglobin before. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Bioinformatics software, allowing the identification of peptides by the comparison of peptide fragmentation spectra obtained by mass spectrometry versus targeted databases or directly by de novo sequencing, is now mandatory in peptidomics/proteomics approaches. Programming the identification software requires specifying, among other things, the mass measurement accuracy of the instrument and the digestion enzyme used with the number of missed cleavages allowed. Moreover, these software algorithms are able to identify a large number of post-translational modifications (PTMs). However, peptide and PTM identifications are challenging in the agrofood field due to non-specific cleavage sites of physiological- or food-grade enzymes and the number and location of PTMs. In this study, we show the importance of customized software programming to obtain a better peptide and PTM identification rate in the agrofood field. A gelatine product and one industrial gelatine hydrolysate from three different sources (beef, pork, and fish), each digested by simulated gastrointestinal digestion, MS-grade trypsin, or both, were used to perform the comparisons. Two main points are illustrated: (i) the impact of the set-up of specific enzyme versus no specific enzyme use and (ii) the impact of a maximum of six PTMs allowed per peptide versus the standard of three. Prior knowledge of the composition of the raw proteins is an important asset for better identification of peptide sequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Lacticaseicin 30 is one of the five bacteriocins produced by the Gram-positive Lacticaseibacillus paracasei CNCM I-5369. This 111 amino acid bacteriocin is noteworthy for being active against Gram-negative bacilli including Escherichia coli strains resistant to colistin. Prediction of the lacticaseicin 30 structure using the Alphafold2 pipeline revealed a largely helical structure including five helix segments, which was confirmed by circular dichroism. To identify the structural requirements of the lacticaseicin 30 activity directed against Gram-negative bacilli, a series of variants, either shortened or containing point mutations, was heterologously produced in Escherichia coli and assayed for their antibacterial activity against a panel of target strains including Gram-negative bacteria and the Gram-positive Listeria innocua. Lacticaseicin 30 variants comprising either the N-terminal region (amino acids 1 to 39) or the central and C-terminal regions (amino acids 40 to 111) were prepared. Furthermore, mutations were introduced by site-directed mutagenesis to obtain ten bacteriocin variants E6G, T7P, E32G, T33P, T52P, D57G, A74P, Y78S, Y93S and A97P. Compared to lacticaseicin 30, the anti-Gram-negative activity of the N-terminal peptide and variants E32G, T33P and D57G remained almost unchanged, while that of the C-terminal peptide and variants E6G, T7P, T52P, A74P, Y78S, Y93S and A97P was significantly altered. Finally, the N-terminal region was further shortened to keep only the first 20 amino acid part that was predicted to include the first helix. The anti-Gram-negative activity of this truncated peptide was completely abolished. Overall, this study shows that activity of lacticaseicin 30, one of the rare Gram-positive bacteriocins inhibiting Gram-negative bacteria, requires at least two helices in the N-terminal region and that the C-terminal region carries amino acids playing a role in modulation of the activity. Taken together, these data will help to design forthcoming variants of lacticaseicin 30 as promising therapeutic agents to treat infections caused by Gram-negative bacilli. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP-IV) plays an essential role in glucose metabolism by inactivating incretins. In this context, food-protein-derived DPP-IV inhibitors are promising glycemic regulators which may act by preventing the onset of type 2 diabetes in personalized nutrition. In this study, the DPP-IV-inhibitory potential of seven proteins from diverse origins was compared for the first time in vitro and in vivo in rat plasma after the intestinal barrier (IB) passage of the indigested proteins. The DPP-IV-inhibitory potentials of bovine hemoglobin, caseins, chicken ovalbumin, fish gelatin, and pea proteins were determined in rat plasma thirty minutes after oral administration. In parallel, these proteins, together with bovine whey and gluten proteins, were digested using the harmonized INFOGEST protocol adapted for proteins. The DPP-IV half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC
50 ) was determined in situ using Caco-2 cells. The DPP-IV-inhibitory activity was also measured after IB passage using a Caco2/HT29-MTX mixed-cell model. The peptide profiles were analyzed using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC-MS/MS) with MS data bioinformatics management, and the IC50 of the identified peptides was predicted in silico. The in vitro and in vivo DPP-IV-inhibitory activity of the proteins differed according to their origin. Vegetable proteins and hemoglobin yielded the highest DPP-IV-inhibitory activity in vivo. However, no correlation was found between the in vivo and in vitro results. This may be partially explained by the differences between the peptidome analysis and the in silico predictions, as well as the study complexity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

This study investigated the antiradical and antioxidant potential of the three families of lipopeptides (i.e., surfactin, mycosubtilin, and plipastatin/fengycin) produced by Bacillus subtilis strains. The antiradical/antioxidant activities of highly purified lipopeptides were studied in acellular models using a 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, superoxide anion ( O 2. - ), hydrogen peroxide, (H
2 O2 ) and hydroxyl radical (HO. ). At a lipopeptide concentration of 500 mg.L−1 , the maximum inhibition of DPPH reached 22.88% (obtained for plipastatin). Moreover, the scavenging effects of O 2. - , H2 O2 , and HO. at the highest concentration tested (250 mg.L−1 ) were found to be 6, 21, and 3% for surfactin, 19, 9, and 15% for mycosubtilin, 21, 18, and 59% for plipastatin, 21, 31, and 61% for the mixture of surfactin/plipastatin, and 13, 16, and 15% for the mixture of surfactin/mycosubtilin, respectively. These results showed that plipastatin was the best candidate due to its antioxidant activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

This study aimed to examine the ability of ulvan, a water-soluble polysaccharide from the green seaweed Ulva fasciata , to provide protection and induce resistance in wheat against the hemibiotrophic fungus Zymoseptoria tritici. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) analysis indicated that ulvan is mainly composed of unsaturated monosaccharides (rhamnose, rhamnose-3-sulfate, and xylose) and numerous uronic acid residues. In the greenhouse, foliar application of ulvan at 10 mg.ml
–1 2 days before fungal inoculation reduced disease severity and pycnidium density by 45 and 50%, respectively. Ulvan did not exhibit any direct antifungal activity toward Z. tritici , neither in vitro nor in planta. However, ulvan treatment significantly reduced substomatal colonization and pycnidium formation within the mesophyll of treated leaves. Molecular assays revealed that ulvan spraying elicits, but does not prime, the expression of genes involved in several wheat defense pathways, including pathogenesis-related proteins (β-1,3-endoglucanase and chitinase), reactive oxygen species metabolism (oxalate oxidase), and the octadecanoid pathway (lipoxygenase and allene oxide synthase), while no upregulation was recorded for gene markers of the phenylpropanoid pathway (phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and chalcone synthase). Interestingly, the quantification of 83 metabolites from major chemical families using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) in both non-infectious and infectious conditions showed no substantial changes in wheat metabolome upon ulvan treatment, suggesting a low metabolic cost associated with ulvan-induced resistance. Our findings provide evidence that ulvan confers protection and triggers defense mechanisms in wheat against Z. tritici without major modification of the plant physiology.

Vibrio bacteria, and particularly members of the Harveyi clade, are the causative agents of vibriosis. This disease is responsible for mass mortality events and important economic losses on aquaculture farms. Improvements in surveillance and diagnosis are needed to successfully manage vibriosis outbreaks. 16S rRNA gene sequencing is generally considered to be the gold standard for bacterial identification but the cost and long processing time make it difficult to apply for routine identification. In contrast, MALDI-TOF MS offers rapid diagnosis and is commonly used in veterinary laboratories today. The major limiting factor for using this technique is the low environmental bacterial diversity in the commonly available databases. Here, we demonstrate that the sole use of the commercially available Bruker BioTyper database is not fully adequate for identifying Vibrio bacteria isolated from aquaculture farms. We therefore developed a new in-house database named Luvibase, composed of 23 reference MALDI-TOF mass spectra profiles obtained from Vibrio collection strains, mostly belonging to the Harveyi clade. The comparison of the accuracy of MALDI-TOF MS profiling and 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed a lack of resolution for 16S rRNA gene sequencing. In contrast, MALDI-TOF MS profiling proved to be a more reliable tool for resolving species-level variations within the Harveyi clade. Finally, combining the Luvibase with the Bruker ver.9.0.0.0 database, led to successful identification of 47 Vibrio isolates obtained from moribund abalone, seabass and oysters. Thus, the use of Luvibase allow for increased confidence in identifying Vibrio species belonging to the Harveyi clade. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Lignin is the second most abundant polymer after cellulose in lignocellulosic biomass. Its aromatic composition and recalcitrant nature make its valorization a major challenge for obtaining low molecular weight aromatics compounds with high value‐added from the enzymatic depolymerization of industrial lignins. The oxidation reaction of lignin polymer using laccases alone remains inefficient. Therefore, researches are focused on the use of a laccase‐mediator system (LMS) to facilitate enzymatic depolymerization. Until today, the LMS system was studied using water‐soluble lignin only (commercial lignins, modified lignins, or lignin model compounds). This work reports a study of three LMS systems to depolymerize the three major industrial lignins (organosolv lignin, Kraft lignin, and sodium lignosulfonate). We show that an enzymatic depolymerization of these lignins can be achieved by LMS using laccase from Trametes versicolor, 2,2′‐azino‐bis(3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid) diammonium salt as mediator and a cosolvent (25% of 1,4‐dioxane) to enhance the solubilization of lignins.

- Abstract
Here we show that Bacillus pumilus ICVB403 recently isolated from copepod eggs is able to produce, after 48–72 h of growth in Landy medium, extracellular inhibitory compounds, which are active against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) ATCC 43300, MRSA-S1, Staphylococcus epidermidis 11EMB, Staphylococcus warneri 27EMB, and Staphylococcus hominis 13EMB. Moreover, these extracellular inhibitory compound(s) were able to potentiate erythromycin against the aforementioned staphylococci. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of erythromycin was reduced from 32 μg/mL to 8 μg/mL for MRSA ATCC 43300 and MRSA SA-1 strains, and from 32–64 μg/mL to 4 μg/mL for S. epidermidis 11EMB and S. hominis 13EMB strains. The genome sequencing and analysis of B. pumilus ICVB403 unveiled 3.666.195 nucleotides contained in 22 contigs with a G + C ratio of 42.0%, 3.826 coding sequences, and 73 RNAs. In silico analysis guided identification of two putative genes coding for synthesis of surfactin A, a lipopeptide with 7 amino acids, and for a circular bacteriocin belonging to the circularin A/uberolysin family, respectively.

- Abstract
To compensate for their amino acid auxotrophy, lactobacilli have developed the ability to hydrolyze proteins present in their environment. This proteolytic activity not only generates the free amino acids needed by the bacteria, but also a large variety of peptides, some of which are endowed with biological activities. These so-called "bioactive peptides" (BAPs) are interesting from a nutrition and healthcare perspective. The use of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) such as lactobacilli is an effective strategy for production and valorization of new BAPs. The proteolytic activity of lactobacilli is exerted in a strain- and species-dependent manner: each species exhibits different proteinase content, leading to a large variety of proteolytic activities. This underlines the high potential of Lactobacillus strains to produce novel hydrolysates and BAPs of major interest. This review aims at discussing the potential of different Lactobacillus species to release BAPs from fermentation media and processes. Strategies used for peptide production are presented. Additionally, we propose a methodology to select the most promising Lactobacillus strains as sources of BAPs. This methodology combines conventional approaches and in silico analyses.

ACARTIA tonsa ,BACTERIAL colonies ,VIBRIO anguillarum - Abstract
Copepods represent a major source of food for many aquatic species of commercial interest for aquaculture such as mysis shrimp and early stages of fishes. For the purpose of this study, the culturable mesophilic bacterial flora colonizing Acartia tonsa copepod eggs was isolated and identified. A total of 175 isolates were characterized based on their morphological and biochemical traits. The majority of these isolates (70%) were Gram-negative bacteria. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) was used for rapid identification of bacterial isolates. Here, 58% of isolates were successfully identified at the genus level and among them, 54% were identified at the species level. These isolates belong to 12 different genera and 29 species. Five strains, identified as Bacillus pumilus, named 18 COPS, 35A COPS, 35R COPS, 38 COPS, and 40A COPS, showed strong antagonisms against several potential fish pathogens including Vibrio alginolyticus, V. anguillarum, Listeria monocytogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus. Furthermore, using a differential approach, we show that the antimicrobial activity of the 35R COPS strain is linked primarily to the production of antimicrobial compounds of the amicoumacin family, as demonstrated by the specific UV-absorbance and the MS/MS fragmentation patterns of these compounds.

- Abstract
Innovations in novel enzyme discoveries impact upon a wide range of industries for which biocatalysis and biotransformations represent a great challenge, i.e., food industry, polymers and chemical industry. Key tools and technologies, such as bioinformatics tools to guide mutant library design, molecular biology tools to create mutants library, microfluidics/microplates, parallel miniscale bioreactors and mass spectrometry technologies to create high-throughput screening methods and experimental design tools for screening and optimization, allow to evolve the discovery, development and implementation of enzymes and whole cells in (bio)processes. These technological innovations are also accompanied by the development and implementation of clean and sustainable integrated processes to meet the growing needs of chemical, pharmaceutical, environmental and biorefinery industries. This review gives an overview of the benefits of high-throughput screening approach from the discovery and engineering of biocatalysts to cell culture for optimizing their production in integrated processes and their extraction/purification.

- Abstract
We studied here the yeast content of poultry feces, collected randomly from a French farm located in the north of the country. Thus, 81 yeast colonies were isolated and clustered into 22 distinct groups using the rep-PCR method. A single colony was taken from each group and identified using biochemical (ID 32C system) and molecular (sequencing of the D1/D2 domain of 26S rDNA and ITS1-5.8-ITS2 rDNA region) methods. Both methods led to the identification of Candida famata species. One isolate of C. famata strains, named strain Y5, was further studied for its cytotoxicity, adhesion, and surface properties, hemolytic activity, and its survival in simulated gastric and intestine environments. The data obtained advocate the probiotic potential of this isolate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Although the physiological properties of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) are relatively well known, the phenotype of the component brain capillary endothelial cells (BCECs) has yet to be described in detail. Likewise, the molecular mechanisms that govern the establishment and maintenance of the BBB are largely unknown. Proteomics can be used to assess quantitative changes in protein levels and identify proteins involved in the molecular pathways responsible for cellular differentiation. Using the well-established in vitro BBB model developed in our laboratory, we performed a differential nano- LC MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS study of Triton X-100-soluble protein species from bovine BCECs displaying either limited BBB functions or BBB functions re-induced by glial cells. Due to the heterogeneity of the crude extract, we increased identification yields by applying a repeatable, reproducible fractionation process based on the proteins' relative hydrophobicity. We present proteomic and biochemical evidence to show that tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) and Eps15 homology domain-containing protein 1(EDH1) are over-expressed by bovine BCECs after the re-induction of BBB properties. We discuss the impact of these findings on current knowledge of endothelial and BBB permeability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Brain capillary endothelial cells (BCECs) form the physiological basis of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The barrier function is (at least in part) due to well-known proteins such as transporters, tight junctions and metabolic barrier proteins (e.g. monoamine oxidase, gamma glutamyltranspeptidase and P-glycoprotein). Our previous 2-dimensional gel proteome analysis had identified a large number of proteins and revealed the major role of dynamic cytoskeletal remodelling in the differentiation of bovine BCECs. The aim of the present study was to elaborate a reference proteome of Triton X-100-soluble species from bovine BCECs cultured in the wellestablished in vitro BBB model developed in our laboratory. Results: A total of 215 protein spots (corresponding to 130 distinct proteins) were identified by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis, whereas over 350 proteins were identified by a shotgun approach. We classified around 430 distinct proteins expressed by bovine BCECs. Our large-scale gene expression analysis enabled the correction of mistakes referenced into protein databases (e.g. bovine vinculin) and constitutes valuable evidence for predictions based on genome annotation. Conclusions: Elaboration of a reference proteome constitutes the first step in creating a gene expression database dedicated to capillary endothelial cells displaying BBB characteristics. It improves of our knowledge of the BBB and the key proteins in cell structures, cytoskeleton organization, metabolism, detoxification and drug resistance. Moreover, our results emphasize the need for both appropriate experimental design and correct interpretation of proteome datasets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The identification of phosphopeptides is currently a challenge when they are part of a complex matrix of peptides, such as a milk protein enzymatic hydrolysate. This challenge increases with both the number of phosphorylation sites on the phosphopeptides and their amino acid length. Here, this paper reports a four-phase strategy from an enzymatic casein hydrolysate before a mass spectrometry analysis in order to enhance the identification of phosphopeptides and phosphosites: (i) the control protein hydrolysate, (ii) a two-step enzymatic dephosphorylation of the latter, allowing for the almost total dephosphorylation of peptides, (iii) a one-step enzymatic dephosphorylation, allowing for the partial dephosphorylation of the peptides and (iv) an additional endoGluC enzymatic hydrolysis, allowing for the cleavage of long-size peptides into shorter ones. The reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC-MS/MS) analyses of hydrolysates that underwent this four-phase strategy allowed for the identification of 28 phosphorylation sites (90%) out of the 31 referenced in UniprotKB/Swiss-Prot (1 June 2021), compared to 17 sites (54%) without the latter. The alpha-S2 casein phosphosites, referenced by their similarity in the UniProt database, were experimentally identified, whereas pSer148, pThr166 and pSer187 from a multiphosphorylated long-size kappa-casein were not. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD027132. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Protein hydrolysates are, in general, mixtures of amino acids and small peptides able to supply the body with the constituent elements of proteins in a directly assimilable form. They are therefore characterised as products with high nutritional value. However, hydrolysed proteins display an unpleasant bitter taste and possible off-flavours which limit the field of their nutrition applications. The successful identification and characterisation of bitter protein hydrolysates and, more precisely, the peptides responsible for this unpleasant taste are essential for nutritional research. Due to the large number of peptides generated during hydrolysis, there is an urgent need to develop methods in order to rapidly characterise the bitterness of protein hydrolysates. In this article, two enzymatic hydrolysis kinetics of micellar milk caseins were performed for 9 h. For both kinetics, the optimal time to obtain a hydrolysate with appreciable organoleptic qualities is 5 h. Then, the influence of the presence or absence of peptides and their intensity over time compared to the different sensory characteristics of hydrolysates was studied using heat maps, random forests and regression trees. A total of 22 peptides formed during the enzymatic proteolysis of micellar caseins and influencing the bitterness the most were identified. These methods represent simple and efficient tools to identify the peptides susceptibly responsible for bitterness intensity and predict the main sensory feature of micellar casein enzymatic hydrolysates.

CHEMICAL inhibitors ,AMINO acid sequence - Abstract
Human inter-α-inhibitor (IαI) is a plasma serine-proteinase inhibitor. It consists of three polypeptide chains covalently linked by a glycosaminoglycan : a light one named bikunin, carrying the antiproteinase activity and two heavy chains H1 and H2. The amino acid sequences of these heavy chains are highly similar; however when IαI is digested by neutrophil proteinases, their proteolytic susceptibility strongly differs [Balduyck, M., Piva, F., Mizon, C., Maes, P., Malki, N., Gressier, B., Michalski, C. & Mizon, J. (1993) Human leucocyte elastase (HLE) preferentially cleaves the heavy chain H2 of inter-α-trypsin inhibitor (ITI), Biol. Chem. Hoppe-Seyler 374, 895-901]. We mapped the disulphide topology of the IαI heavy chains in order to investigate whether or not disulphide bonds might be responsible for their differential susceptibility to proteolysis. Using amino acid sequencing and mass spectrometry analysis, we demonstrate that the H1 heavy chain contains one free thiol group and two disulphide bridges of which one links two largely spaced cysteine residues (Cys239 and Cys511). Thus H1 is clearly different from H2 which contains two disulphide bonds between closely located cysteine residues. However, using immunoprint analysis, we show that, when IαI is subjected to a limited digestion by Staphylococcus aureus V-8 proteinase, the two polypeptide chains are similarly susceptible to proteolysis. This enzyme preferentially cleaves the IαI heavy chains from their N-terminal extremity. These results are consistent with the circular dichroism (CD) analysis, suggesting that the conformation of the polypeptide backbone of H1 is not very different from that of H2, with calculated α-helicities of 24 % and 28 %, respectively. The CD measurements reveal that the aromatic amino acids of H1 and H2 are in a different asymmetrical environment. Inside the IαI molecule, the heavy chains are linked to the glycosaminoglycan chain via... [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Like their owners, dogs and cats are more and more affected by overweight and obesity-related problems and interest in functional pet foods is growing sharply. Through numerous studies, fish protein hydrolysates have proved their worth to prevent and manage obesity-related comorbidities like diabetes. In this work, a human in vitro static simulated gastrointestinal digestion model was adapted to the dog which allowed us to demonstrate the promising effects of a tilapia byproduct hydrolysate on the regulation of food intake and glucose metabolism. Promising effects on intestinal hormones secretion and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory activity were evidenced. We identify new bioactive peptides able to stimulate cholecystokinin (CCK) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secretions, and to inhibit the DPP-IV activity after a transport study through a Caco-2 cell monolayer.

The goal of this study was to determine the impact of industrial processes on the digestion of six milk protein matrices using the harmonized INFOGEST in vitro static digestion protocol. First, this method was optimized to simple protein matrices using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to compare the intestinal protein hydrolysis obtained with increasing quantities of pancreatin. Similar results were achieved with the originally required pancreatin amount (trypsin activity of 100 U.mL
−1 ) and with a quantity of pancreatin equivalent to a trypsin activity of 27.3 U.mL−1 , which was thus used to perform the in vitro digestion of the milk matrices. Molecular weight profiles, peptide heterogeneity from LC-MS/MS data, calcium, free amino acid, and peptide concentrations were determined in the gastric and intestinal phases to compare the milk protein digests. Results showed that the industrial process affected not only the protein distribution of the matrices but also most likely the protein structures. Indeed, differences arose in terms of peptide populations generated when the caseins were reticulated or when their calcium concentrations were reduced. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Enzymatic hydrolysis of food proteins generally changes the techno-functional, nutritional, and organoleptic properties of hydrolyzed proteins. As a result, protein hydrolysates have an important interest in the food industries. However, they tend to be characterized by a bitter taste and some off-flavors, which limit their use in the food industry. These tastes and aromas come from peptides, amino acids, and volatile compounds generated during hydrolysis. In this article, sixteen more or less bitter enzymatic hydrolysates produced from a milk protein liquid fraction enriched in micellar caseins using commercially available, food-grade proteases were subjected to a sensory analysis using a trained and validated sensory panel combined to a peptidomics approach based on the peptide characterization by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and bioinformatics software. The comparison between the sensory characteristics and the principal components of the principal component analysis (PCA) of mass spectrometry data reveals that peptidomics constitutes a convenient, valuable, fast, and economic intermediate method to evaluating the bitterness of enzymatic hydrolysates, as a trained sensory panel can do it.

Bovine cruor, a slaughterhouse waste, was mainly composed of hemoglobin, a protein rich in antibacterial and antioxidant peptides after its hydrolysis. In the current context of food safety, such bioactive peptides derived from enzymatic hydrolysis of hemoglobin represent potential promising preservatives for the food sector. In this work, the hemoglobin hydrolysis to produce bioactive peptides was performed in a regulated pH medium without the use of chemical solvents and by an eco-efficient process: electrodialysis with bipolar membrane (EDBM). Bipolar/monopolar (anionic or cationic) configuration using the H
+ and OH− generated by the bipolar membranes to regulate the pH was investigated. The aim of this study was to present and identify the bioactive peptides produced by EDBM in comparison with conventional hydrolysis and to identify their biological activity. The use of the EDBM for the enzymatic hydrolysis of hemoglobin has allowed for the production and identification of 17 bioactive peptides. Hydrolysates obtained by EDBM showed an excellent antimicrobial activity against six strains, antioxidant activity measured by four different tests and for the first time anti-fungal activities against five yeasts and mold strains. Consequently, this enzymatic hydrolysis carried out in regulated pH medium with bipolar membranes could provide bioactive peptides presenting antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant interest.

Neokyotorphin (α137-141) is recognized as an antimicrobial peptide and a natural meat preservative. It is produced by conventional enzymatic hydrolysis of bovine hemoglobin, a major component of cruor, a by-product of slaughterhouses. However, during conventional hydrolysis, chemical agents are necessary to adjust and regulate the pH of the protein solution and the mineral salt content of the final hydrolysate is consequently high. To produce this peptide of interest without chemical agents and with a low salt concentration, electrodialysis with bipolar membrane (EDBM), an electromembrane process recognized as a green process, with two different membrane configurations (cationic (MCP) and anionic (AEM) membranes) was investigated. Hydrolysis in EDBM showed the same enzymatic mechanism, "Zipper", and allowed the generation of α137-141 in the same concentration as observed in conventional hydrolysis (control). EDBM-MCP allowed the production of hydrolysates containing a low concentration of mineral salts but with fouling formation on MCP, while EDBM-AEM allowed the production of hydrolysates without fouling but with a similar salt concentration than the control. To the best of our knowledge, this was the first time that EDBM was demonstrated as a feasible and innovative technology to produce peptide hydrolysates from enzymatic hydrolysis.

Pseudomonas species are metabolically robust, with capacity to produce secondary metabolites including cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs). Herein we conducted a chemical analysis of a crude CLP extract from the cocoyam rhizosphere-derived biocontrol strain Pseudomonas sp. COW3. We performed in silico analyses on its whole genome, and conducted in vitro antagonistic assay using the strain and purified CLPs. Via LC-MS and NMR, we elucidated the structures of four novel members of the bananamide group, named bananamides D-G. Besides variability in fatty acid length, bananamides D-G differ from previously described bananamides A-C and MD-0066 by the presence of a serine and aspartic acid at position 6 and 2, respectively. In addition, bananamide G has valine instead of isoleucine at position 8. Kendrick mass defect (KMD) allowed the assignment of molecular formulae to bananamides D and E. We unraveled a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase cluster banA, banB and banC which encodes the novel bananamide derivatives. Furthermore, COW3 displayed antagonistic activity and mycophagy against Pythium myriotylum, while it mainly showed mycophagy on Pyricularia oryzae. Purified bananamides D-G inhibited the growth of P. myriotylum and P. oryzae and caused hyphal distortion. Our study shows the complementarity of chemical analyses and genome mining in the discovery and elucidation of novel CLPs. In addition, structurally diverse bananamides differ in their antimicrobial activity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
