In this study, we applied virtual screening to discover a novel angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibitory peptides from milk casein. One potential hit was identified based on docking scores, subsequently confirmed by activity studies in vitro （IC50=20.85 μmol L-1）. The proposed peptide in this study contains a unique sequence, Lys-Val-Leu-Ile-Leu-Ala. Moreover, we performed the docking studies to understand the binding mode between the enzyme and peptide hit.展开更多

No significance was observed on ACE inhibitory activity of products prepared by spay drying and freeze drying （P〉0.05）. Spay drying was the best drying process for practical industry production. The inlet temperature ranged from 140℃ to 160℃ and the exit temperature ranged from 70 ℃ to 90 ℃ during the spay drying process. Under the optimal conditions, scale-up of angiotensin converted enzyme inhibitory peptide from 1 L to 10 L and the experiment was successively conducted. Peptide yield was 29% and half inhibitory concentration （IC50） was 0.53 g. L^-1.展开更多

The pharmacophore hypothesis selected has five features(one negative ionizable region,one hydrogen bond donor,one hydrogen bond acceptor and two hydrophobic functional groups). Additionally,ACE inhibitory hexapeptide previously obtained from silkworm pupae protein was optimized to target the ACE based on the selected pharmacophore. The results suggest that tri-peptide(thr-val-phe) may be structural determinant of ACE activity. Docking studies further provided confidence for the validity of the selected pharmacophore model to perform structure optimization of the ACE inhibitory peptide.展开更多
