Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of deep processing of edible fungi, and particularly relates to an edible fungus glycopeptide that activates salty and umami taste receptors and an application thereof in low-sodium healthy foods. Background Art

[0002] Taste receptors include epithelial cell Na + Channels (epithelial Na+ channels, ENaC), transient receptor potential (TRP) channel receptor member TRPV1, transmembrane channel-like protein 4 (TMC4), umami receptor G protein-coupled receptors (Tastereceptor type 1 member 1 and Taste receptor type 1 member 3, T1R1 / T1R3). ENaC is one of the main salty taste receptors. On taste bud cells, ENaC mainly senses low concentrations of sodium ions, and by stimulating the regulatory sites in the receptor domain in taste cells, it increases the frequency of sodium ion-induced reactions, thereby enhancing the brain's perception of salty taste. TRPV1 receptors nonspecifically respond to Na + , K + and NH 4+ Cations such as cations enter cells through TRP ion channels, polarizing calcium ions. This influx of calcium ions triggers neurotransmitter release and signal transduction, resulting in the perception of salty taste. The TMC4 receptor is a chloride ion channel that responds to high concentrations of sodium chloride. Certain salt-enhancing peptides can bind to the TMC4 receptor, thereby enhancing salty taste perception. T1R1 and T1R3, as umami receptors, are primarily responsible for sensing umami components in food, such as amino acids and flavor nucleotides.

[0003] Traditional salty taste relies on high sodium salt, and excessive intake leads to health risks such as high blood pressure. Umami enhancers may cause adverse reactions in sensitive people. Moreover, seasonings such as salt and MSG all achieve taste sensing by activating a single taste receptor. It is difficult for seasonings to simulate the complex taste levels of natural food, and the multi-target synergistic activation mechanism of taste receptors has not yet been effectively utilized.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] 1. Dried Stropharia officinalis was used as the raw material and pre-processed by crushing and sieving to obtain Stropharia officinalis powder with a particle size less than 100 mesh. The powder was mixed with water at a ratio of 1 g powder to 20 mL. Glycopeptides were extracted using a slit triple-frequency ultrasonic method: the ultrasonic frequency combinations were 23 kHz, 25 kHz, and 28 kHz, with an ultrasonic power density of 100 W / L for a total of 30 minutes. The ratio of the three-frequency on-time to the rest-time was 6 s: 2 s (23 kHz, 25 kHz, and 28 kHz, respectively, for a total of 6 s, followed by a 2 s pause, and this cycle was repeated). The alternating on-time of each frequency was 2 s. After ultrasonic treatment, the sample was centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 15 minutes. The supernatant was collected and freeze-dried at -70°C for 48 hours to obtain Stropharia officinalis freeze-dried powder.

[0046] 2. Identification of glycopeptide molecules in freeze-dried powder of Stropharia rugosa using mass spectrometry

[0047] (1) The lyophilized powder was pretreated by desalting using a ZipTip C18 microchromatographic column (Merck-Millipore, Shanghai Anpu Laboratory Technology Co., Ltd.). The desalting method was as follows:

[0048] (1.1) Accurately weigh 1.0 mg of Stropharia rugosa freeze-dried powder and dissolve it in 10 μL of 0.1% (v / v) TFA to obtain a Stropharia rugosa freeze-dried powder solution.

[0049] (1.2) Rinse the column 10 times with 50 μL of a solution containing 60% (v / v) ACN and 0.1% (v / v) TFA in pure water; rinse the column 10 times with 10 μL of 0.1% TFA;

[0050] (1.3) The dissolved solution of the Stropharia rugosa freeze-dried powder was aspirated and discharged through the chromatography column 20 times; the chromatography column was rinsed 5 times with 10 μL of 0.1% TFA; the chromatography column was eluted with 10 μL of a solution containing 60% (v / v) ACN and 0.1% (v / v) TFA in purified water. The eluate was collected and transferred to a polypropylene centrifuge tube and vacuum dried to obtain the desalted dry powder.

[0051] (2) The desalted dry powder was dissolved in 20 μL of 0.1% (v / v) formic acid aqueous solution, vortexed, and centrifuged at 17,000 rpm and 4°C for 20 min. The supernatant was collected and transferred to a sample tube with an injection volume of 3 μL for LC-MS / MS sequence analysis. The liquid chromatography mobile phase A was 0.1% (v / v) formic acid aqueous solution, and the mobile phase B was acetonitrile containing 0.1% (v / v) formic acid. The LC-MS / MS parameters are shown in Table 1. The LC-MS / MS identification data were searched in the identification sequence database using PEAKS software.

[0052] Table 1 LC-MS / MS parameter settings

[0053]

[0054] After LC-MS / MS identification and PEAKS software processing, a glycopeptide molecule with high mass spectrum abundance was obtained in the freeze-dried powder sample of Pleurotus ostreatus. The glycopeptide sequence is EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ, with a molecular weight of 1280Da. In the glycopeptide molecule, the sugar chain is composed of fucose and glucose. Fucose is linked to the threonine (Thr) hydroxyl group of the peptide chain through an α-glycosidic bond in an O-linked glycosylation manner, and glucose is linked to the serine (Ser) hydroxyl group of the peptide chain through an α-glycosidic bond in an O-linked glycosylation manner. The peptide segment contains characteristic savory amino acid (glutamic acid, glutamine) and sweet amino acid (serine, threonine) sequences, accounting for 50% and 25% respectively. The mass spectrum of the glycopeptide molecule EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ is shown below. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, and the molecular structure of glycopeptide is as shown in the figure Figure 2 shown.

[0055] At the same time, another glycopeptide molecule was identified using the above method. The glycopeptide sequence was AVS(GalNAc)VPLQ. The sugar chain composition of the glycopeptide molecule was N-acetylgalactosamine, which was connected to the serine hydroxyl group of the peptide chain through an α-glycosidic bond in an O-linked glycosylation manner.

[0056] Example 2

[0057] The taste sensory evaluation of EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ and AVS(GalNAc)VPLQ obtained in Example 1 was performed

[0058] 1. Prepare glycopeptide solutions, NaCl solutions, and monosodium glutamate (MSG) solutions with water at concentrations of 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, and 0.5%, respectively. As shown in Table 2, set sensory scores corresponding to each concentration of NaCl and MSG solutions. Using the scores for each concentration of NaCl and MSG as the standard, evaluate the concentration of glycopeptide solution that is equivalent in saltiness intensity to that of NaCl solution and the concentration of glycopeptide solution that is equivalent in umami intensity to that of MSG solution.

[0059] Table 2 Sensory scores of NaCl solution and MSG solution at different concentrations

[0060] Fraction 2 4 6 8 10 NaCl solution concentration (%) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 MSG solution concentration (%) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5

[0061] The sensory evaluation experiment was conducted in a sensory analysis room at 25°C. The samples were prepared and placed in 30mL tasting cups, randomly numbered with three digits. The assessors randomly selected samples and tasted at least 5mL. They stirred the samples with their tongues for 10 seconds and then spat them out. To avoid fatigue and carryover effects, the assessors rinsed their mouths with ultrapure water and rested for 2 minutes between tastings. Ten trained sensory assessors (5 women and 5 men, aged 22-30 years) blindly tested the glycopeptide solutions at various concentrations, comparing the saltiness and umami intensity of each concentration of NaCl and MSG, and scoring the glycopeptide solutions at each concentration. The results are shown in Tables 3 and 4.

[0062] Table 3 The scores of salty taste intensity of EEET(Fuc)S(G1c)LHQ glycopeptide solutions at different concentrations

[0063] Glycopeptide solution concentration (%) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 Fraction 2.8 6.1 9.8 11-3 11-3

[0064] Table 4 Scores of umami intensity obtained for EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide solutions at different concentrations

[0065] Glycopeptide solution concentration (%) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 Fraction 1.5 3.4 5.1 10.4 11.1

[0066] The scores in Tables 3 and 4 were compared with the scores specified in Table 2. Sensory evaluation results showed that the saltiness intensity of a 0.3% EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide solution was equivalent to that of a 0.5% NaCl solution, and the umami intensity of a 0.4% EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide solution was equivalent to that of a 0.5% MSG solution. AVS(GalNAc)VPLQ glycopeptide, on the other hand, lacked saltiness or umami.

[0067] Sensory evaluation results indicate that the glycopeptide EEET(Fuc)S(G1c)LHQ can reduce the amount of NaCl by 40% without reducing saltiness, and the amount of MSG by 20% without reducing umami. Here, the amount of NaCl reduced = (NaCl solution concentration equivalent to saltiness intensity - glycopeptide solution concentration equivalent to saltiness intensity) / NaCl solution concentration equivalent to saltiness intensity, and the amount of MSG reduced = (MSG solution concentration equivalent to umami intensity - glycopeptide solution concentration equivalent to umami intensity) / MSG solution concentration equivalent to umami intensity.

[0068] 2. Based on the above salty taste evaluation process, 0.2% EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide solution is the lowest concentration with salty taste intensity. The 0.2% EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide solution was diluted to concentrations of 0.18%, 0.16%, 0.14%, 0.12%, and 0.10%. Using the evaluation experiment described in step 1 above, the lowest solution concentration at which the assessors tasted salty was 0.12%, that is, the salty taste threshold of the EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide was 0.12%.

[0069] Based on the above umami evaluation process, 0.3% EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide solution is the lowest concentration with umami intensity. The 0.3% EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide solution was diluted to concentrations of 0.29%, 0.28%, 0.27%, 0.26%, 0.25%, 0.24%, 0.23%, 0.22%, and 0.21%. Using the evaluation experiment described in step 1 above, the lowest solution concentration at which the assessors tasted umami was 0.27%, that is, the umami threshold of the EEET(Fuc)S(Glc)LHQ glycopeptide was 0.27%.
