Dietary proteins are known to contain bioactive peptides that are released during digestion. Endogenous proteins secreted into the gastrointestinal tract represent a quantitatively greater supply of protein to the gut lumen than those of dietary origin. Many of these endogenous proteins are digested in the gastrointestinal tract but the possibility that these are also a source of bioactive pept...

Suitable alternatives are made for damaged or diseased organs and tissues in tissue engineering by combining cellular and molecular biology with materials and mechanical engineering. Fibrin is a critical blood component responsible for homeostasis, used extensively as a biopolymer scaffold in tissue engineering. This study summarizes the latest developments in organ and tissue regeneration usin...

Seafood-based material has been impressive as a promising proteins source for food process. Hydrolysates from seafood hydrolysis, containing essential amino acids and short-chain peptides human health, are in high nutritive value. Selected properties of the hydrolysis presented this review, focusing on enzymatic acid techniques. Advantages, disadvantages optimal conditions also briefly summariz...

Food industry aims to develop novel protein-based emulsifiers from sustainable sources (e.g. plants, seaweed/microalgae, microbial, and insects) satisfy the clean-label demand by consumers. Enzymatic hydrolysis releases peptides with enhanced surface properties compared parent alternative proteins. Traditionally, a trial-and-error top-down approach, which requires extensive costs in screening a...

Banana is one of the most important crops, providing multiple benefits. Although it has been widely studied for its health benefits, little information can be found about proteins. This study determined antihypertensive and antioxidant activities crude, purified, hydrolyzed protein extracts from ‘Señorita’ banana pulp. Crude proteins were extracted using Tris-HCl buffer purified through ammoniu...

Flow chemistry has emerged as a powerful method for on-demand chemical synthesis and modification of peptides proteins. Herein, we discuss the characteristics flow how they are applied to various aspects peptide chemistry. We highlight recent advances in automated flow-based synthesis, which extend length routinely accessible single-domain proteins allow collection time-resolved data. Applicati...

The separation of ampholytic components according to isoelectric point has played an important role in isolating, reducing complexity and improving peptide and protein detection. This brief review outlines the basics of isoelectric focusing, including a summary of the historical achievements and considerations in experimental design. Derivative methodologies of isoelectric focusing are also dis...

In this review we highlight recent accomplishments in the design of materials from proteins and peptides. Examples include hydrogels made from aggregating designed β-hairpin peptides, whose physical properties respond to small changes in the amino acid composition of the peptide; materials that combine different segments of natural elastomeric proteins - such as elastin, resilin, silk fibroin w...

This review summarizes applications of CEC for the analysis of proteins and peptides. This "hybrid" technique is useful for the analysis of a broad spectrum of proteins and peptides and is a complementary approach to liquid chromatographic and capillary electrophoretic analysis. All modes of CEC are described--granular packed columns, monolithic stationary phases as well as open-tubular CEC. At...
