Abstract
In this study, food-grade glutamine transaminase (TGase) was utilized for the green-catalyzed preparation of N-butyryl amino acids. For improving the reusability of the enzyme preparation, immobilized TG enzyme (94.23% immobilization rate) was prepared. Furthermore, the yield of N-butyryl phenylalanine (BP) synthesized by TGase was obtained as 20.73% by one-factor experiment. The BP synthesis yield of immobilized TGase was 95.03% of that of TGase and remained above 60% of the initial enzyme activity after five runs. The sensory evaluation and E-tongue results showed that the addition of BP significantly increased the umami, saltiness, and richness intensities of the samples, and decreased the intensities of sourness, bitterness, and aftertaste-B. The molecular docking results indicated that hydrogen bonding dominated the binding of BP to taste receptors in the taste presentation mechanism of BP. These results confirmed the potential of BP as a flavor enhancer with promising applications in the food industry.

Food Chem 2024; 454:139718. [PMID: 38795620 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139718] [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: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
N-lauroyl-L-tryptophan (LT), which has the strongest potential flavor-presenting activity, was skillfully screened from numerous N-Lau-AAs docked to different taste receptors by molecular simulation techniques. Subsequently, LT was synthesized employing food-grade commercial enzymes and structurally characterized, the optimized yields of LT could reach 69.08%, 76.16%, and 50.40%, respectively. Sensory and E-tongue evaluations showed that LT at 1 mg/L significantly benefited the performance of different taste sensations and exhibited different bitter taste masking effects: L-Ile (68.42%), L-Trp (68.18%), D-salicylic acid (48.48%) and quinine (35.00%). The molecular docking results illustrated that LT had a high affinity for various taste receptors, dominated by hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. This work provided a rare systematic elucidation of the potential and mechanism of enzymatically synthesized LT in enhancing taste properties. It provides novel insights into the directions and strategies for the excavation and innovation of flavor enhancers and food flavors.

Abstract
Salt is important for food flavor, but excessive sodium intake leads to adverse health consequences. Thus, salty and saltiness-enhancing peptides are developed for sodium-reduction products. This review elucidates saltiness perception process and analyses correlation between the peptide structure and saltiness-enhancing ability. These peptides interact with taste receptors to produce saltiness perception, including ENaC, TRPV1, and TMC4. This review also outlines preparation, isolation, purification, characterization, screening, and assessment techniques of these peptides and discusses their potential applications. These peptides are from various sources and produced through enzymatic hydrolysis, microbial fermentation, or Millard reaction and then separated, purified, identified, and screened. Sensory evaluation, electronic tongue, bioelectronic tongue, and cell and animal models are the primary saltiness assessment approaches. These peptides can be used in sodium-reduction food products to produce "clean label" items, and the peptides with biological activity can also serve as functional ingredients, making them very promising for food industry.

Abstract
To satisfy the demands of the food industry, innovative flavor enhancers need to be developed urgently to increase the food flavor. In our work, N-lauroyl phenylalanine (LP) was prepared from phenylalanine (l-Phe) and lauric acid (Lau) in water through the use of commercial enzymes (Promatex, Sumizyme FP-G, and Trypsin), and its flavor-presenting properties and mechanism were investigated. The highest LP yields obtained under one-factor optimized conditions were 61.28, 63.43, and 77.58%, respectively. Sensory assessment and an e-tongue test revealed that 1 mg/L LP enhanced the kokumi, saltiness, and umami of the simulated chicken broth solution and attenuated the bitterness of the l-isoleucine solution. The molecular simulation results suggested that the mechanisms of LP enhancement of kokumi and umami were related to hCaSR and hT1R1-hT1R3, and that hydrophobic forces and hydrogen bonds were involved in the binding of LP to taste receptors. The results implied that LP is a potential flavor enhancer for food applications.

Sensoproteomic Characterization of Lactobacillus Johnsonii-Fermented Pea Protein-Based Beverage: A Promising Strategy for Enhancing Umami and Kokumi Sensations while Mitigating Bitterness. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2024; 72:15875-15889.

Abstract
This study investigated the mechanism underlying the flavor improvement observed during fermentation of a pea protein-based beverage using Lactobacillus johnsonii NCC533. A combination of sensomics and sensoproteomics approach revealed that the fermentation process enriched or generated well-known basic taste ingredients, such as amino acids, nucleotides, organic acids, and dipeptides, besides six new taste-active peptide sequences that enhance kokumi and umami notes. The six new umami and kokumi enhancing peptides, with human recognition thresholds ranging from 0.046 to 0.555 mM, are produced through the degradation of Pisum sativum's storage protein. Our findings suggest that compounds derived from fermentation enhance umami and kokumi sensations and reduce bitterness, thus improving the overall flavor perception of pea proteins. In addition, the analysis of intraspecific variations in the proteolytic activity of L. johnsonii and the genome-peptidome correlation analysis performed in this study point at cell-wall-bound proteinases such as PrtP and PrtM as the key genes necessary to initiate the flavor improving proteolytic cascade. This study provides valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the flavor improvement of pea protein during fermentation and identifies potential future research directions. The results highlight the importance of combining fermentation and senso(proteo)mics techniques in developing tastier and more palatable plant-based protein products.

Abstract
Innovating food additives stands as a cornerstone for the sustainable evolution of future food systems. Peptides derived from food proteins exhibit a rich array of physicochemical and biological attributes crucial for preserving the appearance, flavor, texture, and nutritional integrity of foods. Leveraging these peptides as raw materials holds great promise for the development of novel food additives. While numerous studies underscore the potential of peptides as food additives, existing reviews predominantly focus on their biotic applications, leaving a notable gap in the discourse around their abiotic functionalities, such as their physicochemical properties. Addressing this gap, this review offers a comprehensive survey of peptide-derived food additives in food systems, accentuating the application of peptides' abiotic properties. It furnishes a thorough exploration of the underlying mechanisms and diverse applications of peptide-derived food additives, while also delineating the challenges encountered and prospects for future applications. This well-time review will set the stage for a deeper understanding of peptide-derived food additives.

Abstract
The current animal-based production of protein-rich foods is unsustainable, especially in light of continued population growth. New alternative proteinaceous foods are therefore required. Solid-state fermented plant foods from Africa and Asia include several mold- and Bacillus-fermented foods such as tempeh, sufu, and natto. These fermentations improve the protein digestibility of the plant food materials while also creating unique textures, flavors, and taste sensations. Understanding the nature of these transformations is of crucial interest to inspire the development of new plant-protein foods. In this review, we describe the conversions taking place in the plant food matrix as a result of these solid-state fermentations. We also summarize how these (nonlactic) plant food fermentations can lead to desirable flavor properties, such as kokumi and umami sensations, and improve the protein quality by removing antinutritional factors and producing additional essential amino acids in these foods.

Abstract
Kokumi is a subtle sensation characterized by a sense of fullness, continuity, and thickness. Traditional methods of taste discovery and analysis, including those of kokumi, have been labor-intensive and costly, thus necessitating the emergence of computational methods as critical strategies in molecular taste analysis and prediction. In this study, we undertook a comprehensive analysis, prediction, and screening of the kokumi compounds. We categorized 285 kokumi compounds from a previously unreleased kokumi database into five groups based on their molecular characteristics. Moreover, we predicted kokumi/non-kokumi and multi-flavor compositions using six structure-taste relationship models: MLP-E3FP, MLP-PLIF, MLP-RDKFP, SVM-RDKFP, RF-RDKFP, and WeaveGNN feature of Atoms and Bonds. These six predictors exhibited diverse performance levels across two different models. For kokumi/non-kokumi prediction, the WeaveGNN model showed an exceptional predictive AUC value (0.94), outperforming the other models (0.87, 0.90, 0.89, 0.92, and 0.78). For multi-flavor prediction, the MLP-E3FP model demonstrated a higher predictive AUC and MCC value (0.94 and 0.74) than the others (0.73 and 0.33; 0.92 and 0.70; 0.95 and 0.73; 0.94 and 0.64; and 0.88 and 0.69). This data highlights the model's proficiency in accurately predicting kokumi molecules. As a result, we sourced kokumi active compounds through a high-throughput screening of over 100 million molecules, further refined by toxicity and similarity screening. Lastly, we launched a web platform, KokumiPD (https://www.kokumipd.com/), offering a comprehensive kokumi database and online prediction services for users.

Abstract
Agaricus bisporus contains amino acids associated with thickness and full-mouthfeel, making it a potential candidate for salt substitutes and flavor enhancers in various food applications. Kokumi peptides were isolated from the enzymatic digest of Agaricus bisporus using ultrafiltration nanofiltration, gel chromatographic separation, and RP-HPLC, coupled with sensory evaluation. Subsequently, the peptides, EWVPVTK and EYPPLGR, were selected for solid-phase synthesis based on molecular docking. Sensory analysis, including thresholds, time intensity, and dose-configuration relationships, indicated that EWVPVTK and EYPPLGR exhibited odor thresholds of 0.6021 mmol L-1 and 2.332 mmol L-1 in an aqueous solution. Molecular docking scores correlated with low sensory thresholds, signifying strong taste sensitivities. EWVPVTK, in particular, demonstrated a higher sense of richness at lower concentrations compared to EYPPLGR. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations elucidated that the interactions between Kokumi peptides and the CaSR receptor primarily involved hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, and hydrophobic interactions. Both EWVPVTK and EYPPLGR exhibited stable binding to the CaSR receptor. Active binding sites were identified, with EWVPVTK interacting at Arg 66, Asp 216, Gln 245, and Asn 102, while EYPPLGR engaged with Ser 272, Gln 193, Glu 297, Ala-298, Tyr-2, and Agr-66 in hydrophilic interactions through hydrogen bonds. Notably, these two Kokumi peptides were found to be enriched in umami and sweet amino acids, underscoring their pivotal role in umami perception. This study not only identifies novel Kokumi peptides from Agaricus bisporus but also contributes theoretical foundations and insights for future studies in the realm of Kokumi peptides.

Abstract
Yeast extract, a widely utilized natural substance in the food industry and biopharmaceutical field, holds significant potential for flavor enhancement. Kokumi peptides within yeast extracts were isolated through ultrafiltration and gel chromatography, followed by identification using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Two peptides, IQGFK and EDFFVR, were identified and synthesized using solid-phase methods based on molecular docking outcomes. Sensory evaluations and electronic tongue analyses conducted with chicken broth solutions revealed taste thresholds of 0.12 mmol L-1 for IQGFK and 0.16 mmol L-1 for EDFFVR, respectively, and both peptides exhibited kokumi properties. Additionally, through molecular dynamics simulations, the binding mechanisms between these peptides and the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) were explored. The findings indicated stable binding of both peptides to the receptor. IQGFK primarily interacted through electrostatic interactions, with key binding sites including Asp275, Asn102, Pro274, Trp70, Tyr218, and Ser147. EDFFVR mainly engaged via van der Waals energy and polar solvation free energy, with key binding sites being Asp275, Ile416, Pro274, Arg66, Ala298, and Tyr218. This suggests that both peptides can activate the CaSR, thereby inducing kokumi activity. This study provides a theoretical foundation and reference for the screening and identification of kokumi peptides, successfully uncovering two novel kokumi peptides derived from yeast extract.

Comprehensive investigation on non-volatile and volatile flavor compounds in the Morchella sextelata and Morchella importuna by UPLC-MS/MS and GC × GC-TOF-MS. Food Chem X 2023; 20:100961. [PMID: 38144828 PMCID: PMC10740039 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.100961] [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: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Morchella sextelata and Morchella importuna are the main cultivars of morel. However, the key compounds affecting their flavors (taste and odor) are currently unknown. Here, an ultra performance tandem mass spectrometry combined with two-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry method was used to detect and relatively quantify the metabolites in both morel cultivars. A total of 631 non-volatile compounds and 242 volatile compounds were identified. The odor activity value was calculated to assess the contribution of key odor volatile. The results indicated that M. importuna had a sweeter flavor than M. sextelata. The former posed more prominent mushroom flavor than the latter based on the correlation analysis of the metabolites. The flavor differences of the two morel cultivars are highly relevant with the content of lipids, carbohydrates, amino acids and derivatives, alcohols and ketones. This study provides new insights into the theoretical basis for the flavor differences in both morel cultivars.

Abstract
The typical dry-cured ham flavor is rich in umami and brothy perceptions, for which short peptides may contribute. Particularly, γ-glutamyl peptides could be the responsible of these previously reported attributes, as they exert a synergistic interaction with other basic tastes and modify the intensity of salty, sweet, and umami tastes. The content of peptides has been reported to evolve along the processing, but no kokumi γ-glutamyl peptides have been identified in Spanish dry-cured hams yet. In this research, nine γ-glutamyl dipeptides (γ-EA, γ-EC, γ-EE, γ-EF, γ-EL, γ-EM, γ-EV, γ-EW, and γ-EY) and two γ-glutamyl tripeptides (GSH and γ-EVG) have been quantitated at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months of traditional processing of Spanish dry-cured ham by performing a Q Exactive Orbitrap-based tandem mass spectrometry. The results show an increase of γ-EA, γ-EE, γ-EF, γ-EL, γ-EM and γ-EVG, obtaining maximums at 24 months of curing ranging from 0.14 (γ-EVG) to 18.86 (γ-EL) μg/g dry-cured ham. Otherwise, γ-EV, γ-EW and γ-EY accumulated until the 18th month of storage to 15.10, 0.54 and 3.17 μg/g dry-cured ham, respectively; whereas γ-EC and GSH amounts decreased starting from 0.0676 and 4.41 μg/g dry-cured ham, respectively at earlier stages. The concentration dynamics of these compounds may be linked with proteolytic and oxidative reactions during processing. In addition, due to their synergistic effect on kokumi activity, this could constitute insights of the brothy perceptions of dry-cured ham, and these peptides probably contribute to the sensory differences existing in long processed Spanish dry-cured hams.

Abstract
Taste peptides are oligopeptides that enhance both aroma and taste of food, and they are classified into five categories based on their taste characteristics: salty, sour, umami, sweet, bitter, and kokumi peptide. Recently, taste peptides have attracted the attention of several fields of research in food science and commercial applications. However, research on taste receptors of taste peptides and their taste transduction mechanisms are not clearly understood and we present a comprehensive review about these topics here. This review covers the aspects of taste peptides perceived by their receptors in taste cells, the proposed transduction pathway, as well as structural features of taste peptides. Apart from traditional methods, molecular docking, peptidomic analysis, cell and animal models and taste bud biosensors can be used to explore the taste mechanism of taste peptides. Furthermore, synergistic effect, Maillard reaction, structural modifications and changing external environment are employed to improve the taste of taste peptides. Consequently, we discussed the current challenges and future trends in taste peptide research. Based on the summarized developments, taste peptides derived from food proteins potentially appear to be important taste substances. Their applications meet the principles of "safe, nutritious and sustainable" in food development.

Abstract
Salting is a crucial step during the production of dry-cured ham and it is not well known whether it has an impact on the generation of taste-active peptides. The present study focused on the quantitation of kokumi γ-glutamyl peptides in low-salted Spanish dry-cured hams with 12 months of processing. By using mass spectrometry, peptides were quantitated from samples obtained after ethanolic deproteinization-based and non-ethanolic deproteinization-based extraction methods. Peptides γ-EA, γ-EE, and γ-EL registered mean values of 0.31, 2.75, and 11.35 µg/g of dry-cured ham, respectively, with no differences observed between both extraction protocols. However, γ-EF, γ-EM, γ-EV, γ-EW, γ-EY, and γ-EVG presented significantly (p < 0.05) higher concentrations in the ethanolic deproteinized samples showing values of 5.58, 4.13, 13.90, 0.77, 3.71, and 0.11 µg/g of dry-cured ham, respectively. These outcomes reflect the importance of protocols for the extraction of peptides to achieve the most feasible results. In addition, potential precursors for the formation of γ-glutamyl peptides are generated during dry-curing under salt restriction. The kokumi activity of these γ-glutamyl peptides could enhance the sensory attributes countering the taste deficiencies caused by the salt restriction.

Abstract
Glutathione transferases (GSTs) are ubiquitous key enzymes with different activities as transferases or isomerases. As key detoxifying enzymes, GSTs are expressed in the chemosensory organs. They fulfill an essential protective role because the chemosensory organs are located in the main entry paths of exogenous compounds within the body. In addition to this protective function, they modulate the perception process by metabolizing exogenous molecules, including tastants and odorants. Chemosensory detection involves the interaction of chemosensory molecules with receptors. GST contributes to signal termination by metabolizing these molecules. By reducing the concentration of chemosensory molecules before receptor binding, GST modulates receptor activation and, therefore, the perception of these molecules. The balance of chemoperception by GSTs has been shown in insects as well as in mammals, although their chemosensory systems are not evolutionarily connected. This review will provide knowledge supporting the involvement of GSTs in chemoperception, describing their localization in these systems as well as their enzymatic capacity toward odorants, sapid molecules, and pheromones in insects and mammals. Their different roles in chemosensory organs will be discussed in light of the evolutionary advantage of the coupling of the detoxification system and chemosensory system through GSTs.

Abstract
The kokumi sensation of protein hydrolysates could be enhanced by γ-glutamylation through forming a series of γ-glutamyl di- and tri-peptides. In this study, porcine hemoglobin hydrolysate was γ-glutamylated using enzymes from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (Ba) or Bacillus licheniformis (Bl), which are sold as glutaminases but identified as γ-glutamyltransferases (GGTs). To yield more γ-glutamyl peptides, reaction conditions were optimized in terms of GGT source (BaGGT and BlGGT), substrate concentration (10, 20, and 40%), reaction time (3, 6, 12, and 24 h), and glutamine supplementation (20, 40, and 80 mM). Results showed that both the GGTs had the highest transpeptidase activity at similar pH values but different temperatures. In addition, BaGGT had stronger catalytic ability to form γ-glutamyl dipeptides, while BlGGT was more capable to generate γ-Glu-Val-Gly. Adding glutamine was more efficient to obtain more target peptides than adjusting the hydrolysate concentration and reaction time. This study contributes to the valorization of animal side streams.

Abstract
γ-Glutamyl-peptides are frequently endowed with biological activities. In this work, "kokumi peptides" such as γ-glutamyl-methionine (1) and γ-glutamyl-(S)-allyl-cysteine (2), as well as the neuroprotective γ-glutamyl-taurine (3) and the antioxidant ophthalmic acid (4), were synthesized through an enzymatic transpeptidation reaction catalyzed by the γ-glutamyl transferase from Bacillus subtilis (BsGGT) using glutamine as the γ-glutamyl donor. BsGGT was covalently immobilized on glyoxyl-agarose resulting in high protein immobilization yield and activity recovery (>95%). Compounds 1-4 were obtained in moderate yields (19-40%, 5-10 g/L) with a variable purity depending on the presence of the main byproduct (γ-glutamyl-glutamine, 0-16%). To achieve process intensification and better control of side reactions, the synthesis of 2 was moved from batch to continuous flow. The specific productivity was 1.5 times higher than that in batch synthesis (13.7 μmol/min*g), but it was not accompanied by a paralleled improvement of the impurity profile.

Abstract
The chemical substances responsible for the kokumi taste of green tea infusion are still unclear. Here, we isolated the kokumi compound-containing fractions from green tea infusion through ultrafiltration, and the major kokumi compounds were characterized as γ-Glu-Gln and γ-Glu-Cys-Gly (GSH) through ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). The results indicated that peptides and amino acids were essential compounds in the kokumi-enriched fractions for conducting the sense of kokumi. L-theanine had an enhancing effect on the kokumi taste of green tea infusion, which was confirmed in the sensory reconstitution study. Thus, peptides, especially γ-Glu-Gln and GSH, are the major kokumi compounds in green tea infusion, which has the potential of improving the flavor of tea beverages.

[PMID: 35975899 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.16256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2022] [Revised: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
Pleurotus citrinopileatus, a nutritious and palatable edible mushroom, can be used as an appropriate material to prepare high-grade flavoring agents. Based on this, the current study aimed to investigate the feasibility of a productive protease system from Actinomucor elegans to prepare P. citrinopileatus hydrolysate (PCH). The Actinomucor elegans crude protease (AECP) was prepared from the solid-state fermentation product of P. citrinopileatus by A. elegans. AECP and four commercial proteases (alcalase, neutrase, papain, and protamex) were applied to acquire five kinds of PCHs. The physical-chemical properties of PCHs as well as its concentration and composition of nonvolatile compounds were comparatively analyzed. Sensory evaluation and electronic tongue analysis were utilized to evaluate sensory characteristics. AECP was found to be the most effective protease, with the highest hydrolysis degree (35.91%) and protein recovery (81.46%). The result of molecular weight distribution indicated that peptides below 500 Da were the main fraction of AECP hydrolysates, while AECP hydrolysates showed the highest content of monosodium glutamate-like (20.23 ± 0.16 mg/g) and flavor 5'-nucleotide (4.30 ± 0.07 mg/g) peptides. In summary, the AECP hydrolysate had superior sensory profiles compared with other hydrolysates. In addition, AECP hydrolysates exhibited favorable kokumi taste in which peptides below 500 Da showed the highest correlation with kokumi by the results of partial least-squares regression. These results indicated the feasibility of applying PCHs as flavor additives or seasoning in the food industry. AECP might be used as an alternative enzyme choice because of its low cost and high hydrolysis efficiency. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Pleurotus citrinopileatus served as a potential raw material for natural seasonings because of its high protein content and appropriate ratio of umami amino acids to total amino acids. Enzymatic hydrolysis was an efficient approach to improve the flavor of P. citrinopileatus, where the choice of enzyme was one of the most critical factors. The research indicated that P. citrinopileatus hydrolysate prepared by A. elegans crude protease (AECP) exhibited an acceptable flavor, which provided theoretical support for the high-value utilization of P. citrinopileatus as food seasoning. AECP might be applied as an alternative enzyme resource because of its low cost and high hydrolysis efficiency.

Abstract
γ-Glutamyl peptides (γ-GPs) are a group of peptides naturally found in various food sources. The unique γ-bond potentially enables them to resist gastrointestinal digestion and offers high stability in vivo with a longer half-life. In recent years, these peptides have caught researchers' attention due to their ability to impart kokumi taste and elicit various physiological functions via the allosteric activation of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). This review discusses the various food sources of γ-glutamyl peptides, different synthesis modes, allosteric activation of CaSR for taste perception, and associated multiple biological functions they can exhibit, with a special emphasis on their role in modulating chronic inflammation concerning cardiovascular health.

Abstract
Previous studies supposed that Amadori rearrangement products (ARPs) of peptides might have better umami-enhancing abilities. To confirm this, five ARPs (EP-ARP, AH-ARP, EE-ARP, β-AH-ARP, RFPHADF-ARP) were synthesized using a food-grade preparation method, and their chemical structures were clearly demonstrated by mass spectrometry and 1D/2D NMR. Sensory experiments showed that ARPs had better umami-enhancing abilities than the corresponding peptides in this research, though their enhancing performance varied. ARPs showed a synergistic effect with multiple umami substances (MSG and GMP), while their corresponding peptides did not. RFPHADF-ARP had good umami-enhancing capacity, despite that RFPHADF was a bitter peptide without any umami/umami-enhancing property. RFPHADF-ARP could bind to the T1R3, which is beneficial to the stability of the active conformation of the umami receptor. The introduction of glucose via the Maillard reaction increased the binding force of RFPHADF with the umami receptor by influencing the electron density distribution and offering more binding groups (hydroxide group).

Abstract
N-l-Lactoyl phenylalanine (N-l-lactoyl-Phe) has been identified as a taste-active contributor in many fermented foods. However, its preparation, taste property, and content in foodstuffs are little known to date. In the current study, two preparation technologies of N-l-lactoyl-Phe including heating and enzymatic methods were investigated. Other investigations include its taste property and quantification in several fermented foods. The results indicated that the heating preparation and enzymatic preparation only produced N-l-lactoyl-Phe instead of N-d-lactoyl-Phe in the presence of l-lactate/d-lactate and l-phenylalanine (Phe). A high yield (58.0% ± 0.7%) of N-l-lactoyl-Phe was achieved under the following conditions: Phe, lactate, CaO, and water at molar ratios of 1:8:0.3:9 kept at 100 °C for 3 h. With nine enzymes, a maximum yield of 21.2% ± 0.3% was achieved in the aqueous solution under mild operating conditions: 0.18 M Phe, 0.90 M lactate, 5 g/L Debitrase HYW 20, pH 8, and 55 °C for 24 h. The sensory evaluation revealed that N-l-lactoyl-Phe in water enhanced the salty and umami intensity. It also enhanced the thickness, mouthfulness, and continuity of salt solution, model broth, and chicken broth, revealing that N-l-lactoyl-Phe was a kokumi-active compound. The kokumi thresholds of N-l-lactoyl-Phe in these solutions were 50, 50, and 25 mg/L, respectively. N-l-Lactoyl-Phe was quantified in traditional Chinese fermented foods as 30.12 ± 0.28 mg/kg in preserved pickles, 14.11 ± 0.14 mg/kg in soybean paste, 4.87 ± 0.16 mg/kg in fermented bean, 0.71 ± 0.11 mg/kg in rice vinegar, and 20.34 ± 0.18 mg/kg in soy sauce. These results revealed the potential of N-l-lactoyl-Phe as a taste enhancer, presenting a new opportunity for the food industry.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides are specific peptide which usually contains 2-20 amino acid residues and actively exerts various functions and biological activities and ultimately affect health. Programmed cell deaths are some styles of cell death discovered in recent years, which is the key to tissue development and balance, eliminating excess, damaged or aging cells. More importantly, programmed cell death is a potential way to treat inflammatory diseases and cancer. In this review, through screening references from 2015 to present, we introduce the effect of bioactive peptides derived from food proteins on inflammatory diseases or cancer through regulating programmed cell deaths, including apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and necroptosis. And this review also introduces the targets of these bioactive peptides to regulate programmed cell death. The purpose of this review is to help to expand the prospective applications of bioactive peptides in the field of inflammatory disease and cancer to provide some guidance.

Abstract
Food safety is veryimportant in our daily life. In food processing or disinfection, microorganisms are commonly exposed to oxidative stress perturbations. However, microorganisms can adapt and respond to physicochemical interventions, leading to difficulty and complexity for food safety assurance. Therefore, understanding the response mechanisms of microbes and providing an overview of the responses under oxidative stress conditions are beneficial for ensuring food safety for the industry. The current review takes the metabolomics approach to reveal small metabolite signatures and key pathway alterations during oxidative stress at the molecular and technical levels. These alterations are involved in primary oxidative stress responses due to inactivation treatments such as using hypochlorite (HOCl), hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ), electrolyzed water (EW), irradiation, pulsed light (PL), electron beam (EB), and secondary oxidative stress responses due to exposures to excessive conditions such as heat, pressure, acid, and alkaline. Details on the putative origin of exogenous or endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) are discussed, with particular attention paid to their effects on lipid, amino acid, nucleotide, and carbohydrate metabolism. In addition, mechanisms on counteracting oxidative stresses, stabilization of cell osmolality as well as energy provision for microbes to survive are also discussed.

Abstract
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites that are known to be toxic to humans and animals. On the other hand, some mycotoxins and their analogues possess antioxidant as well as antitumor properties, which could be relevant in the fields of pharmaceutical analysis and food research. Omics techniques are a group of analytical tools applied in the biological sciences in order to study genes (genomics), mRNA (transcriptomics), proteins (proteomics), and metabolites (metabolomics). Omics have become a vital tool in the field of mycotoxins, especially contributing to the identification of biomarkers with potential use for the detection of mycotoxigenic species and the gathering of information about the biosynthetic pathways of mycotoxins in different environments. This approach has provided tools for the development of prevention strategies and control measures for different mycotoxins. Additionally, research has revealed important information about the impact of global warming and climate change on the prevalence of mycotoxin issues in society. In the context of foodomics, the aim is to apply omics techniques in order to ensure food safety. The objective of the present review is to determine the state of the art regarding the development of analytical techniques based on omics in the identification of biosynthetic pathways related to mycotoxin synthesis.

Abstract
The consumers' demand for clean-label food products, lead to the replacement of conventional additives and redesign of the production methods in order to adopt green processes. Many researchers have focused on the identification and isolation of naturally occurring taste and flavor enhancers. The term "taste enhancer" and "flavor enhancer" refer to umami and kokumi components, respectively, and their utilization requires the study of their mechanism of action and the identification of their natural sources. Plants, fungi and dairy products can provide high amounts of naturally occurring taste and flavor enhancers. Thermal or enzymatic treatments of the raw materials intensify taste and flavor properties. Their utilization as taste and flavor enhancers relies on their identification and isolation. All the above-mentioned issues are discussed in this review, from the scope of listing the newest trends and up-to-date technological developments. Additionally, the appropriate sensory analysis protocols of the naturally occurring taste-active components are presented. Moreover, future trends in using such ingredients by the food industry can motivate researchers to study new means for clean-label food production and provide further knowledge to the food industry, in order to respond to consumers' demands.
