Effects of ultrasound pretreatment on the structure, IgE binding capacity, functional properties and bioactivity of whey protein hydrolysates via multispectroscopy and peptidomics revealed. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 110:107025. [PMID: 39163694 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.107025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 07/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/10/2024] [Indexed: 08/22/2024]
Abstract
Whey protein is an important food ingredient, but it is also considered a major food allergen. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasound pretreatment on the structure, IgE binding capacity, functional properties and biological activity of whey protein isolate (WPI) hydrolysates (WPH), including WPI hydrolyzed by a combination of enzymes from Bromelain and ProteAXH (BA-WPI) and WPI hydrolyzed by a combination of enzymes from Papain W-40 and ProteAXH (PA-WPI). The IgE binding capacity of BA-WPI and PA-WPI was reduced to 40.28% and 30.17%, respectively, due to disruption/exposure/shielding of conformational and linear epitopes. The IgE binding capacity of sonicated WPI was increased, but ultrasound pretreatment further reduced the IgE binding capacity of the hydrolysates to 32.89% and 28.04%. This is due to the fact that ultrasound pretreatment leads to conformational changes including increased α-helix and β-sheet structure, exposure of aromatic amino acids, surface hydrophobicity, and increased sulfhydryl content, which increases the accessibility of allergenic epitopes to WPI by the enzyme. Multispectral and LC-MS/MS results further indicated that ultrasound pretreatment altered the conformational and primary structural changes of the hydrolysates. The thermograms showed that ultrasound pretreatment mainly altered the epitope spectra of β-lactoglobulin hydrolysates, while it had less effect on the epitope spectra of α-lactalbumin hydrolysates. Additionally, ultrasound pretreatment significantly improved the foaming properties, antioxidant activity, and α-glucosidase inhibition of the hydrolysates without impairing the solubility and emulsification properties of the hydrolysates. Therefore, ultrasound pretreatment is a feasible method to reduce the allergenicity of WPH and to improve their functional properties and bioactivity. Notably, ultrasonic pretreatment improved the effectiveness and efficiency of WPI hydrolysis, which is a feasible method to produce high-quality protein feedstock in a green, efficient, and economical way.

Abstract
Food allergy is a serious public health problem, which is mainly induced by food allergens (mainly allergenic proteins). Ultrasound can change protein structure, suggesting its potential to decrease food allergenicity. The review concluded the mechanism and influence factors of ultrasound to reduce food allergenicity. The effects of ultrasound alone on some major allergenic foods such as tree nuts, shellfish, fish, egg, soy, milk, and wheat were also discussed. Moreover, ultrasound pre- and post-treatments were combined with heating, glycation, germination, hydrolysis, fermentation, irradiation and polyphenol treatment for reducing food allergenicity were also evaluated. It was found that ultrasound induced structural changes even degradation of protein to reduce the allergenicity mainly due to cavitation effects. The reduction of allergenicity through ultrasound alone was affected by ultrasound power, time, frequency and food types, while, apart from these factors, it was affected by ultrasound order and the assisted technologies conditions during ultrasound-assisted technologies. Compared to ultrasound alone treatment, the ultrasound-assisted technology exhibited high efficiency of allergenicity reduction because ultrasound treatment caused protein unfolding to accelerate allergen modification of the assisted technologies for masking and disrupting more epitopes. Thus, ultrasound treatment, especially ultrasound-assisted technologies under appropriate conditions, was promising for producing hypoallergenic foods.

Abstract
Chinese quince (Chaenomeles sinensis) fruit is an underutilized resource, rich in proanthocyanidins with antioxidant ability but poor lipid solubility. In this study, a novel modified oligomeric proanthocyanidin (MOPA) was prepared, which exhibited favorable lipid solubility (354.52 mg/100 g). It showed higher radical scavenging abilities than commercial antioxidant-BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), both at 0.4-0.5 mg/mL. The addition of MOPA (0.04 %wt.) significantly increased the oxidative stability index of the soybean oil from 5.52 to 8.03 h, which was slightly lower than that of BHA (8.35 h). Analysis of the physicochemical properties and composition of oil during deep-frying showed that MOPA demonstrated significant antioxidant effects and effectively restricted the oil oxidation. This inhibition also delays the formation of heterocyclic amines (HAs) in fried food, thereby reducing the migration of HAs from food to deep-frying oil. Therefore, MOPA is a promising novel liposoluble antioxidant for protecting the quality of deep-frying oil.

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.

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
C. pyrenoidosa, a species of microalgae, has been recognized as a viable protein source for human consumption. The primary challenges in this context are the development of an efficient extraction process and the valorization of the resultant waste streams. This study, situated within the paradigm of circular economy, presents an innovative extraction approach that achieved a protein extraction efficiency of 62 %. The extracted protein exhibited remarkable oil-water emulsifying performances, such as uniform morphology with high creaming stability, suggesting a sustainable alternative to conventional emulsifiers. Additionally, hydrothermal liquefaction technique was employed for converting the residual biomass and waste solution from the extraction process into biocrude. A biocrude yield exceeding 40 wt%, characterized by a carbon content of 73 % and a higher heating value of 36 MJ/kg, were obtained. These findings demonstrate the promising potential of microalgae biorefinery, which is significant for paving toward circular economy and zero-waste society.

Abstract
For improving the emulsion stability of rice bran protein (RBP), RBP was modified by different concentrations of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in the presence of soybean protein isolate (SPI), and RBP-EGCG-SPI conjugate was prepared by alkaline pH-shifting. The results showed that the addition of EGCG led to an increase in the bound phenol content and the flexibility of the secondary structure, a decrease in the free sulfhydryl and disulfide bond content of the RBP-EGCG-SPI conjugate. EGCG covalently bound to RBP and SPI through non-disulfide bonds. When the concentration of EGCG was 10 % (w/v), the emulsifying activity index and emulsion stability index of conjugate reached the maximum value (36.61 m2/g and 255.61 min, respectively), and the conjugate had the best emulsion stability. However, an EGCG concentration above 10 % (w/v) negatively affected the emulsion stability, with increasing particle size due to protein aggregation. Summarily, the modification of EGCG improved the emulsion stability of conjugate by regulating the spatial structure of RBP-EGCG-SPI conjugate. The work provided an important guide to further improve the emulsion stability of RBP.

Abstract
We studied the influences of hydrolysis time on the structure, functional properties, and emulsion stability of insoluble soybean meal hydrolysate aggregates (ISMHAs). We assume that the ISMHAs produced by soybean meal can be used as emulsifiers to prepare stable emulsions. The molecular weights of these ISMHAs were below 53 kDa. After hydrolysis, a decrease in α-helices and an increase in random coils indicated that the soybean meal proteins were unfolding. Moreover, the fluorescence intensity, UV absorption, and surface hydrophobicity of ISMHAs increased. These results would contribute to their antioxidant activity and functional properties. Additionally, the 90-min ISMHA sample exhibited the highest ABTS+• scavenging activity (80.02 ± 4.55 %), foaming stability (52.92 ± 8.06 %), and emulsifying properties (emulsifying activity index of 97.09 m2/g; emulsifying stability index of 371.47 min). The 90-min ISMHA emulsion exhibited the smallest particle size and excellent storage stability. Soybean meal peptide by-product emulsifier has potential for sustainable application.

Abstract
Lysine-rich rice bran protein (RBP) can be used as raw material for alkylation modification to improve the self-assembly performance of protein. The results of 1H NMR, degree of alkylation, and DSC analysis showed that the alkyl chain was successfully attached to the RBP. The surface hydrophobicity and absolute ζ-potential increased. The three-dimensional structure of the alkylated RBP (ARBP) become more porous and ARBP-2 was selected as the material for embedding curcumin. The XRD results revealed that curcumin induced self-aggregation of ARBP-2 and the inclusion of curcumin was attained. The maximum encapsulation efficiency of curcumin was 82.67 % and the maximum loading amount was 171.37 g/100 g RBP. The results of atomic force microscopy (AFM), particle size, and polydispersity index (PDI) analyses revealed that the particles in the system were aggregated after curcumin was added. Curcumin was well protected by encapsulation in the self-assembled particles. Thus, this study provides a new strategy for the embedding and delivery of curcumin.

Abstract
The use of by-product hydrolysates as functional ingredients in food production is becoming more widespread. We hypothesized that the covalent binding of proanthocyanidin (PC) to soybean meal hydrolysates (SMHs) will improve the biological activity and function of the SMHs. Accordingly, we investigated the structure, antioxidant activity, and emulsion stability of SMHs after covalent conjugation with different concentrations of PC. An increase in PC addition resulted in the development of more high-molecular-weight SMHs-PC conjugates (40 kDa). The observed increase in the random coil content indicated that greater unfolding and disordered structure formation occurred with increasing PC addition. In addition, the fluorescence intensity and surface hydrophobicity of the SMHs increased, suggesting the presence of free amino acids, which likely contributed to the antioxidant activity and emulsifying properties of the SMHs. Addition of 3.0 mg/mL PC gave the SMHs-PC conjugates the highest antioxidant activity (ABTS+ and DPPH radical scavenging capacities of 89.08 ± 0.47 and 40.90 ± 1.53%, respectively) and emulsifying activity index (79.13 ± 2.80 m2/g), which may be attributed to protein unfolding and maximization of the polyphenol content when PC was covalently bound to the SMHs. Moreover, the SMHs-PC emulsion with 2.0 mg/mL PC showed the smallest particle size and highest viscosity, presenting promising potential as an emulsifier with high biological activity in food.

Abstract
Dextran dialdehyde (ODex) was added to a nanocomplex of soy protein isolate (SPI)-curcumin (Cur) to improve its stability and achieve controlled release of Cur. The SPI-to-ODex mass ratio was optimized to achieve excellent properties and stability. Interactions between various components were confirmed by spectroscopic analysis, and the effect of ODex on the stability and bioactivity of SPI-Cur colloids was discussed. ODex was found to be crosslinked with SPI via the Schiff base reaction, which increased the ζ-potential and improved the surface hydrophobicity of nanocomplexes. At a SPI-to-ODex mass ratio of 20:1, the nanocomplex had a smaller particle size (199.2 nm), higher ζ-potential (-45.48 mV), and higher encapsulation efficiency (96.25%). Furthermore, adding ODex changed the network structure and effectively improved the thermal and storage stability of Cur as well as its antioxidant properties. Moreover, controlled release of Cur was observed during simulated digestion in the gastrointestinal environment.

Abstract
Milk proteins are well known to produce aerated food due to the amphiphilicity. However, milk proteins are commonly added in blends for the desirable properties in food industry. In this study, the foaming properties of milk protein mixtures (MPM), a mixtures of whey protein isolated (WPI) and milk protein concentrate (MPC), was studied through foaming capacity (FC), foam stability (FS), and foam morphology at pH 3.0-9.0. Physiochemical, structural, surface properties, and Pearson correlation analysis were measured to gain insight into foaming behavior. Results indicated that MPM showed excellent FC (113.0-114.3 %) and FS (90.7-93.0 %) at pH 6.0-9.0, and foam displayed a smaller size and uniform distribution. MPM solutions showed smaller particles, higher solubility, and lower apparent viscosity at pH 6.0-9.0, which resulted in an increase in surface pressure and adsorption rate (Kdiff), facilitating more protein absorbed to interface. To further investigate structural changes, various spectral methods were used, in which the structure of MPM was changed with pH. Correlation analysis further suggests that Kdiff and solubility positively affect the formation of foam, while free sulfhydryl and β-sheet contributed to stabilizing foams. These findings provide valuable information on MPM as ingredients for aerated foods under acidic, neutral, and alkaline conditions.

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
Herein, cationic soy protein (NSPI) was synthesized by grafting Ethylenediamine (EDA) onto soy protein isolate (SPI), and protein-gallic acid (GA) complexes were formed by mixing NSPI with GA in various ratios. We assessed the structure, particle size, thermal stability, emulsifying ability, and antioxidant capacity of NSPI and complexes. Results show that grafting with EDA introduced a positive charge to SPI and resulted in a uniform particle size, and enhanced thermal stability, emulsifying ability, and antioxidant capacity. In addition, NSPI presented more amino groups and stronger interactions with GA compared to SPI. EDA and GA synergistically increased the flexibility of SPI, reducing the α-helix content and increasing the random coil content. Moreover, the interactions between SPI, NSPI, and GA were static, and hydrophobic and electrostatic between GA and SPI and NSPI, respectively. Grafting SPI with EDA improved functionality and interactions with GA, implying that NSPI-GA complexes may function as emulsifiers and antioxidants.

Abstract
This study comparatively analyzed the changes in IgE-reactivity and epitopes in proanthocyanidins A2- (PA-Gly m 6) and B2-Gly m 6 (PB-Gly m 6) conjugates prepared by alkali treatment at 80 °C for 20 min. Similar to the western blot, ELISA also showed a higher reduced IgE-reactivity in PA-Gly m 6 (70.12 %) than PB-Gly m 6 (63.17 %). SDS-PAGE demonstrated that proanthocyanidins A2 caused more formation of >180 kDa polymers than proanthocyanidins B2. Multispectral analyses revealed that PA-Gly m 6 exhibited more structural alteration (e.g., a decrease of α-helical content and ANS fluorescence intensity) to unfold protein structure than proanthocyanidins B2, improving the accessibility to modify Gly m 6 for shielding or destroying conformational epitopes. LC/MS-MS revealed that PA-Gly m 6 conjugates had a lower abundance of allergens, peptides and linear epitopes than PB-Gly m 6 conjugates. Molecular docking showed that proanthocyanidins A2 and B2 reacted with Gln-317 and Asn-94 of epitopes, respectively. Overall, proanthocyanidins A2 is more effective than proanthocyanidins B2 to decrease the IgE-reactivity of Gly m 6 due to more shielding or destruction of conformational epitopes and lower content allergens and linear epitopes, which was attributed to more protein-crosslinks formation and structural changes in PA-Gly m 6 conjugates.

Abstract
A glycosylated protein/procyanidin complex was prepared by self-assembly of glycosylated whey protein isolate and proanthocyanidins (PCs). The complex was characterized through endogenous fluorescence spectroscopy, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, Fourier infrared spectroscopy, oil-water interfacial tension, and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that the degree of protein aggregation could be regulated by controlling the added amount of procyanidin, and the main interaction force between glycosylated protein and PCs was hydrogen bonding or hydrophobic interaction. The optimal binding ratio of protein:PCs was 1:1 (w/w), and the solution pH was 6.0. The resulting glycosylated protein/PC compounds had a particle size of about 119 nm. They exhibited excellent antioxidant and free radical-scavenging abilities. Moreover, the thermal denaturation temperature rose to 113.33 °C. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) images show that the emulsion maintains a thick interface layer and improves oxidation resistance with the addition of PCs, increasing the application potential in the functional food industry.

Abstract
The use of by-products as functional components in food production is gaining popularity. This study investigated the structure, biological activity, interaction force, and emulsion stability of soybean meal hydrolysate (SMHs) after covalent conjugation with proanthocyanidin (PC), epigallocatechin (EGCG), gallic acid (GA), and caffeic acid (CA). SDS-PAGE confirmed the formation of SMHs-polyphenol conjugates. Structural analysis indicates unfolding and disordered-structure formation. This transformation directly influenced the antioxidant activity and emulsification of SMHs. The antioxidant and emulsifying properties of all covalent complexes were superior to SMHs, in order of SMHs-PC, SMHs-EGCG, SMHs-GA, and SMHs-CA. Among, SMHs-PC conjugates displayed the highest antioxidant activity (ABTS•+ and DPPH radical scavenging capacities of 89.33% and 52.71%, respectively), total polyphenol content (235.10 mg/g), and emulsification activity (EAI) and stability (ESI) values (109.27 m2/g and 135.05 min, respectively). Moreover, SMHs-PC emulsion showed the smallest particle size (467.20 nm), highest viscosity (520.19 Pa.s), highest protein adsorption (94.33%), and lowest release rate of free fatty acids (FFAs) (18.61%) after digestion. These results provided valuable information for the use of modified SMHs as emulsifiers, which is a promising approach for increasing the value of soybean meal.

Abstract
This study assessed the alteration of IgE-reactivity and functional attribute in soy protein 7S-proanthocyanidins conjugates (7S-80PC) formed by alkali-heating treatment (pH 9.0, 80 °C, 20 min). SDS-PAGE demonstrated that 7S-80PC exhibited the formation of >180 kDa polymers, although the heated 7S (7S-80) had no changes. Multispectral experiments revealed more protein unfolding in 7S-80PC than in 7S-80. Heatmap analysis showed that 7S-80PC showed more alteration of protein, peptide and epitope profiles than 7S-80. LC/MS-MS demonstrated that the content of total dominant linear epitopes was increased by 11.4 % in 7S-80, but decreased by 47.4 % in 7S-80PC. As a result, Western-blot and ELISA showed that 7S-80PC exhibited lower IgE-reactivity than 7S-80, probably because 7S-80PC exhibited more protein-unfolding to increase the accessibility of proanthocyanidins to mask and destroy the exposed conformational epitopes and dominant linear epitopes induced by heating treatment. Furthermore, the successful attachment of PC to soy 7S protein significantly increased antioxidant activity in 7S-80PC. 7S-80PC also showed higher emulsion activity than 7S-80 owing to its high protein flexibility and protein unfolding. However, 7S-80PC exhibited lower foaming properties than 7S-80. Therefore, the addition of proanthocyanidins could decrease IgE-reactivity and alter the functional attribute of the heated soy 7S 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.

Investigation of the differences in the effect of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate and proanthocyanidins on the functionality and allergenicity of soybean protein isolate. Food Chem X 2023; 17:100566. [PMID: 36845520 PMCID: PMC9945447 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.100566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 12/24/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
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.
