Abstract

The invention discloses a small-molecule peptide derived from red rice bran, the amino acid sequence of the small-molecule peptide is Leuu-Cys-Trp (LCW), and in-vitro tyrosinase activity and intracellular tyrosinase activity experiments of the small-molecule peptide LCW show that the small-molecule peptide can be used for detecting the content of tyrosinase. Results show that the activity of tyrosinase is inhibited by combining the LCW with amino acid residues of the tyrosinase through hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interaction force and hydrophobic force and combining the LCW with active centers Cu400 and Cu401 of the tyrosinase through Van der Waals force, and the LCW has copper ion chelation ability, and experiments prove that the LCW has good tyrosinase inhibition activity. And the small molecule peptide has the advantages of high safety, good water solubility and simple preparation, and is suitable for industrial production and market popularization and application.
