Abstract
β-conglycinin (β-CG) is a prominent storage protein belonging to the globulin family in soybean (Glycine max) seeds. Along with other soybean proteins, it serves as an important source of essential amino acids and high-quality nutrition. However, the digestibility and nutritional value of β-CG are key factors affecting the nutritional profile of soy-based foods. The heterotrimeric, secondary, and quaternary structures of β-CG, particularly the spatial arrangement of its α, α', and β subunits, influence its functional properties. Considering these aspects, β-CG emerges as a significant protein with diverse applications in the food and health sectors. Therefore, this review explores β-CG's composition, structure, function, health implications, and industrial uses. Salient discussions are presented on its molecular structure, nutrition, digestibility, allergenicity, and techno-functions including emulsification, solubility, gelling, and structure-function complexities. Overall, the multifaceted potential of β-CG in the healthcare sector and the food industry is evident.

Nutritional attributes and microbial metagenomic profile during solid-state fermentation of soybean meal inoculated with Lactobacillus acidophilus under non-sterile conditions. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:8219-8229. [PMID: 38873977 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Soybean meal (SBM) is used widely in animal feed but it contains anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) such as protease inhibitors - immunogenic proteins that limit its utilization. Fermentative processes could help to reduce these ANFs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional attributes, bacterial community dynamics, and microbial metagenomic profile during the solid-state fermentation of SBM using a strain of the bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus with or without pre-autoclaving treatment. RESULTS Following fermentation, there was a reduction in the pH and a concurrent increase in the population of lactic acid bacteria. Fermentation also resulted in an increase in both crude and soluble protein levels. Trypsin inhibitor levels decreased after fermentation, particularly in fermented SBM that had not been pre-autoclaved, with an inactivation rate higher than 90%. Moreover, high-molecular-weight peptides (44-158 kDa), specifically some polypeptides from the soybean immunogen glycinin and β-conglycinin, underwent degradation during the fermentation process. Bacterial community analysis revealed the dominance of the Lactobacillus genus in all samples, regardless of the treatments applied. Metagenomic profiling identified L. acidophilus as the dominant species in inoculated SBM, irrespective of whether pre-autoclaving was conducted or not. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates the feasibility of solid-state fermentation with L. acidophilus under non-sterile conditions to inactivate trypsin inhibitor and increase protein concentration and hydrolysate immunogen proteins into low-molecular-weight peptides in SBM. Lactobacillus acidophilus inoculum also inhibited the growth of undesirable bacteria. This knowledge contributes to our understanding of the potential applications of solid-state fermentation with L. acidophilus in improving the nutritional quality of SBM. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Improvement of nutritional value and reduction of antinutritional factors (ANFs) of soybean meal (SBM) for animal feed applications could be achieved by using bromelain immobilized onto bentonite (Bt)-carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) composites. The composite with mass ratio between CMC to calcium ion (Ca2+) at 1:20 provided the highest enzyme activity, immobilization yield higher than 95%, with superior thermal and storage stabilities. Performance of the immobilized bromelain for soybean protein hydrolysis was further studied. The results showed that at 60 °C, the immobilized bromelain exhibited the highest efficiency in enzymatic hydrolysis to release free alpha amino nitrogen (FAN) as a product with high selectivity and to effectively reduce SBM allergenic proteins within 30 min. In conclusion, immobilization of bromelain onto Bt-CMC composites leads to stability enhancement of the enzyme, enabling effective improvement in SBM quality in a short treatment time and showing great potential for application in animal feed industries.

Abstract
Plant-based peptides (PBPs) benefit functional food development and environmental sustainability. Proteolysis remains the primary method of peptide production because it is a mild and nontoxic technique. However, potential safety concerns still emanate from toxic or allergenic sequences, amino acid racemization, iso-peptide bond formation, Maillard reaction, dose usage, and frequency. The main aim of this review is to investigate the techno-functions of PBPs in food matrices, as well as their safety concerns. The distinctive characteristics of PBPs exhibit their techno-functions for improving food quality and functionality by contributing to several crucial food formulations and processing. The techno-functions of PBPs include solubility, hydrophobicity, bitterness, foaming, oil-binding, and water-holding capacities, which subsequently affect food matrices. The safety and quality of foodstuff containing PBPs depend on the proper source of plant proteins, the selection of processing approaches, and compliance with legal regulations for allergen labeling and safety evaluations. The safety concerns in allergenicity and toxicity were discussed. The conclusion is that food technologists must apply safe limits and consider potential allergenic components generated during the development of food products with PBPs. Therefore, functional food products containing PBPs can be a promising strategy to provide consumers with wholesome health benefits.

Comparative Seed Proteome Profile Reveals No Alternation of Major Allergens in High-Yielding Mung Bean Cultivars. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2024.

Abstract
Mung bean contains up to 32.6% protein and is one of the great sources of plant-based protein. Because many allergens also function as defense-related proteins, it is important to determine their abundance levels in the high-yielding, disease-resistant cultivars. In this study, for the first time, we compared the seed proteome of high-yielding mung bean cultivars developed by a conventional breeding approach. Using a label-free quantitative proteomic platform, we successfully identified and quantified a total of 1373 proteins. Comparative analysis between the high-yielding disease-resistant cultivar (MC5) and the other three cultivars showed that a total of 69 common proteins were significantly altered in their abundances across all cultivars. Bioinformatic analysis of these altered proteins demonstrated that PDF1 (a defensin-like protein) exhibited high sequence similarity and epitope matching with the established peanut allergens, indicating a potential mung bean allergen that showed a cultivar-specific response. Conversely, known mung bean allergen proteins such as PR-2/PR-10 (Vig r 1), Vig r 2, Vig r 4, LTP1, β-conglycinin, and glycinin G4 showed no alternation in the MC5 compared to other cultivars. Taken together, our findings suggest that the known allergen profiles may not be impacted by the conventional plant breeding method to develop improved mung bean cultivars.

Nutrition strategies to control post-weaning diarrhea of piglets: From the perspective of feeds. ANIMAL NUTRITION (ZHONGGUO XU MU SHOU YI XUE HUI) 2024; 17:297-311. [PMID: 38800731 PMCID: PMC11127239 DOI: 10.1016/j.aninu.2024.03.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Post-weaning diarrhea (PWD) is a globally significant threat to the swine industry. Historically, antibiotics as well as high doses of zinc oxide and copper sulfate have been commonly used to control PWD. However, the development of bacterial resistance and environmental pollution have created an interest in alternative strategies. In recent years, the research surrounding these alternative strategies and the mechanisms of piglet diarrhea has been continually updated. Mechanically, diarrhea in piglets is a result of an imbalance in intestinal fluid and electrolyte absorption and secretion. In general, enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) and diarrheal viruses are known to cause an imbalance in the absorption and secretion of intestinal fluids and electrolytes in piglets, resulting in diarrhea when Cl- secretion-driven fluid secretion surpasses absorptive capacity. From a perspective of feedstuffs, factors that contribute to imbalances in fluid absorption and secretion in the intestines of weaned piglets include high levels of crude protein (CP), stimulation by certain antigenic proteins, high acid-binding capacity (ABC), and contamination with deoxynivalenol (DON) in the diet. In response, efforts to reduce CP levels in diets, select feedstuffs with lower ABC values, and process feedstuffs using physical, chemical, and biological approaches are important strategies for alleviating PWD in piglets. Additionally, the diet supplementation with additives such as vitamins and natural products can also play a role in reducing the diarrhea incidence in weaned piglets. Here, we examine the mechanisms of absorption and secretion of intestinal fluids and electrolytes in piglets, summarize nutritional strategies to control PWD in piglets from the perspective of feeds, and provide new insights towards future research directions.

Abstract
Osteoporosis commonly occurs in the older people and severe patients, with the main reason of the imbalance of bone metabolism (the rate of bone resorption exceeding the rate of bone formation), resulting in a decrease in bone mineral density and destruction of bone microstructure and further leading to the increased risk of fragility fracture. Recent studies indicate that protein nutritional support is beneficial for attenuating osteoporosis and improving bone health. This review summarized the classical mechanisms of protein intervention for alleviating osteoporosis on both suppressing bone resorption and regulating bone formation related pathways (promoting osteoblasts generation and proliferation, enhancing calcium absorption, and increasing collagen and mineral deposition), as well as the potential novel mechanisms via activating autophagy of osteoblasts, altering bone related miRNA profiles, regulating muscle-bone axis, and modulating gut microbiota abundance. Protein nutritional intervention is expected to provide novel approaches for the prevention and adjuvant therapy of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Soybean allergen entering the body is the initial step to trigger intestinal allergic response. However, it remains unclear how glycinin, the major soybean allergen, is transported through the intestinal mucosal barrier. The objective of this study was to elucidate the pathway and mechanism of glycinin hydrolysate transport through the intestinal epithelial barrier using IPEC-J2 cell model. Purified glycinin was digested by in vitro static digestion model. The pathway and mechanism of glycinin hydrolysates transport through intestinal epithelial cells were investigated by cellular transcytosis assay, cellular uptake assay, immunoelectron microscopy and endocytosis inhibition assay. The glycinin hydrolysates were transported across IPEC-J2 cell monolayers in a time/dose-dependent manner following the Michaelis equation. Immunoelectron microscopy showed a number of glycinin hydrolysates appeared in the cytoplasm, but no glycinin hydrolysates were observed in the intercellular space of IPEC-J2 cells. The inhibitors, colchicine, chlorpromazine and methyl-β-cyclodextrin, significantly inhibited the cellular uptake of glycinin hydrolysates. The glycinin hydrolysates crossed IPEC-J2 cell monolayers through the transcellular pathway. Both clathrin- and caveolae-dependent endocytosis were involved in the epithelial uptake of the hydrolysates. These findings provided potential targets for the prevention and treatment of soybean allergy.

Abstract
Proteins can self-assemble into a range of nanostructures as a result of molecular interactions. Amyloid nanofibrils, as one of them, were first discovered with regard to the relevance of neurodegenerative diseases but now have been exploited as building blocks to generate multiscale materials with designed functions for versatile applications. This review interconnects the mechanism of amyloid fibrillation, the current approaches to synthesizing amyloid protein-based materials, and the application in bioplastic development. We focus on the fundamental structures of self-assembled amyloid fibrils and how external factors can affect protein aggregation to optimize the process. Protein self-assembly is essentially the autonomous congregation of smaller protein units into larger, organized structures. Since the properties of the self-assembly can be manipulated by changing intrinsic factors and external conditions, protein self-assembly serves as an excellent building block for bioplastic development. Building on these principles, general processing methods and pathways from raw protein sources to mature state materials are proposed, providing a guide for the development of large-scale production. Additionally, this review discusses the diverse properties of protein-based amyloid nanofibrils and how they can be utilized as bioplastics. The economic feasibility of the protein bioplastics is also compared to conventional plastics in large-scale production scenarios, supporting their potential as sustainable bioplastics for future applications.

Abstract
A strain of Bacillus subtilis (MAFIC Y7) was isolated from the intestine of Tibetan pigs and was able to express high protease activity. The aim of this study was to characterize the proteases produced by MAFIC Y7, and to investigate the effects of protease addition on growth performance, ileal amino acid digestibility, and serum immunoglobulin and immune factors of broilers fed SBM-based diets, or on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and intestinal morphology of broilers fed CSM-based diets. B. subtilis (MAFIC Y7) expressed protease showed its optimal enzyme activity at 50 °C and pH 7.0. The coated crude enzyme (CCE) showed greater stability at pH 3.0 than its uncoated counterpart. Experiment 1 was conducted with six diets based on three levels of crude protein (CP)-CPlow, CPmedium, and CPhigh-with or without CCE. In CPlow, CCE increased gain:feed (G:F) (days 1 to 21, days 1 to 42) by 8%, 3%, respectively, and enhanced apparent ileal digestibility (AID) of crude protein and lysine (on day 42) by 8.8%, 4.6%, respectively, compared with diets containing no CCE (P < 0.05). CCE increased G:F from days 1 to 21 from 0.63 to 0.68, improved G:F and average daily gain (ADG) during days 1 to 42, and enhanced AID of crude protein, lysine, cysteine, and isoleucine on day 42 compared with the unsupplemented treatments (in CPmedium, P < 0.05). CCE increased serum IgA (on day 21), serum IgA and IgG and increased serum IL-10 (on day 42), but decreased serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α; on day 21), and serum IL-8 and TNF-α (on day 42) compared with unsupplemented treatments. At CPhigh, CCE decreased serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α (on day 21), and IL-8 and TNF-α (on day 42) compared with unsupplemented treatments (in CPhigh, P < 0.05). In experiment 2, CSM-based diets with two lysine-to-protein ratios (5.2% or 5.5%) with or without CCE. In the high Lys diet (5.5% Lys:protein), CCE increased ADG and G:F, increased carcass, but decreased abdominal fat compared with the unsupplemented treatment (P < 0.05). In the 5.2% Lys:protein dietary treatment, CCE improved duodenal villus height compared with the unsupplemented treatment (P < 0.05). Supplementation of protease produced by MAFIC Y7 was associated with lower inflammatory responses in SBM diets (CPmedium or CPhigh) and improved ADG in broilers fed CPmedium or CPhigh. The proteases improved ADG and the efficiency of CSM use when the ratio of Lys to protein was 5.5%.

J Anim Sci 2024; 102:skae214. [PMID: 39066584 PMCID: PMC11367559 DOI: 10.1093/jas/skae214] [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: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Soybean meal is known to be able to cause intestinal damage and dysfunction in early-weaned piglets. However, research on natural compounds that can alleviate these effects is scarce. In this study, the effect of luteolin, a natural flavonoid, on intestinal health of piglets fed on a soybean meal-based diet was explored. A total of eighteen 21-d-old piglets were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups: a negative control group fed with an animal protein-based diet, a positive control group fed with a soybean meal-based diet, and a luteolin group that was fed with the positive control diet supplemented with luteolin. The results suggested that luteolin supplementation significantly increased the average daily gain and average daily feed intake of early-weaned piglets, while effectively reducing the diarrhea incidence. Additionally, luteolin supplementation lowered the levels of soybean antigen-specific immunoglobulin G and immunoglobulin E anitbodies, increased the superoxide dismutase activity in both sera and small intestine mucosa, and enhanced the total antioxidant capacity in sera. Further research found that luteolin supplementation increased the intestinal villi height and decreased the crypt depth, resulting in an increased ratio of villi to crypts. At the same time, it reduced the concentration of serum diamine oxidase, improving intestinal barrier function. Moreover, luteolin significantly decreased the gene expression of Bax and Caspase-3, reducing cell apoptosis in the intestinal mucosa. Luteolin supplementation also increased the abundance of Actinobacteria at the phylum level, reduced the abundance of Prevotella and increased the abundance of Olsenella at the genus level. In conclusion, the supplementation of luteolin to the soybean meal diet was capable of effectively reducing allergic response, enhancing the antioxidant capacity of early-weaned piglets, protecting their intestinal barrier function, inhibiting intestinal mucosal cell apoptosis, and altering the intestinal microbiota structure, therefore promoting intestinal health and improving production performance in early-weaned piglets.

Abstract
Soy allergenicity is a public concern, and the combination of multiple processing methods may be a promising strategy for reducing soy allergenicity. In this study, a novel two-step enzymatic hydrolysis followed by lactic acid bacteria fermentation was proposed for the construction of hypoallergenic soybean protein microgel. β-Conglycinin was used as the main soy allergen. The effects of different enzymatic hydrolysis (Alcalase, Neutrase, and Protamex) and LAB fermentation on β-conglycinin microgel formation and its immunoreactivity were investigated. Results showed that the use of different enzymes and the attainment of different degrees of hydrolysis affected the particle distribution and zeta potential in the microgels and leads to differences in microstructure and immunoreactivity. All hydrolysates compared with intact protein accelerated the formation of gel during LAB fermentation. Among the three assayed enzymes, fermented Protamex hydrolysates at 60 min (PF-60) demonstrated a microgel with an overall reduced average particle size (741.20±7.18 nm), lower absolute values of zeta potential (10.43±0.65 mV), and regular gel network. The antigenicity and IgE-binding capacity decreased to the lowest value of 0.30 % and 6.93 %, respectively. Peptidomics and immunoinformatic analysis suggested that PF-60 disrupted 17/30, 16/44, and 23/75 epitopes in the α, α', and β subunits, respectively. Unlike the LAB-fermented unhydrolyzed β-conglycinin disrupted epitopes mostly located at the loop domain, PF-60 primarily promoted the exposure and disruption of allergen epitopes with β-sheet structure located at the core barrel domain. These findings can provide new perspectives on the preparation of hypoallergenic soybean-gel products on edible particulate systems.

Abstract
Soy allergens are susceptible to inducing allergic reactions in infants and young animals, which have an impact on the effective daily utilization of proteins. In this study, we used Alcalase-hydrolyzed instant soybean powder (ISP) to clarify the sensitization changes of instant soybean powder hydrolysates (ISPH), and we explored the assisted memory-enhancing effects. BALB/c mice in the ISPH group showed significant improvement in the allergy symptoms, with their allergy symptom scores decreasing to (1.57 ± 0.53) and their specific serum IgE and IgG1 binding capacity decreasing by 28.00 and 25.73% (P < 0.05), which suppressed the mast cell degranulation rate. Meanwhile, the plasma HIS and IL-4 levels decreased by 12.59 and 25.32%, and the plasma INF-γ and IL- 10 levels increased by 30.64 and 27.79%, which obviously regulated the imbalance of Th1/Th2 cells and attenuated the tissue damage (P < 0.05). Furthermore, ISPH improved behavioral characteristics, increased cholinergic system activity, reduced neuronal cell damage or apoptosis, and increased the number of Nissl bodies to help improve memory in Kunming mice (P < 0.05). In general, alcalase-hydrolyzed ISP had the dual effects of reducing allergenicity and aiding in memory improvement.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 249:126026. [PMID: 37506791 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126026] [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: 03/15/2023] [Revised: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023]
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
Currently, growing concerns about sustainable development and health awareness have driven the development of plant-based meat substitutes. Soybean proteins (SPs) are eco-friendly and high-quality food sources with well-balanced amino acids to meet consumer demand. The functionality and physicochemical attributes of SPs can be improved by appropriate processing and modification. With the burgeoning advances of modern processing technologies in the food industry, a multitude of functional foods and ingredients can be manufactured based on SPs. This review mainly highlights the conformational changes of SPs under traditional and emerging processing technologies and the resultant functionality modifications. By elucidating the relationship between processing-induced structural and functional alterations, detailed and systematic insights are provided regarding the exploitation of these techniques to develop different nutritional and functional soybean products. Some popular methods to modify SPs properties are discussed in this paper, including thermal treatment, fermentation, enzyme catalysis, high hydrostatic pressure, high-intensity ultrasound, atmospheric cold plasma, high-moisture extrusion, glycosylation, pulsed ultraviolet light and interaction with polyphenols. Given these processing technologies, it is promising to expand the application market for SPs and boost the advancement of the soybean industry.

Abstract
Glycinin is an important allergen in soybeans. In this study, molecular cloning and recombinant phage construction were performed to explore the antigenic sites of the glycinin A3 subunit that were denatured during processing. Next, the A-1-a fragment was located as the denatured antigenic sites by indirect ELISA. The combined UHP heat treatment showed better denaturation of this subunit than the single heat treatment assay. In addition, identification of the synthetic peptide showed that the A-1-a fragment was an amino acid sequence containing a conformational and linear IgE site, in which the first synthetic peptide (P1) being both an antigenic and allergenic site. The results of alanine-scanning showed that the key amino acids affecting antigenicity and allergenicity of A3 subunit were S28, K29, E32, L35 and N13. Our results could provide the basis for further development of more efficient methods to reduce the allergenicity of soybeans.

Abstract
Solid-state fermentation is known to improve plant-based feed nutritional quality; however, the association between microbes and metabolite production in fermented feed remains unclear. We inoculated corn-soybean-wheat bran (CSW) meal feed with Bacillus licheniformis Y5-39, Bacillus subtilis B-1, and lactic acid bacteria RSG-1. Then, 16S rDNA sequencing and untargeted metabolomic profiling were applied to investigate changes in the microflora and metabolites, respectively, and their integrated correlations during fermentation were assessed. The results indicated that trichloroacetic acid soluble protein levels showed a sharp increase, while glycinin and β-conglycinin levels showed a sharp decrease in the fermented feed, as confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Pediococcus, Enterococcus, and Lactobacillus were predominant in the fermented feed. Overall, 699 significantly different metabolites were identified before and after fermentation. Arginine and proline, cysteine and methionine, and phenylalanine and tryptophan metabolism were the key pathways, with arginine and proline metabolism being the most important pathway in the fermentation process. By analyzing the correlation between the microbiota and metabolite production, lysyl-valine and lysyl-proline levels were found to be positively correlated with Enterococcus and Lactobacillus abundance. However, Pediococcus was positively correlated with some metabolites contributing to nutritional status and immune function. According to our data, Pediococcus, Enterococcus, and Lactobacillus mainly participate in protein degradation, amino acid metabolism, and lactic acid production in fermented feed. Our results provide new insights into the dynamic changes in metabolism that occurred during the solid-state fermentation of corn-soybean meal feed using compound strains and should facilitate the optimization of fermentation production efficiency and feed quality.

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
Food enzymes have an important role in the improvement of certain food characteristics, such as texture improvement, elimination of toxins and allergens, production of carbohydrates, enhancing flavor/appearance characteristics. Recently, along with the development of artificial meats, food enzymes have been employed to achieve more diverse functions, especially in converting non-edible biomass to delicious foods. Reported food enzyme modifications for specific applications have highlighted the significance of enzyme engineering. However, using direct evolution or rational design showed inherent limitations due to the mutation rates, which made it difficult to satisfy the stability or specific activity needs for certain applications. Generating functional enzymes using de novo design, which highly assembles naturally existing enzymes, provides potential solutions for screening desired enzymes. Here, we describe the functions and applications of food enzymes to introduce the need for food enzymes engineering. To illustrate the possibilities of using de novo design for generating diverse functional proteins, we reviewed protein modelling and de novo design methods and their implementations. The future directions for adding structural data for de novo design model training, acquiring diversified training data, and investigating the relationship between enzyme-substrate binding and activity were highlighted as challenges to overcome for the de novo design of food enzymes.

Multi-spectral and proteomic insights into the impact of proanthocyanidins on IgE binding capacity and functionality in soy 11S protein during alkali-heating treatment. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 226:597-607. [PMID: 36509204 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.12.067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2022] [Revised: 12/04/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
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.

Abstract
Protease biocatalysis in a high-salt environment is very attractive for applications in the detergent industry, the production of diagnostic kits, and traditional food fermentation. However, high-salt conditions can reduce protease activity or even inactivate enzymes. Herein, in order to explore new protease sources, we expressed a salt-tolerant pseudolysin of Pseudomonas aeruginosa SWJSS3 isolated from deep-sea mud in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. After optimizing the concentration of ion cofactors in yeast peptone dextrose (YPD) medium, the proteolytic activity in the supernatant was 2.41 times more than that in the control group when supplemented with 5 mM CaCl2 and 0.4 mM ZnCl2. The extracellular proteolytic activity of pseudolysin reached 258.95 U/mL with optimized expression cassettes. In addition, the S. cerevisiae expression system increased the salt tolerance of pseudolysin to sodium chloride (NaCl)and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and the recombinant pseudolysin retained 15.19% activity when stored in 3 M NaCl for 7 days. The recombinant pseudolysin was able to efficiently degrade the β-conglycinin from low-denatured soy protein isolates and glycinin from high-denatured soy protein isolates under high temperatures (60 °C) and high-salt (3 M NaCl) conditions. Our study provides a salt-tolerant recombinant protease with promising applications in protein hydrolysis under high-salt conditions.

ELISA Based Immunoreactivity Reduction of Soy Allergens through Thermal Processing. Processes (Basel) 2022.

Abstract
Allergens are proteins and are, therefore, likely to be denatured when subjected to thermal treatment. Traditional cooking has so far been able to reduce allergen sensitivity by around 70–90%. This study was aimed at evaluating the effect of a broad range of thermal treatments on the reduction of soy immunoreactivity (IR) in a 5% slurry using a sandwich ELISA technique. Cooking at 100 °C (10–60 min) and different thermal processing conditions, such as in commercial sterilization (with a process lethality (Fo) between 3 and 5 min) and selected severe thermal processing conditions (Fo > 5 and up to 23 min) were used in the study to evaluate their influence on allergen IR. Based on an IR comparison with an internal soy allergen standard, the allergen concentration in the untreated soy sample was calculated to be equivalent to 333 mg/kg (ppm). Cooking conditions only reduced the IR sensitivity to about 10 mg/kg (~1.5 log reductions), while the thermal processing treatments lowered the allergen IR up to 23 × 10−3 mg/kg (or 23 ppb) (>4 log reductions). FTIR analysis indicated significant changes in protein structure resulting from the thermal processing treatments, with a higher degree of allergen reduction corresponding with a higher value of random coil percentages. The influence of process severity on color and rheological properties was, however, minimal.

Abstract
Soybean allergy is a health-threatening issue and identifying raw soybeans with low allergenicity is important for producing hypoallergenic soybean products. Soybean allergy is mainly triggered by soybean proteins. In this study, the protein profiles, allergen compositions, and epitopes in protein from different soybean cultivars (R1, R2 and R3) were evaluated by SDS-PAGE and LC/MS-MS, and their allergenicity was assessed by indirect ELISA and Western blot analysis using the serum IgE of patients allergic to soybeans. The lowest allergenicity was observed in R3, probably resulting from the low concentration of Gly m 4-Gly m 6. The allergenicity of soybeans is affected by multiple allergens rather than a single allergen. Venn diagram, PCA, heatmap, and peptide map analyses have shown the differences in protein and peptide profiles among soybean proteins from different soybean cultivars. Epitope analysis further demonstrated that low contents of dominant epitopes in Gly m 4 and Gly m 5 contributed to low allergenicity in R3, although R3 contained high contents of no-dominant epitopes.

Abstract
Food allergy has been indicated as the most frequent adverse reaction to food ingredients over the past few years. Since the only way to avoid the occurrence of allergic phenomena is to eliminate allergenic foods, it is essential to have complete and accurate information on the components of foodstuff. In this framework, it is mandatory and crucial to provide fast, cost-effective, affordable, and reliable analysis methods for the screening of specific allergen content in food products. This review reports the research advancements concerning food allergen detection, involving electrochemical biosensors. It focuses on the sensing strategies evidencing different types of recognition elements such as antibodies, nucleic acids, and cells, among others, the nanomaterial role, the several electrochemical techniques involved and last, but not least, the ad hoc electrodic surface modification approaches. Moreover, a selection of the most recent electrochemical sensors for allergen detection are reported and critically analyzed in terms of the sensors’ analytical performances. Finally, advantages, limitations, and potentialities for practical applications of electrochemical biosensors for allergens are discussed.

Abstract
The present study aimed to isolate and characterize proteolytic Bacillus spp. from termite guts to test the possibility of application for improving the nutritional value and bioactivity of fermented soybean meal (FSBM). Aerobic endospore-forming bacteria were isolated from the gut of the termite Termes propinquus. Ten isolates with high levels of soy milk degradation were selected and tested for extracellular enzyme production. Among them, two isolates, Tp-5 and Tp-7, exhibited all tested hydrolytic enzyme activities (cellulase, xylanase, pectinase, amylase, protease, lipase and phytase), weak alpha hemolytic and also antagonistic activities against fish pathogenic species of Aeromonas and Streptococcus. Both phylogenetic and biochemical analyses indicated that they were closely related to Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. During solid-state fermentation of SBM, Tp-5 and Tp-7 exhibited the highest protease activity (1127.2 and 1552.4 U g-1, respectively) at 36 h, and the resulting FSBMs showed a significant increase in crude protein content and free radical-scavenging ability (P < 0.05), as well as an improvement in the composition of amino acids, metabolites and other nutrients, while indigestible materials such as fiber, lignin and hemicellulose were decreased. The potential strains, especially Tp-7, improved the nutritional value of FSBM by their strong hydrolytic and antioxidant activities, together with reducing antinutritional components.

Abstract
Schinus terebinthifolius, Raddi, has been extensively studied due to its anti-inflammatory and antibiotic properties. S. terebinthifolius was also toxic to some insects, however little has been explored about the nature of its insecticide compounds or the toxicity of this plant to insect species. In this work, we investigate the toxicity of S. terebinthifolius seed flour against the insect C. maculatus. S. terebinthifolius seed flour interfered with the post hatch development of the C. maculatus larvae, decreasing larval survival, mass and length. Using DEAE-cellulose chromatography, five protein fractions were isolated, a non-retained fraction (NRF) and four retained fractions, eluted with 0.25, 0.5, 0.7 and 1.0 M NaCl. Proteins with varying molecular masses were observed in all fractions. The majority protein bands were identified by mass spectrometry analysis and among the main identified proteins are 11S globulins (such glycinin), lipoxygenase, chitinases, 7S globulins (vicilins, canavalin and β conglycinin), annexin, catalase and sucrose binding protein. All DEAE-protein fractions were toxic to the insect, interfering with the post hatch larval development and survival. Decreases greater than 90% were observed in the larval mass and length at 20 days after oviposition (DAO) for larvae raised on diet containing 0.5% of some fractions. Alterations in the level of proteins, glucose and in the activity of the enzymes lipases and cysteine proteases were also detected in these larvae. Our results show that seeds of S. terebinthifolius have an arsenal of toxic proteins with potential for the control of the insect C. maculatus.

Abstract
Protein allergens is a health risk for consumption of soybeans. To understand allerginicity mechanism, T cell epitopes of 7 soybean allergens were predicted and screened by abilities to induce cytokine interleukin (IL) 4. The relationships among amino acid composition, properties, allergenicity, and pepsin hydrolysis sites were analyzed. Among the 138 T cell epitopes identified, YIKDVFRVIPSEVLS, KDVFRVIPSEVLSNS, DVFRVIPSEVLSNSY of Gly m 6.0501 (P04347), and AKADALFKAIEAYLL, ADALFKAIEAYLLAH of Gly m 4.0101 (P26987) were the most possible epitope candidates. In T cell epitopes pattern, the frequencies of amino acids Q, D, E, P, and G decreased, while F, I, N, V, K, H, A, L, and S increased. Hydrophobic residues at positions p1 and p2 and positively charged residues in positions p13 might contribute to allergenicity. Most of epitopes could be hydrolyzed by pepsin into small polypeptides within 12 residues length, and the anti-digestive epitope regions contained I, V, S, N, and Q residues. T cell epitopes EEQRQQEGVIVELSK from Gly m 5.03 (P25974) showed resistance to pepsin hydrolysis and would cause a higher Th2 cell response. This research provides basis for the development of hypoallergenic soybean products in the soybean industry as well as for the immunotherapy design for protein allergy.

[PMID: 35010970 PMCID: PMC8747086 DOI: 10.3390/nu14010095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2021] [Revised: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 12/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Increased triglyceride, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels cause hyperlipidemia. Despite the availability of statin-based drugs to reduce LDL levels, additional effective treatments for reducing blood lipid concentrations are required. Herein, soybean hydrolysate prepared via peptic and tryptic hydrolysis promoted trans-intestinal cholesterol excretion (TICE) by increasing ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 5 (ABCG5) and ABCG8 expression. The peptide sequence capable of promoting TICE was determined via HPLC and LC-MS/MS. Based on this, pure artificial peptides were synthesized, and the efficacy of the selected peptides was verified using cellular and hyperlipidemic mouse models. Soybean hydrolysates, including two bioactive peptides (ALEPDHRVESEGGL and SLVNNDDRDSYRLQSGDAL), promoted TICE via the expression of ABCG5 and ABCG8 in enterocytes. They downregulated expression of hepatic cytochrome P450 family 7 subfamily A member 1 (CYP7A1) and CYP8B1 via expression of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) in a liver X receptor α (LXRa)-dependent pathway. Administration of bioactive peptides to hyperlipidemic mouse models by oral gavage reduced cholesterol levels in serum via upregulation of ABCG5 and ABCG8 expression in the proximal intestine and through fecal cholesterol excretion, upregulated FGF 15/19 expression, and suppressed hepatic bile acid synthesis. Oral administration of soybean-derived bioactive peptides elicited hypolipidemic effects by increasing TICE and decreasing hepatic cholesterol synthesis.

Comparative effects of enzymatic soybean, fish meal and milk powder in diets on growth performance, immunological parameters, SCFAs production and gut microbiome of weaned piglets. J Anim Sci Biotechnol 2021; 12:106. [PMID: 34615550 PMCID: PMC8496045 DOI: 10.1186/s40104-021-00625-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2021] [Accepted: 08/01/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The objective of this study was to evaluate the replacement effects of milk powder (MK) and fish meal (FM) by enzymatic soybean (ESB) in diets on growth performance, immunological parameters, SCFAs production and gut microbiome of weaned piglets. Methods A total of 128 piglets with initial body weight at 6.95 ± 0.46 kg, were randomly assigned into 4 dietary treatments with 8 replicates per treatment and 4 piglets per replicate for a period of 14 d. Piglets were offered iso-nitrogenous and iso-energetic diets as follows: CON diet with MK and FM as high quality protein sources, ESB plus FM diet with ESB replacing MK, ESB plus MK diet with ESB replacing FM, and ESB diet with ESB replacing both MK and FM. Results No significant differences were observed in growth performance among all treatments (P > 0.05). However, piglets fed ESB plus FM or ESB diet had increased diarrhea index (P<0.01), and lower digestibility of dry matter (DM), gross energy (GE) or crude protein (CP), relative to piglets fed CON diet (P < 0.01). Moreover, the inclusion of ESB in diet markedly decreased the plasma concentration of HPT and fecal concentration of butyric acid (BA) (P<0.01). The High-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene V3−V4 region of gut microbiome revealed that the inclusion of ESB in diet increased the alpha diversity, and the linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) showed that piglets fed with ESB plus FM or ESB diet contained more gut pathogenic bacteria, such as g_Peptococcus, g_Veillonella and g_Helicobacter. Conclusion The inclusion of ESB in diet did not markedly affect growth performance of piglets, but the replacement of MK or both MK and FM by ESB increased diarrhea index, which could be associated with lower nutrients digestibility and more gut pathogenic bacteria. However, piglets fed diet using ESB to replace FM did not markedly affect gut health-related parameters, indicating the potential for replacing FM with ESB in weaning diet.

Assessment of Intestinal Immunity and Permeability of Broilers on Partial Replacement Diets of Two-Stage Fermented Soybean Meal by Bacillus velezensis and Lactobacillus brevis ATCC 367. Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11082336. [PMID: 34438793 PMCID: PMC8388759 DOI: 10.3390/ani11082336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 08/04/2021] [Accepted: 08/05/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The effect of soybean peptides from fermented soybean meal on the intestinal immunity and tight junction of broilers was assessed. Roughly, two-stage fermented soybean meal prepared with Bv and Lb (FSBMB+L), which has nearly three times higher soluble peptides than soybean meal (SBM), and reduced galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS) content and allergen protein. The one-stage fermented by Bv (FSBMB) has the highest soluble peptides, while commercial lactic acid bacteria (FSBML) has the highest Lactic acid bacteria count; these were used to compare the differences in the process. Ross308 broilers (n = 320) were divided into four groups: SBM diet and a diet replaced with 6% FSBMB+L, FSBMB, or FSBML. The growth performance was recorded during the experiment, and six birds (35-day-old) per group were euthanized. Analysis of their jejunum and ileum showed that the fermented soybean meal significantly improved the villus height in the jejunum (p < 0.05) and reduced the crypt hyperplasia. The FSBMB group had the highest reducing crypt depth; however, the FSBMB+L group had the highest villus height/crypt depth in the ileum (p < 0.05). In the jejunum, the relative mRNA of CLDN-1 and Occludin increased 2-fold in the treatments, and ZO-1 mRNA increased 1.5 times in FSBML and FSBMB+L (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the level of NF-κB and IL-6 mRNAs in FSBML increased, respectively, by 4 and 2.5 times. While FSBMB, along with FSBMB+L, had a 1.5-fold increase in the mRNA of IL-10, that of NF-κB increased 2-fold. FSBMB+L and FSBMB singly led to a 2- and 3-fold increase in IL-6 mRNA, respectively (p < 0.05). FSBMB and FSBMB+L can also upregulate MUC2 in the jejunum (p < 0.05). In short, using the soybean peptides from two-stage fermented soybean meal can ameliorate the negative factors of SBM and effectively regulate immune expression and intestinal repair, which will help broilers maintain intestinal integrity.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of fermented soymilk (FSM) with Lactobacillus brevis CICC 23,474 and L. brevis CICC 23,470 on the structural changes and allergenicity of major allergenic proteins in soymilk (SM). Spectroscopy and liquid chromatograph-tandem mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS) were used to characterize changes in protein spatial structure and epitopes. The antigenicity and potential allergenicity were evaluated by immunoblotting, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and KU812 cell degranulation assay. Results suggested that the advanced structure of proteins was destroyed. Antigenicity was also significantly reduced, and five human IgE-binding linear epitopes (i.e., E5-E33, R27-S41, D414-A437, G253-I265 and V449-S471) were destroyed by fermentation. Furthermore, after in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestion, FSM showed lower IgG/IgE-binding capacity and weaker degranulation ability of KU812 cells. All these findings demonstrated that fermentation with Lactobacillus can destroy the conformational and linear epitopes of proteins and reduce the potential allergenicity of SM.

Abstract
Protein digestibility of soybean obtained from the main manufacturing steps for natto, such as soaking (soaked soybeans 'S'), boiling (boiled soybeans 'B'), and fermentation (fermented soybeans 'F'), was examined in this study. Biochemical indices for the processed soybeans from each manufacturing step and those digested fractions by simulated in vitro gastrointestinal digestion were also evaluated. The result showed a significant (P < 0.05) increase in the protein digestibility of B (48.71 ± 0.04%) and F (50.21 ± 0.45%) compared to that of S (20.58 ± 0.25%), accompanying the accumulation of small protein sub-fractions and essential amino acids. Besides, antioxidant activity indices of all digested fractions increased around two to fourfold at the end of the simulated digestion. F showed a consistently increasing trend when the digestion stage progressed and maximum values overall at the final digestion stage. Soybeans from fermentation step showed higher protein digestibility and indispensable amino acids as well as potential bioactivities than those from boiling and soaking step. The results demonstrated that manufacturing steps improved nutritional values of soybean protein, such as bioavailability of amino acids and certain bioactivities.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the dynamic process of soybean β-conglycinin in digestion, absorption, and metabolism in the intestine of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). Fish fed with 80 g β-conglycinin/kg diet for 7 weeks, the intestinal digestive enzyme was extracted to hydrolyze β-conglycinin in vitro, the free amino acid and its metabolism product contents in intestinal segments were analyzed. The present study first found that β-conglycinin cannot be thoroughly digested by fish intestine digestive enzyme and produces new products (about 60- and 55-kDa polypeptides). The indigestible β-conglycinin further caused the free amino acid imbalance, especially caused free essential amino acid deficiency in the proximal intestine but excess in the distal intestine. Moreover, these results might be partly associated with the effect of β-conglycinin in amino acid transporters and tight junction-regulated paracellular pathway. Finally, dietary β-conglycinin increased the content of amino acid catabolism by-product ammonia while decreased the amino acid anabolism product carnosine content in the proximal intestine and distal intestine. Thus, the current study first and systemically explored the dynamic process of β-conglycinin in digestion, absorption, and metabolism, which further supported our previous study that dietary β-conglycinin suppressed fish growth and caused intestine injure.

Abstract
Gly m Bd 60 K, which is the α subunit of β-conglycinin, is a major soybean (Glycine max) allergen. We used high hydrostatic pressure (HHP), thermal techniques, and glycation to treat β-conglycinin, which can effectively reduce the antigenicity of β-conglycinin. β-conglycinin was used to immunize New Zealand rabbits, and the antiserum had a titer > 1: 1 × 105 and an IC50 of 2.254 μg/mL. β-conglycinin was subjected to HHP, thermal techniques, and glycation and mixed with rabbit antiserum against β-conglycinin to obtain the site-specific antiserum. The overlapping gene fragments of Gly m Bd 60 K were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), then cloned into a T7 phage vector and packaged in vitro, the recombinant T7 phages were constructed. Indirect ELISA (iELISA) was used to locate the destroyed antigenic sites and, after three rounds of segment expression and identification, the C2-1 and C2-2 fragments were identified as destroyed antigenic sites of Gly m Bd 60 K. Allergenicity analysis showed that the C2-1 and C2-2 fragments reacted with allergic patients' serum, which indicated that the destroyed sites were allergic sites.

Abstract
Food allergy is an IgE-mediated abnormal response to otherwise harmless food proteins, affecting between 5% and 10% of the world preschool children population and 1% to 5% adults. Several physical, chemical, and biotechnological approaches have been used to reduce the allergenicity of food allergens. Fermentation processes that contribute to technological and desirable changes in taste, flavor, digestibility, and texture of food products constitute one of these approaches. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), used as starter cultures in dairy products, are a subject of increasing interest in fermentation of plant proteins. However, the studies designed to assess the impact of LAB on reduction of allergenicity of seed proteins are at an early stage. This review presents the current knowledge on food fermentation, with a focus on seed proteins that are increasingly used as ingredients, and its impacts on food potential allergenicity.

Abstract
In recent years, increased awareness of the health benefits associated with consuming soy-based foods, knowledge of milk-related allergies and a move towards more sustainable food production have led to an increase in the number of available soy-based products. The biggest producers in the world, the USA, South America and China, are from the Pacific region. This enormous production is accompanied by the accumulation of related by-products, in particular, a substance that is known as okara. Okara is a paste that is rich in fibre (50%), protein (25%), fat (10%), vitamins and trace elements. Its proper use would lead to economic advantages and a reduction in the potential for polluting the environment. Its high fibre content and low production costs mean that it could also be used as a dietary supplement to prevent diabetes, obesity and hyperlipidaemia. Chemical or enzymatic treatment, fermentation, extrusion, high pressure and micronisation can all increase the soluble fibre content, and thus improve nutritional quality and processing properties. However, the product also degrades rapidly due to its high moisture content (70-80%), which makes it difficult to handle and expensive to dry by conventional means. The aim of this paper is therefore to thoroughly study the existing literature on this subject in order to develop a general protocol for okara exploitation and valorisation. A cost/benefit analysis could drive the design of eco-friendly, sustainable protocols for the preparation of high-value nutritional products.
