Problems solved by technology

A bigger problem is the unavoidable formation of dichloro compounds, such as 1,2- and 1,3-dichloropropanol, which have been shown to be carcinogenic in animal feeding studies
However, in contrast to acid hydrolysis, enzymatic processes are often incomplete and can result in bitter partial hydrolysates; the level of bitterness increases with increasing degree of hydrolysis, reaches a maximum, and then decreases as hydrolysis progresses

Embodiment 1

[0120] Example 1 - Peptidases from six Basidiomycetes

[0121] Culture of Basidiomycetes

[0122] During processing, all media and equipment are autoclaved and standard aseptic technique is used before use. Pre-cultivation of Basidiomycetes (Table 2) at 150 rpm and 24°C in a standard nutrient medium (30 g / L glucose monohydrate, 3 g / L yeast extract, 4.5 g / L asparagine monohydrate, 0.5g / L MgSO 4 , 1.5g / L KH 2 PO 4 , 1mL trace element solution, pH6.0[0.08g / LFeCl 3 , 0.09g / L ZnSO 4 wxya 2 O, 0.005g / L CuSO 4 x5 2 O, 0.027g / L MnSO 4 , 0.4g / L Titriplex III]) for seven days.

[0123] 20 mL of mycelial culture was separated by centrifugation (10 min, 3000xg, 4°C) and replaced with 20 mL of mineral salt medium (MM) lacking additional carbon and nitrogen sources (0.5 g / L MgSO 4 , 1.5g / LKH 2 PO 4 , 1mL trace element solution, pH 6.0) and washed twice. For maincultures, 250 mL of fresh MM was inoculated with 20 mL of prewashed mycelium.

Embodiment 2

[0128] Example 2 - Enzyme Preparation Using Grifola Phyllostachys

[0129] After 6 days of cultivation with 4% gluten, the Gfr culture was filtered and the extracellular enzyme-containing supernatant (200 mL) was precipitated with 800 mL of ethanol (96%), stored at -20°C for 3 hours, and then centrifuged at 12,000xg for 20 minutes . Resuspend an aliquot of the pellet in 0.1M K 2 HPO 4 / KH 2 PO 4 buffer (pH 6.0) for 30 minutes at 4°C, and the activity of the supernatant was assayed.

[0130] Most of the initially present hydrolytic activity was restored, indicating that this method yielded useful enzyme concentrates.

Embodiment 3

[0131] Embodiment 3-hydrolysis experiment

[0132] Suspend 0.5 g of gluten in 20 mL of 0.1 M K 2 HPO 4 / KH 2 PO 4 18.9 kU of peptidase precipitate obtained from Pfl (Pleurotus florida) was added to the buffer (pH 6.0), and the sample was incubated at 40° C., 110 rpm, in a water bath for 18 hours. The samples were centrifuged at 3000 xg for 15 minutes at 4°C. Blanks were prepared with heat-inactivated enzyme preparations. 5 mL of supernatant was used for Kjeldahl analysis and 7 μL of supernatant for AA-TLC. To visualize proteolysis, SDS-PAGE of samples was performed.

[0133] The analytical evidence indicated a gradual enzymatic hydrolysis of the difficult substrate wheat glutenin.

Abstract

The present invention relates to peptidase enzymes derived from the mycelia of Basidiomycetes, in particular to gluten-specific peptidase enzymes, to their method of production and to their use in thehydrolysis of proteins.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to peptidase enzymes derived from the mycelia of the class Basidiomycetes, in particular to gluten-specific peptidase enzymes, to methods for their production and to their use in proteolysis use. Background of the invention [0002] Hydrolysis of vegetable proteins represents one of the oldest food biotechnology processes. In Asian countries, the experience has been passed down for centuries to hydrolyze soybean proteins to produce especially soy sauce, a soybean sauce and common condiment that has become almost synonymous with Chinese food in the Western world. In these lengthy, sometimes perennial processes, the desired peptidolytic activity is derived from the continuous fermentation of Aspergilli, lactic acid bacteria and yeasts grown in their respective plant substrates. [0003] Western countries mimic this process with wheat, rice, or peanut proteins, and use acid hydrolysis instead of enzymatic hydrolysis, suc...
