Abstract
This study explored the mechanism of interaction between chlorogenic acid (CA) and protein fibrils (PF) as well as the effects of varying the CA/PF concentration ratio on antibacterial activity. Analysis of various parameters, such as ζ-potential, thioflavin T fluorescence intensity, surface hydrophobicity, and free sulfhydryl groups, revealed that the interaction between PF and CA altered the structure of PF. Fluorescence analysis revealed that hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions were the primary interaction forces causing conformational rearrangement, resulting in a shorter, more flexible, and thicker fibril structure, as observed through transmission electron microscopy. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering, and X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that the characteristic fibril structure was destroyed when the CA/PF ratio exceeded 0.05. Notably, the CA-PF complexes inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus and also exhibited antioxidant activity. Overall, this study expands the application prospects of CA and PF in the food industry.

The effect of rice protein-polyphenols covalent and non-covalent interactions on the structure, functionality and in vitro digestion properties of rice protein. Food Chem 2024; 450:139241. [PMID: 38636382 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2024] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
The characteristics of the crosslinking between rice protein (RP) and ferulic acid (FA), gallic acid (GA), or tannin acid (TA) by covalent binding of Laccase and non-covalent binding were evaluated. The RP-polyphenol complexes greatly improved the functionality of RP. The covalent effect with higher polyphenol binding equivalence showed higher emulsion activity than the non-covalent effect. The solubility, and antioxidant activity of covalent binding were higher than that of non-covalent binding in the RP-FA group, but there was a contrasting behavior in the RP-GA group. The RP-FA was most soluble in conjugates, while the RP-GA had the highest solubility in mixtures. It was found that the covalent complexes were more stable in the intestinal tract. The content of polyphenols in the RP-TA group was rapidly increased at the later intestinal digestion, which indicated the high polyphenol-protective effect in this group. Meanwhile, the RP-TA group showed high reducing power but low digestibility.

Abstract
Rose polyphenols, key functional components in roses, require adequate bioaccessibility for their health benefits, subject to influence by food components and processing. Investigating the impact of various thermal sterilization methods on the bioaccessibility of rose polyphenols in rose tea with milk and the underlying mechanisms, our findings indicated a significant increase in bioaccessibility following treatment at 85 °C/30 min. Conversely, 121 °C/15 min treatment decreased bioaccessibility. Examining the interaction between β-casein in milk and rose polyphenols under different sterilization conditions, SEM and particle size analysis revealed binding, with fluorescence spectroscopy indicating non-covalent bonds. Binding forces followed the order 121 °C > 85 °C > 25 °C. Notably, at 85 °C, non-covalent binding improved polyphenol bioaccessibility, while the intensified binding at 121 °C decreased it. SDS-PAGE and amino acid analysis confirmed no covalent bond. This study establishes a theoretical basis for selecting thermal sterilization temperatures for milk-flower combinations, considering polyphenol bioaccessibility.

[PMID: 38301561 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138614] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024]
Abstract
Studies have shown that high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) processing and chlorogenic acid (CA) treatment can effectively reduce food allergenicity. We hypothesize that these novel processing techniques can help tackle crayfish allergy and examined the impact and mechanism of HHP (300 MPa, 15 min) and CA (CA:tropomyosin = 1:4000, 15 min) on the allergenicity of crayfish tropomyosin. Our results revealed that CA, rather than HHP, effectively reduced tropomyosin's allergenicity, as evident in the alleviation of allergic symptoms in a food allergy mouse model. Spectroscopy and molecular docking analyses demonstrated that CA could reduce the allergenicity of tropomyosin by covalent or non-covalent binding, altering its secondary structure (2.1 % decrease in α-helix; 1.9 % increase in β-fold) and masking tropomyosin's linear epitopes. Moreover, CA-treated tropomyosin potentially induced milder allergic reactions by up-regulating TLR8. While our results supported the efficacy of CA in alleviating crayfish allergy, further exploration is needed to determine clinical effectiveness.

Effects of Chlorogenic Acid on Lowering IgE-Binding Capacity of Soybean 7S: Comparison between Covalent and Noncovalent Interaction. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2024; 72:12270-12280.

Abstract
Allergenicity of soybean 7S protein (7S) troubles many people around the world. However, many processing methods for lowering allergenicity is invalid. Interaction of 7S with phenolic acids, such as chlorogenic acid (CHA), to structurally modify 7S may lower the allergenicity. Hence, the effects of covalent (C-I, periodate oxidation method) and noncovalent interactions (NC-I) of 7S with CHA in different concentrations (0.3, 0.5, and 1.0 mM) on lowering 7S allergenicity were investigated in this study. The results demonstrated that C-I led to higher binding efficiency (C-0.3:28.51 ± 2.13%) than NC-I (N-0.3:22.66 ± 1.75%). The C-I decreased the α-helix content (C-1:21.06%), while the NC-I increased the random coil content (N-1:24.39%). The covalent 7S-CHA complexes of different concentrations had lower IgE binding capacity (C-0.3:37.38 ± 0.61; C-0.5:34.89 ± 0.80; C-1:35.69 ± 0.61%) compared with that of natural 7S (100%), while the noncovalent 7S-CHA complexes showed concentration-dependent inhibition of IgE binding capacity (N-0.3:57.89 ± 1.23; N-0.5:46.91 ± 1.57; N-1:40.79 ± 0.22%). Both interactions produced binding to known linear epitopes. This study provides the theoretical basis for the CHA application in soybean products to lower soybean allergenicity.

Abstract
Among the common natural biomolecules, the excellent properties of proteins have attracted extensive attention from researchers for functional applications, however, in native form proteins have many limitations in the performance of their functional attribute. However, with the deepening of research, it has been found that the combination of natural active substances such as polyphenols, polysaccharides, etc. with protein molecules will make the composite system have stronger functional properties, while the utilization of pH-driven method, ultrasonic treatment, heat treatment, etc. not only provides a guarantee for the overall protein-based composite system, but also gives more possibilities to the protein-composite system. Protein composite systems are emerging in the fields of novel active packaging, functional factor delivery systems and gel systems with high medical value. The products of these protein composite systems usually have high functional properties, mainly due to the interaction of the remaining natural active substances with protein molecules, which can be broadly categorized into covalent interactions and non-covalent interactions, and which, despite the differences in these interactions, together constitute the cornerstone for the stability of protein composite systems and for in-depth research.

Abstract
Proteins and polyphenols are abundant in the daily diet of humans and their interactions influence, among other things, the texture, flavor, and bioaccessibility of food. There are two types of interactions between them: non-covalent interactions and covalent interactions, the latter being irreversible and more powerful. In this review, we systematically summarized advances in the investigation of possible mechanism underlying covalent polyphenols-proteins interaction in food processing, effect of different processing methods on covalent interaction, methods for characterizing covalent complexes, and impacts of covalent interactions on protein structure, function and nutritional value, as well as potential bioavailability of polyphenols. In terms of health promotion of the prepared covalent complexes, health effects such as antioxidant, hypoglycemic, regulation of intestinal microbiota and regulation of allergic reactions have been summarized. Also, the possible applications in food industry, especially as foaming agents, emulsifiers and nanomaterials have also been discussed. In order to offer directions for novel research on their interactions in food systems, nutritional value, and health properties in vivo, we considered the present challenges and future perspectives of the topic.

Abstract
Lesser mealworm protein concentrate (LMPC) was conjugated with chlorogenic acid (CA) or tannic acid (TA) using an alkaline method. The impact of polyphenol type and concentration on the physicochemical and structural characteristics, antioxidant, interfacial, and emulsifying properties of the LMPC-polyphenol conjugates were investigated. Under the conditions tested, TA demonstrated higher affinity for LMPC compared to CA. The conjugation of LMPC induced conformational changes as showed by intrinsic fluorescence and FT-MIR raw spectra analysis. The surface hydrophobicity of the conjugates was reduced, leading to increased interfacial tension values for LMPC-TA conjugates without impairment of the emulsifying activity. The antioxidant properties were significantly improved by the conjugation. Flaxseed oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions stabilized by the conjugates and LMPC remained physically stable for 12 days at 50 °C with a notable reduction of secondary oxidation products when conjugates were used. LMPC-TA and LMPC-CA exhibited potential to be used as novel antioxidant emulsifiers in O/W emulsions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The interaction between food allergens and plant polyphenols has become a safe and effective management strategy to prevent food allergies. Ovalbumin (OVA) is the most abundant allergen in egg whites. Resveratrol (RES) is a plant polyphenol that is abundant in red grapes, berries, and peanuts, and has an anti-allergic effect on allergy-related immune cells. However, there is little information about the effect of RES on the allergenicity of OVA. In this study, the effect of RES on the allergenicity of OVA was investigated. RESULTS Molecular docking and spectroscopic studies indicated that the addition of RES changed the structure of OVA. The digestion and transfer rate of OVA-RES were effectively improved with an in vitro gastrointestinal digestion model and Caco-2 cell model, especially when the molar ratio of OVA-RES was 1:20. Meanwhile, the KU812 cell degranulation assay proved that the potential allergenicity was remarkably decreased while the molar ratios of OVA-RES were increased to 1:20. Furthermore, hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces were the dominating forces to stabilize the OVA-RES complexes. CONCLUSION All the findings demonstrated that the potential allergenicity of OVA was reduced when interacting with RES, and RES can be a potential food material for preparing a hypoallergenic protein, especially for egg allergy. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Wróblewska B, Kuliga A, Wnorowska K. Bioactive Dairy-Fermented Products and Phenolic Compounds: Together or Apart. Molecules 2023; 28:8081. [PMID: 38138571 PMCID: PMC10746084 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28248081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Fermented dairy products (e.g., yogurt, kefir, and buttermilk) are significant in the dairy industry. They are less immunoreactive than the raw materials from which they are derived. The attractiveness of these products is based on their bioactivity and properties that induce immune or anti-inflammatory processes. In the search for new solutions, plant raw materials with beneficial effects have been combined to multiply their effects or obtain new properties. Polyphenols (e.g., flavonoids, phenolic acids, lignans, and stilbenes) are present in fruit and vegetables, but also in coffee, tea, or wine. They reduce the risk of chronic diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, or inflammation. Hence, it is becoming valuable to combine dairy proteins with polyphenols, of which epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and chlorogenic acid (CGA) show a particular predisposition to bind to milk proteins (e.g., α-lactalbumin β-lactoglobulin, αs1-casein, and κ-casein). Reducing the allergenicity of milk proteins by combining them with polyphenols is an essential issue. As potential 'metabolic prebiotics', they also contribute to stimulating the growth of beneficial bacteria and inhibiting pathogenic bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract. In silico methods, mainly docking, assess the new structures of conjugates and the consequences of the interactions that are formed between proteins and polyphenols, as well as to predict their action in the body.

Abstract
Plant polyphenols with a catechol structure can form covalent adducts with meat proteins, which affects the quality and processing of meat products. However, there is a lack of fast and effective methods of characterizing these adducts and understanding their mechanisms. This study aimed to investigate the covalent interaction between myofibrillar protein (MP) and caffeic acid (CA), a plant polyphenol with a catechol structure, using molecular probe technology. The CA-MP adducts were separated via sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and detected via Western blot and LC-MS/MS analyses. The Western blot analysis revealed that various specific adducts were successfully enriched and identified as bands around 220 kDa, 45 kDa, and two distinct bands between 95 and 130 kDa. Combined with the LC-MS/MS analysis, a total of 51 peptides were identified to be CA-adducted, corresponding to 31 proteins. More than 80% of the adducted peptides carried one adducted site, and the rest carried two adducted sites. The adducted sites were located on cysteine (C/Cys), histidine (H/His), arginine (R/Arg), lysine (K/Lys), proline (P/Pro), and N-terminal (N-Term) residues. Results showed that the covalent interaction of CA and MP was highly selective for the R side chain of amino acids. Moreover, the adducts were more likely to form via C-N bonding than C-S bonding. This study provides new insights into the covalent interaction of plant polyphenols and meat proteins, which has important implications for the rational use of plant polyphenols in the meat processing industry.

Abstract
β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) is an essential nutrient in milk, but it is the primary allergen causing dairy allergy in humans. Currently, researchers are focusing on using flavonoids to covalently modify β-LG for improving its functionality. However, the impact and underlying mechanisms of rutin covalent modification on the functional properties and allergenicity of β-LG remain unclear. Here, we aim to investigate the changes in allergenicity, digestive characteristics, and antioxidant properties of β-LG after covalent modification using a combination of spectroscopy, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), simulated digestion, and antioxidant assays. The results indicate that rutin forms covalent bonds with the free amino group, sulfhydryl group, and tryptophan of β-LG, leading to alterations in the secondary structure of β-LG. Furthermore, the modified β-LG exhibits improved antioxidant capacity and decreased allergenicity, along with reduced resistance to pancreatin digestion in vitro. This study provides novel insights and strategies to expand the functional application of β-LG.

Abstract
Rubus species holds promise as a valuable source of polyphenols and bioactive compounds, offering significant potential as functional food ingredients with both nutraceutical and pharmaceutical benefits. However, many edible species within this genus remain under-explored and their importance is largely unrecognized. This review aims to provide an overview of the nutritional and bioactive components of both explored and under-explored Rubus species, highlighting their potential health advantages, value addition, and recent advancements. The economic exploitation of Rubus is currently limited to a few cultivated species, while numerous non-conventional and wild edible species are overlooked. Recognizing the economic and nutritional significance of exploited Rubus species, it is imperative to explore the untapped potential of these underutilized plants. By doing so, these species can be preserved from endangerment and contribute to nutritional and livelihood security for communities having access to them. This review emphasizes the importance of understanding the exceptional characteristics of Rubus species as "superfoods" and encourages the promotion and cultivation of these unexplored species. By expanding the cultivation and utilization of under-explored Rubus species, we can unlock their full potential and support sustainable nutritional and economic benefits.

Abstract
The aim of this study is the effects of (+)-catechin (CC) covalent cross-linking (CCCI) (0.05-0.25 %, w/v) on the physicochemical properties, rheological properties, and oxidative stability of rice bran protein (RBP) emulsion. Analysis of particle size, ζ-potential, circular dichroism, fluorescence spectroscopy, surface hydrophobicity, and emulsifying properties demonstrated that a concentration of 0.15 % (w/v) CCCI facilitated protein structure unfolding, resulting in reduced particle size, enhanced electrostatic repulsion, and improved emulsion stability. Moreover, the covalent complexes of RBP-0.15 %CC (w/v) exhibited increased viscosity and shear stress, reflected by the highest G' and G″ values, ultimately enhancing the oxidative stability. Furthermore, analysis using atomic force microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed that the RBP-0.15 %CC complexes exhibited the smallest particle size (164 nm) and displayed greater homogeneity. An increase in CC concentration to 0.25 % (w/v) resulted in a higher emulsion aggregation. The emulsions stabilized by CCCI exhibited superior rheological properties and enhanced oxidation stability compared to the control. In conclusion, an appropriate amount of CC can enhance the rheology and oxidation stability of the RBP emulsion, while CCCI treatment holds potential for expanding the utility of RBP in various applications.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of the interaction of walnut protein isolate (WPI) with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), chlorogenic acid (CLA), (+)-catechin (CA), and ellagic acid (EA) on the structural and functional properties of proteins. The results for polyphenol binding equivalents and content of free amino and sulfhydryl groups as well as those from sodium dodecyl sulfate‒polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis confirmed the covalent interaction between WPI and the polyphenols. The binding capacities of the WPI-polyphenol mixtures and conjugates were as follows: WPI-EGCG > WPI-CLA > WPI-CA > WPI-EA. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and fluorescence spectrum analysis identified changes in the protein structure. The conjugation process obviously increased the polyphenols' antioxidant properties and the surface hydrophobicity was substantially reduced. WPI-EGCG conjugates had the best functional properties, followed by WPI-CLA, WPI-CA, and WPI-EA. Lycopene (LYC) was loaded into nanocarriers by WPI-EGCG self-assembly. These results indicated that WPI-polyphenol conjugates can be utilized to develop food-grade delivery systems to protect chemically lipophilic bioactive compounds.

Abstract
Food allergies represent a serious health concern and, since the 1990s, they have risen gradually in high-income countries. Unfortunately, the problem is complex because genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors may be collectively involved. Prevention and diagnoses have not yet evolved into efficacious therapies. Identification and control of allergens present in edible substances hold promise for multi-purpose biomedical approaches, including oral immunotherapy. This review highlights recent studies and methods to modify the otherwise innocuous native proteins in most subjects, and how oral treatments targeting immune responses could help cancel out the potential risks in hypersensitive individuals, especially children. We have focused on some physical methods that can easily be conducted, along with chemo-enzymatic modifications of allergens by means of peptides and phytochemicals in particular. The latter, accessible from naturally-occurring substances, provide an added value to hypoallergenic matrices employing vegetal wastes, a point where food chemistry meets sustainable goals as well.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the impacts of gallic acid (GA)/protocatechuic acid (PA) on the structural and functional characteristics of whey proteins (WP) through covalent binding. To this purpose, the covalent complexes of WP-PA and WP-GA at different concentration gradients were prepared by the alkaline method. SDS-PAGE indicated that PA/GA was cross-linked by covalent bonds. The decreased contents of free amino and sulfhydryl groups suggested that WP formed covalent bonds with PA/GA by amino and sulfhydryl groups, and the structure of WP became slightly looser after covalent modification by PA/GA. When the concentration of GA was added up to 10 mM, the structure of WP was slightly loosened with a reduction of α-helix content by 2.3% and an increase in random coil content by 3.0%. The emulsion stability index of WP increased by 14.9 min after interaction with GA. Moreover, the binding of WP and 2-10 mM PA/GA increased the denaturation temperature by 1.95 to 19.87 °C, indicating the improved thermal stability of the PA/GA-WP covalent complex. Additionally, the antioxidant capacity of WP was increased with increasing GA/PA concentration. This work may offer worthful information for enhancing the functional properties of WP and the application of the PA/GA-WP covalent complexes in food emulsifiers.

Abstract
Peanut protein is a common food allergen. Our previous study demonstrated that the allergenicity of Ara h1 declines after covalent conjugation with polyphenols in vitro; however, how polyphenols affect the structure, function, and allergenicity of peanut protein extract (PPE) after covalent conjugating needs clarifying. Here, we assessed how the structure, function, and allergenicity of PPE changed after covalent conjugation with epigallocatechin-3-gallate (PPE-EGCG) and chlorogenic acid (PPE-CA). PPE covalently conjugated with EGCG and CA using the alkali treatment method. Multi-spectroscopy showed that the structure of PPE-EGCG/CA conjugate changed, becoming less folded. In contrast, the functional properties of PPE significantly improved. The allergenicity of PPE-EGCG/CA significantly declined in vitro and in vivo experiments. Our findings confirm that covalent conjugation of PPE with EGCG and CA reduces the allergenicity and improves the functional properties of PPE by changing the structure of the protein.

Foods 2023; 12:foods12112091. [PMID: 37297336 DOI: 10.3390/foods12112091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
During the storage and processing of mung beans, proteins and polyphenols are highly susceptible to interactions with each other. Using globulin extracted from mung beans as the raw material, the study combined it with ferulic acid (FA; phenolic acid) and vitexin (flavonoid). Physical and chemical indicators were combined with spectroscopy and kinetic methods, relying on SPSS and peak fit data to statistically analyze the conformational and antioxidant activity changes of mung bean globulin and two polyphenol complexes before and after heat treatment and clarify the differences and the interaction mechanism between globulin and the two polyphenols. The results showed that, with the increase in polyphenol concentration, the antioxidant activity of the two compounds increased significantly. In addition, the antioxidant activity of the mung bean globulin-FA complex was stronger. However, after heat treatment, the antioxidant activity of the two compounds decreased significantly. The interaction mechanism of the mung bean globulin-FA/vitexin complex was static quenching, and heat treatment accelerated the occurrence of the quenching phenomenon. Mung bean globulin and two polyphenols were combined through a hydrophobic interaction. However, after heat treatment, the binding mode with vitexin changed to an electrostatic interaction. The infrared characteristic absorption peaks of the two compounds shifted to different degrees, and new peaks appeared in the areas of 827 cm-1, 1332 cm-1, and 812 cm-1. Following the interaction between mung bean globulin and FA/vitexin, the particle size decreased, the absolute value of zeta potential increased, and the surface hydrophobicity decreased. After heat treatment, the particle size and zeta potential of the two composites decreased significantly, and the surface hydrophobicity and stability increased significantly. The antioxidation and thermal stability of the mung bean globulin-FA were better than those of the mung bean globulin-vitexin complex. This study aimed to provide a theoretical reference for the protein-polyphenol interaction mechanism and a theoretical basis for the research and development of mung bean functional foods.

Abstract
The effect of quinoa protein hydrolysate (QPH) beverage on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of coffee was investigated. The scores of sensory properties of coffee-quinoa beverage revealed that the unpleasant sensory characteristics, such as extreme bitterness and astringency, were covered up by the addition of quinoa beverage; while smooth mouthfeel and sweetness were enhanced. On the other hand, the introduction of coffee into quinoa beverage significantly retarded oxidation characterized by TBARS. When treated with chlorogenic acid (CGA), significant structural changes and improved functionalities of QPH were detected. CGA induced the unfolding structure of QPH and decreased surface hydrophobicity. The interaction between QPH and CGA was shown by the changes of sulfydryl content and the pattern of SDS-PAGE. Besides, neutral protease treatment increased the equilibrium oil-water interfacial pressure value of QPH, revealing improved stability of emulsions. Synergistic antioxidant effect between QPH and CGA was revealed by increased ABTS+· scavenging rate.

Abstract
Binding to phenolics can improve the functional properties of proteins. Changes in structure, functional properties, and antigenicity of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) after covalent conjugation with ferulic acid (FA) at different mass ratios were reported here. The results of SDS-PAGE and gel exclusion chromatography confirmed that covalent complexes were formed. When the mass ratio of β-LG and FA was 10:6, the binding content of FA was the highest. Fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-visible absorption spectrometry, and FTIR analysis showed that the structure of the complexes was more stretched compared to native β-LG. The addition of FA significantly improved the emulsifying property of β-LG. When the mass ratio was 10:6, the radical scavenging activities of DPPH and ABTS reached 65.06% and 88.22%, respectively, and the antigenicity of β-LG reduced by about 35%. This study provides novel β-LG-FA complexes in food systems to reduce the antigenicity of β-LG and improve functional properties.

Abstract
The effect of alkali-induced oxidation of three phenolic acids, namely gallic acid, epigallocatechin gallate, and tannic acid, on the structure and gelation of ginkgo seed protein isolate (GSPI) was investigated. A mixture of 12% (w/v) GSPI and different concentrations of alkali-treated phenolic acids (0, 0.06, 0.24, and 0.48% w/w) were heated at 90 °C, pH 6.0, for 30 min to form composite gels. The phenolic treatment decreased the hydrophobicity of the GSPI sol while enhancing their rheological properties. Despite a reduced protein solubility, water holding capacity, stiffness, and viscoelasticity of the gels were improved by the treatments. Among them, the modification effect of 0.24% (w/v) EGCG was the most prominent. Through the analysis of microstructure and composition, it was found to be due to the covalent addition, disulfide bond formation, etc., between the quinone derivatives of phenolic acids and the side chains of nucleophilic amino acids. Phenolic acid modification of GSPI may be a potential ingredient strategy in its processing.

Abstract
It is essential to understand the mechanism of action of ultrasound synergistic free radical oxidation to promote covalent reactions between proteins and polyphenols. (-)-epigallo-catechin 3-gallate (EGCG) with rich bioactivity could be used to increase the functional properties of cereal protein-gliadin (GL). This study systematically explored the role of ultrasound treatment (US) on the binding mechanisms of GL and EGCG. Electrophoresis and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) confirmed the greater molecular mass of the covalent complexes in the ultrasound environment. Quantitative analysis by the phenol content revealed that the ultrasound environment increased the EGCG content in the covalent complex by 15.08 mg/g of protein. The changes in the spatial structure of the proteins were indicated by Fourier infrared and ultraviolet spectroscopy. Additionally, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) found that US disrupted the aggregation of GL and the clustered structure of the covalent complexes. The results demonstrated that the water solubility of ultrasonic conjugates was significantly increased by 8.8-64.19%, the digestion rate was more efficient, and the radical scavenging capacity was twice that of GL. This research contributes to the theoretical basis for broadening the application of polyphenols in modifying protein.

Abstract
This study evaluated the impact of proanthocyanidins on immunoglobulin E (IgE) binding capacity, antioxidant, foaming and emulsifying properties in soy 11S protein following alkali treatment at 80 °C for 20 min. The formation of >180 kDa polymer was observed in the combined heating and proanthocyanidins-conjugation treatment sample (11S-80PC) rather than in the heating treated sample (11S-80) using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The structural analyzes demonstrated that 11S-80PC exhibited more protein unfolding than 11S-80. Heatmap analysis revealed that 11S-80PC had more alteration of peptide and epitope profiles in 11S than in 11S-80. Molecular docking showed that PC could well react with soy protein 11S. Liquid chromatography tandem MS analysis (LC/MS-MS) demonstrated that there was a 35.6 % increase in 11S-80, but a 14.5 % decrease in 11S-80PC for the abundance of total linear epitopes. As a result, 11S-80PC exhibited more reduction in IgE binding capacities than 11S-80 owing to more obscuring and disruption of linear and conformational epitopes induced by structural changes. Moreover, 11S-80PC exhibited higher antioxidant capacities, foaming properties and emulsifying activity than 11S-80. Therefore, the addition of proanthocyanidins could decrease allergenic activity and enhance the functional properties of the heated soy 11S protein.

Abstract
In this study, the differences in effects of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and proanthocyanidins (PC) on the functionality and allergenicity of soybean protein isolate (SPI) were studied. SDS-PAGE demonstrated that SPI-PC conjugates exhibited more high-molecular-weight polymers (>180 kDa) than SPI-EGCG conjugates. Structural analysis showed that SPI-PC conjugates exhibited more disordered structures and protein-unfolding, improving the accessibility of PC to modify SPI, compared to SPI-EGCG conjugates. LC/MS-MS demonstrated that PC caused more modification of SPI and major soybean allergens than EGCG, resulting in a lower abundance of epitopes. The successful attachment of EGCG and PC to SPI significantly increased antioxidant capacity in conjugates. Furthermore, SPI-PC conjugates exhibited greater emulsifying activity and lower immunoglobulin E (IgE) binding capacity than SPI-EGCG conjugates, which was attributed to more disordered structure and protein-unfolding in SPI-PC conjugates. It is implied that proanthocyanidins may be promising compounds to interact with soybean proteins to produce functional and hypoallergenic foods.

Abstract
This study investigated the immunoglobulin E (IgE) binding capacity, structure, and physicochemical properties of raw crushed peanut (RCP) after fermentation with Lactobacillus plantarum and Bacillus natto along with autoclaved pretreatment. SDS-PAGE showed the disappearance of partial protein (>45 kDa) in autoclaved peanuts (ACP) and fermented autoclaved peanuts with L. plantarum (LP), and of majority protein (>14.4 kDa) in fermented autoclaved peanuts with B. natto (BN) or a mixture of L. plantarum and B. natto (LPBN). Structural analysis revealed protein-aggregation and protein-unfolding in autoclaved and fermented peanuts, respectively. Indirect ELISA demonstrated that the IgE binding capacities in ACP, LP, BN and LPBN were reduced by 11.3%, 20.6%, 78.7% and 90.2%, respectively, compared to RCP. LPBN showed the lowest IgE binding capacity due to the highest masking and destruction of epitopes and exhibited the desirable physicochemical properties simultaneously. Mixed strain fermentation has the potential to produce hypoallergenic peanut products.

Abstract
Along with health concerns, interest in plants as food and bioactive phytochemical sources has been increased in the last few decades. Phytochemicals as secondary plant metabolites have been the subject of many studies in different fields. Breakthrough for research interest on this topic is re-juvenilized with rising relevance in this global pandemics' era. The recent COVID-19 pandemic attracted the attention of people to viral infections and molecular mechanisms behind these infections. Thus, the core of the present review is the interaction of plant phytochemicals with proteins as these interactions can affect the functions of co-existing proteins, especially focusing on microbial proteins. To the best of our knowledge, there is no work covering the protein-phenolic interactions based on their effects on microbiota and microbial infections. The present review collects and defines the recent data, representing the interactions of phenolic compounds -primarily flavonoids and phenolic acids- with various proteins and explores how these molecular-level interactions account for the human health directly and/or indirectly, such as increased antioxidant properties and antimicrobial capabilities. Furthermore, it provides an insight about the further biological activities of interacted protein-phenolic structure from an antiviral activity perspective. The research on the protein-phenolic interaction mechanisms is of great value for guiding how to take advantage of synergistic effects of proteins and polyphenolics for future medical and nutritive approaches and related technologies.

Abstract
Chlorogenic acid (CGA), also known as coffee tannic acid and 3-caffeoylquinic acid, is a water-soluble polyphenolic phenylacrylate compound produced by plants through the shikimic acid pathway during aerobic respiration. CGA is widely found in higher dicotyledonous plants, ferns, and many Chinese medicine plants, which enjoy the reputation of “plant gold.” We have summarized the biological activities of CGA, which are mainly shown as anti-oxidant, liver and kidney protection, anti-bacterial, anti-tumor, regulation of glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism, anti-inflammatory, protection of the nervous system, and action on blood vessels. We further determined the main applications of CGA in the food industry, including food additives, food storage, food composition modification, food packaging materials, functional food materials, and prebiotics. With a view to the theoretical improvement of CGA, biological activity mechanism, and subsequent development and utilization provide reference and scientific basis.

Abstract
Rice protein hydrolysate was covalently conjugated to chlorogenic acid by three methods. Covalent conjugation resulted in an unfolded structure of rice protein hydrolysate. LYS might be the binding sites for chlorogenic acid grafted on rice protein hydrolysate. Conjugates formed by alkaline method exhibited highest functional property.
Proteins and phenolic compounds are common components in foods that readily interact with each other to yield complexes, leading to changes in the functional properties. In this study, we investigated the effect of covalent conjugation of rice protein hydrolysates (RPH) with chlorogenic acid (CA) on the structural and functional properties of RPH. Three RPH-CA conjugates were prepared by the alkaline, enzyme, and free radical methods, respectively. Covalent conjugation decreased the content of free amino, thiol, and tyrosine groups, and increased in the amount of CA bounds from 15.23 to 21.11 nmol/mg. Moreover, the circular dichroism analysis revealed that covalent conjugation resulted in an increase of random coils. The emulsifying activity and antioxidant capacity of RPH were also improved by the covalent conjugation with CA. This work provides a better understanding of the formation of hydrolysates-chlorogenic acid conjugates, contributing to improving the functional properties of foods.

Experimental and computational studies on the mechanism of the β-lactoglobulin-derived peptide inhibiting the antigenicity of β-lactoglobulin. Food Chem 2022; 393:133333.

Abstract
In this study, through a combined simulated enzymolysis-molecular docking-molecular simulation-activity determination-action mechanism strategy, we screened a β-LG-derived peptide (VAGTWYSL) to inhibit the antigenicity of β-LG and explored its mechanism of action. Our results indicate that the inhibitory effect of the peptide on the antigenicity of β-LG is affected by different experimental conditions, including pH, reaction time and concentration. Three factors may contribute to the reduced allergenicity of β-LG. First, there must be sufficient forces between the peptide and β-LG, as a result, hydrophobic forces and hydrogen bonds are the main forces to maintain the structural stability of the complex. Second, the binding of the peptide changes the secondary structure of β-LG, especially with an increase in α-helices and a decrease in β-turns. Third, the peptide binds to the hydrophobic region of β-LG, involving the antigenic epitope region Val41-Lys60, which may reduce the antigenicity.
