Abstract
β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG) is one of the major food allergens. Enzymatic hydrolysis is a promising strategy to reduce the antigenicity of β-LG in industrial production. The relationship between the cleavage sites of β-LG by protease and its antigenic active sites were explored in this study. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) were used to analyze the active sites and interaction force of β-LG and IgG antibody. Whey protein was hydrolyzed by four specific enzymes and the antigenicity of the hydrolysates were determined by ELISA. The results of MD showed that the amino acid residue Gln155 (-4.48 kcal mol-1) played the most important roles in the process of binding. Hydrolysates produced by AY-10, which was the only one with specificity towards cleavage sites next to a Gln, had the lowest antigenicity at the same hydrolysis degree. Antigenicity decrease was related to the energy contribution of the cleavage site in the active sites.
