The fermentation‐time dependent proteolysis profile and peptidomic analysis of fermented soybean curd

Abstract

The proteolysis and peptidomic profiles and potential bioactivities of fermented soybean curd (furu) during fermentation were studied. The degree of protein hydrolysis (DH) and peptide content significantly increased with fermentation time (p < 0.05), and reached the highest levels after ripening for 90 days. The variety and abundance of bioactive peptides in furu samples were fermentation-time dependent, and furu ripening for 30 and 90 days showed the highest similarity. An ACE-inhibitor and antioxidant peptides were the two main bioactive peptide components, and their abundance and bioactivities exhibited a significant increase with fermentation and reached the maximum levels at 90 days. All these results indicated that microbial fermentation is an effective way to obtain bioactive peptides with soy-based fermented products, and their effects on health might be explored in future studies.Practical Application: This work indicated that microbial fermentation is an effective way to obtain bioactive peptides with soy-based fermented products.

Identification and virtual screening of novel anti-inflammatory peptides from broccoli fermented by Lactobacillus strains

“…And there are differences in strains, L. plantarum A3 fermentation than L. rhamnosus ATCC7469 fermentation is more obvious. Wei et al ( 39 ) had similar research results to ours. The diversity and abundance of bioactive peptides increased significantly after fermentation of their furu samples, probably because most of the enzymes secreted during fermentation degraded the proteins to produce more bioactive peptides.…”

Lentils protein isolate as a fermenting substrate for the production of bioactive peptides by lactic acid bacteria and neglected yeast species

“…Due to the low sugar content and to promote microbial growth and activity, resultant dough was supplemented with 1% (w w −1 ) of glucose before fermenting with LAB and yeast starters. Proteolysis is fermentation‐time dependent and longer fermentation maximizes BPs release (Wei et al., 2021 ). Consequently, we monitored RLPI dough fermentation at 30°C for 8 days.…”

Effect of radio frequency, ultrasound, microwave‐assisted papain, and alcalase hydrolysis on the structure, antioxidant activity, and peptidomic profile of Rosa roxburghii Tratt. seed protein

“…Wei et al. (2021) studied the proteolytic and peptidomic characteristics of fermented tofu during fermentation. Zhang et al.…”

“…Currently peptidomic analyses of protein hydrolysates have focused on the effect of fermentation and hydrolysis time on the peptidome. Wei et al (2021) studied the proteolytic and peptidomic characteristics of fermented tofu during fermentation. Zhang et al (2021) examined the peptidomic pattern of alcalase hydrolysates of Auxenochlorella pyrenoidosa protein and found that the enhanced antioxidant properties exhibited by longer hydrolysis times were attributed to the production of shorter peptides.…”
