Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a tuna-derived antioxidant peptide and an ACE inhibitory peptide, as well as a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Free radicals are byproducts of cellular metabolism. Furthermore, certain adverse external factors and lifestyle influences can stimulate the body to produce large amounts of free radicals. Free radicals have a dual nature. Under normal circumstances, free radicals generated in the body are maintained in a harmless dynamic equilibrium by the body's own antioxidant enzyme system. However, when the body develops pathological changes or metabolic disorders, overoxidation occurs, and excessive free radicals can damage DNA, proteins, and cellular structures. Reactive oxygen species and free radicals are also associated with aging. Furthermore, the occurrence of some diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, inflammation, and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease, is associated with excessive free radicals or a decreased ability to scavenge them. Therefore, people are increasingly realizing that to reduce the damage caused by free radicals, in addition to relying on the body's own scavenging system, it is also necessary to identify and explore exogenous free radical scavengers. Commonly used chemically synthesized antioxidants are potentially harmful and toxic to humans and animals. Furthermore, antioxidant active substances such as vitamin C, polyphenols, and flavonoids are unstable and susceptible to air oxidation and thermal decomposition. Antioxidant peptides have attracted attention due to their safety, effectiveness, stability, and ease of absorption. Currently, antioxidant peptides are mainly obtained from soybeans, corn, milk, aquatic animals, etc.
[0003] Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) is a key enzyme in regulating blood pressure, contributing to elevated blood pressure. The development of hypertension is primarily associated with overactivation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and disruption of the kallikrein-kinin system (KKS). ACE is generally believed to play a key role in regulating the RAAS and KKS systems, influencing blood pressure levels.
[0004] In the RAAS system, the juxtaglomerular apparatus secretes renin hydrolase into the bloodstream, breaking down angiotensinogen secreted by the liver into type I angiotensin Asn-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe-His-Leu (SEQ ID NO. 7). ACE, by releasing His-Leu from the inactive type I angiotensin, further degrades it into type II angiotensin Asn-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe (SEQ ID NO. 8), a vasoconstrictor. Type II angiotensin is one of the main contributors to elevated blood pressure. In the KKS, bradykininogen is hydrolyzed by kallikrein to form bradykinin Arg-Pro-Pro-Gly-Phe-Ser-Pro-Phe-Arg (SEQ ID NO. 9). ACE catalyzes the degradation of bradykinin, removing two amino acid residues at its carboxyl terminus, rendering it inactive and leading to elevated blood pressure. ACE inhibitory peptides can effectively prevent the increase in blood pressure by inhibiting ACE activity and interfering with the regulatory function of ACE in RAAS and KKS.
[0005] In recent years, chemically prepared antioxidant and ACE inhibitors have developed rapidly, but their toxic side effects have significantly restricted their application. Studies have shown that a large number of natural extracts possess antioxidant and ACE inhibitory activity, with fish, shrimp, and shellfish peptides, soybean peptides, and peanut peptides showing particular effectiveness. Food protein-derived antioxidant and ACE inhibitory peptides play an important role in these fields due to their high specificity, low toxicity, relative ease of synthesis, and suitability as carriers for other molecules. Food protein-derived antioxidant and ACE inhibitory peptides are widely available.
[0006] Tuna, also known as bluefin tuna, belongs to the class Osteichthyes, order Pereiformes, and family Scombridae. It is found in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans and is a highly migratory oceanic fish. Commercially valuable tuna species include bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus), yellowfin tuna (Thunnus salbacares), Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus), and skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis). The annual global catch of bluefin tuna is approximately 6 million tons, accounting for one-tenth of the international seafood trade, making it a key commercial fish species in the ocean. Tuna processing primarily focuses on sashimi and canning, with the remaining parts discarded as a by-product, resulting in significant waste. Furthermore, there are currently no reports on the preparation of antioxidant and ACE inhibitory peptides from tuna skin. Summary of the Invention

[0049] A large number of experimental studies have shown that hydrophobic amino acids (such as methionine, isoleucine, leucine, proline, valine and other amino acid residues) are considered to be the reason why active peptides have antioxidant effects. It is generally believed that active peptides with aromatic amino acids (such as tyrosine and phenylalanine) at the C and N termini, aliphatic amino acids (such as serine, histidine, threonine, leucine, glycine, lysine), and hydrophobic amino acids (such as leucine) are considered to be the reason why active peptides have ACE inhibitory effects.
[0050] Example 1
[0051] (1) Take tuna skin, add 0.05 mol / L NaOH solution, add tuna skin and NaOH solution in a mass ratio of 1:10, soak for 1.5 hours, and then wash with running water until neutral; then add 0.05 mol / L hydrochloric acid (the mass ratio of tuna skin and hydrochloric acid is 1:10), soak for 2 hours, and then wash with running water until neutral, drain and beat, place the slurry in a constant temperature water bath at 60°C, centrifuge at 10000 r / min for 20 minutes after 5 hours, and then take the supernatant and concentrate to obtain tuna skin collagen extract.
[0052] (2) Add pancreatic enzyme to the tuna skin collagen extract (the amount of pancreatic enzyme added is 3% of the protein mass in the tuna skin collagen extract), keep warm and shake at pH 8.0 and 50°C for 4 hours, and inactivate the enzyme in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes after the reaction. Filter the extract and centrifuge it at a speed of 10,000 r / min for 10 minutes. The supernatant is collected and dried to obtain tuna skin collagen enzymatic hydrolyzed powder.
[0053] (3) Tuna collagen hydrolysate was analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry equipped with an online nanospray ion source. The liquid chromatograph loading volume was 2 μL, the sample separation gradient was 60 min, the column flow rate was controlled at 350 nL / min, the mobile phases A and B were 0.1% formic acid in water and 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile, the column temperature was 40°C, and the electrospray voltage was 2 kV. The mass spectrometer parameters were set as follows: ① MS: scan range (m / z): 200-1500; resolution: 60,000; normalized AGC target: 300%; maximum injection time: 25 ms. ② HCD-MS / MS: resolution: 15,000; normalized AGC target: 50%; maximum injection time: 22 ms; collision energy: 30%; dynamic exclusion time: 30 s.
[0054] (5) Molecular docking screening: The online tool Peptide Ranker (http: / / distilldeep.ucd.ie / PeptideRanker / ) was used to predict the potential biological activity of the peptides, and the online tool ToxinPred (http: / / crdd.osdd.net / raghava / toxinpred / ) was used to predict the toxicity of the peptides. "Non-Toxin" peptides were selected, and the "Peptide property calculator" (http: / / www.innovagen.com / proteomics-tools) tool of the Innovagen program was used to predict the water solubility of the peptides. The human intestinal adsorption (HIA) properties of the peptides were predicted using admetSAR (http: / / lmmd.ecust.edu.cn / admetsar1 / predict / ). HELPDOCK 2.0 was used to predict the binding energy of the peptides with macromolecular enzymes. The peptides that met the conditions should have: PeptideRanker activity score > 0.5, non-toxicity, good water solubility, and good human intestinal absorption. The smaller the "-Docker Energy" value, the higher the antioxidant activity and ACE inhibitory activity, and the peptides with higher activity scores were selected. The obtained peptides were simulated and docked using the molecular docking software AutodockVina, and the three peptides that bound most tightly to Keap1 were screened out. The sequences of these three peptides were MGPR (SEQ ID NO.1), PRGP (SEQ ID NO.2), and PGPM (SEQ ID NO.3). The three peptides that bound most tightly to ACE were screened out. The sequences of these three peptides were GPSGPPGKNG (SEQ ID NO.4), SGPAGPR (SEQ ID NO.5), and SGPAGPK (SEQ ID NO.6). They were visualized using Pymol and Discovery Studio software.
[0055] Keap1, a BTB-Kelch substrate adaptor protein, regulates Nrf2 homeostasis in response to oxidative stress. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a key enzyme that contributes to elevated blood pressure in humans. Inhibiting ACE activity can maintain relative blood pressure stability. The Keap1 structure (PDB ID: 2FUL) and the human ACE structure (PDB ID: 1O8A) were obtained from the RCSB protein library. Before docking, Keap1 and ACE were modified using Pymol. The secondary structures of the tetrapeptides MGPR, PRGP, and PGPM, and the decapeptides GPSGPPGKNG, SGPAGPR, and SGPAGPK were drawn using ChemDraw software and energy minimized using the Minimize Energy module. A GridBox was set in AutoDock Vina software, with the X, Y, and Z coordinates and the grid center adjusted to accommodate the entire protein molecule.
[0056] Molecular docking screening of the peptide sequences identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry revealed three peptides with the highest antioxidant activity, represented by SEQ ID NOs. 1 to 3. Their molecular weights and docking results are shown in Table 1. Three peptides with ACE inhibitory activity, represented by SEQ ID NOs. 4 to 6, were also identified. Docking results revealed that the minimum binding energies of all six peptides with the enzyme were less than -6 kcal / mol, indicating spontaneous binding of the ligand to the receptor. Furthermore, it is generally accepted that a binding free energy of ≤ -5.0 kcal / mol indicates that the binding of a ligand to the target protein is meaningful.

[0060] (6) Detection of DPPH free radical scavenging rate and ACE inhibition rate of peptides
[0061] The DPPH free radical scavenging rate or ACE inhibition rate of the above-mentioned tuna skin collagen, tuna skin collagen enzymatic hydrolysate powder, MGPR, PRGP, PGPM, GPSGPPGKNG, SGPAGPR and SGPAGPK was detected as follows:
[0062] DPPH free radical scavenging rate determination: Use 95% ethanol to accurately prepare 0.3mmol / L DPPH solution, and use 5mg / mL peptide solution sample (the amino acid sequence of the peptide is shown in SEQ ID NO.1-3). Pipette 100μL sample and measure the absorbance (A) at 517nm. b ), then add 100 μL DPPH solution, mix well and react in the dark for 30 min, and measure the absorbance (A s ). Water was used as the control group instead of the sample, and its blank absorbance and absorbance after reaction were recorded as A cb and A c ; Calculate IC based on clearance 50The calculation formula of DPPH free radical scavenging rate is as follows:
[0063] DPPH free radical scavenging rate = [1-(A s -A b )] / A c -A cb ×100%;
[0064] ACE inhibition rate determination: Prepare 5 mmol / L hippuryl-histidyl-leucine (N-hippuryl-His-Leu tetrahydrate, HHL) solution, 0.1 U / mL ACE enzyme solution, and 1 mg / mL polypeptide solution sample (peptide amino acid sequences are shown in SEQ ID NOs. 4-6) in borate buffer (0.1 mol / L, pH 8.3, containing 0.3 mol / L NaCl). Also prepare 1 mol / L HCl solution.
[0065] According to the sequence in Table 2, the mixed solution after shaking was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 15 min, 1 mL of ethyl acetate was taken from the upper part, and dried in an oven at 120°C for 30 min. After cooling to room temperature, it was dissolved with 4 mL of deionized water and shaken thoroughly. The absorbance at a wavelength of 228 nm was measured using a UV spectrophotometer. Three parallel groups were measured for each group, and the average value was taken. The IC was calculated based on the inhibition rate. 50 The calculation formula of ACE inhibition rate is as follows:
[0066] ACE inhibition rate = (A b -A a ) / (A b -A c )×100%;
[0067] Where A a is the absorbance under the condition that both ACE and ACE inhibitory peptide exist (experimental group A); A b A is the absorbance under the condition that ACE inhibitory peptide does not participate in the reaction (control group B); c It is the absorbance under the condition that ACE does not participate in the reaction (blank group and group C).
