Dent T, Campanella O, Maleky F. Enzymatic hydrolysis of soy and chickpea protein with Alcalase and Flavourzyme and formation of hydrogen bond mediated insoluble aggregates. Curr Res Food Sci 2023; 6:100487. [PMID: 37065430 PMCID: PMC10102227 DOI: 10.1016/j.crfs.2023.100487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 03/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Food applications involving plant proteins require modification of their functionality to mimic the unique properties of animal proteins. Enzymatic hydrolysis is commonly used to alter the functionality of plant proteins, particularly to improve their solubility near the isoelectric point. Current methodological approaches mostly indicate improved solubility upon hydrolysis. However, published methods include the removal of insoluble material before analysis, and calculations are based on only the solubilized material as a percentage of the filtered protein. This approach artificially increases solubility estimation and gives an incorrect assessment of the efficacy of hydrolysis. By using the total amount of protein, this study aims to determine the effect of two microbial proteases, Flavourzyme and Alcalase, on the solubility and structural and thermal properties of soy and chickpea proteins. Protein isolates were first extracted from soy and chickpea flour and hydrolyzed from 0 to 3 h. Then, their degree of hydrolysis and solubility at a range of pHs were determined using the o-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) and Lowry methods, respectively. Proteins' electrophoretic mobility, protein-protein interactions, thermal properties, and protein secondary structures were also determined. Solubility decreased over time though the solubility of the hydrolysate improved near the isoelectric point. Soy Flavourzyme hydrolysates remained the most soluble and chickpea Flavourzyme hydrolysates showed the least solubility. Thermal data suggested that Alcalase reduced the protein denaturation temperature, leading to a loss of solubility upon thermal enzyme inactivation. The loss of solubility of hydrolysates was strongly associated with hydrogen bonding, which may result from the formation of polar peptide termini. These results challenge commonly accepted beliefs that hydrolysis inevitably improves solubility of plant proteins. Instead, it is shown that hydrolysis causes structural changes that result in aggregation, thus potentially limiting the application of enzymatic hydrolysis without the addition of further processing methods.

Abstract
Plant-based protein ingredients are an emerging solution to the environmental and health issues associated with animal-based proteins. Pulses have become a promising source of these plant-based ingredients. In order to produce functional proteins from pulse grains, extensive processing must be conducted to extract their proteins. These processing steps have consequential effects on the composition and structure of the resulting proteins which may modify their functional properties. This study reviews the most prominent options for each unit operation of pulse protein processing such as extraction, isolation, and drying. It also emphasizes the benefits and drawbacks of such methods and their effects on the pulse protein functionality. Furthermore, enzymatic hydrolysis is discussed as an optional processing step that is thought to counteract loss of functionality associated with pulse protein isolation. However, review of enzymatic hydrolysis literature reveals methodological issues in which insoluble and nonfunctional fractions of pulse protein hydrolysates are removed before analysis. This literature may draw into question the validity of the conventional wisdom that enzymatic hydrolysis is always beneficial to protein functionality.

Abstract
Abstract
The limited enzymatic hydrolysis gelation method was investigated using peanut protein isolate (PPI) without any coagulators. A peanut protein gel could be formed by enzyme treatment with Alcalase at low temperature (50–70 °C). The influence of enzymatic hydrolysis on the rheological and physicochemical properties was investigated. Structural changes in the PPI were characterized by analyzing the subunits, chemical forces, surface hydrophobicity, fluorescence spectra, and circular dichroism (CD) spectra. The results revealed that enzymatic hydrolysis significantly affected the conarachin II protein of PPI, and had little influence on conarachin I and the basic subunits of arachin. Hydrophobic interaction was the main chemical force active in the peanut protein gel. An increase in the surface hydrophobicity coupled with red-shifts of the fluorescence spectra indicated that inner hydrophobic regions were exposed after hydrolysis, resulting in gel formation via hydrophobic interactions. The CD spectra showed that significant changes occurred in the secondary structure of PPI, where the ordered PPI structure formed a more open structure after enzymatic hydrolysis.

Abstract
The effect of ultrasound on the conformational and physicochemical properties of soy protein isolate hydrolysates (SPHs) was investigated. SPHs were prepared at hydrolysis times of 20 min, 60 min, and 180 min, then treated with ultrasound for 10 min, 20 min, and 30 min at a frequency of 20 kHz and output powers of 150 W and 450 W. The structural properties and antioxidant capacities of the aqueous layer of SPHs (ASPHs) after sonication were evaluated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), intrinsic fluorescence, DPPH radical scavenging activity assays, and microscopy observations. Results obtained showed that ultrasound treatment significantly disrupted the peptide aggregates formed during protein hydrolysis. The protein solubility was significantly increased after sonication (by up to 18.33%), as did the percentage of proteins with MW < 1 kDa in ASPHs. The antioxidant capacity of ASPHs also increased, as measured by DPPH assay. FTIR analysis of ASPHs indicated that the protein secondary structures were different, with an increase in β-sheet and a decrease in α-helix and β-turn. Furthermore, the changes in fluorescence spectra of ASPHs showed the transition of protein tertiary structure with a greater exposure of Trp residues in the side chains. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM) observations of the morphological structure of ASPHs further confirmed the significant effect of sonication on disrupting peptide aggregates. In conclusion, ultrasound can be used as an efficient treatment to promote the solubility of protein hydrolysates.

Abstract
Upon enzymatic hydrolysis, soy protein isolates showed a strong tendency to aggregate, presenting a significant loss of valuable proteins. This study mainly focused on the large insoluble aggregates formed during proteolysis, and the influence of heating was further explored for a better understanding of the mechanism involved. The results from SDS-PAGE and amino acid analysis clearly showed that the insoluble aggregates formed upon hydrolysis were aggregated peptides, mainly attributed to the hydrophobic interactions between peptides with hydrophobic amino acids (Val, Ala, Leu, Ile, Tyr, Phe, and Pro) and sulfur-containing (Met and Cys) residues. Heating of the hydrolysates further enhanced the peptide-protein interactions through hydrophobic forces and disulfide bonds, accelerating the aggregation, where fractions from the basic subunits of glycinin were particularly involved. Furthermore, taking into consideration the fact that aggregates had a high proportion of essential amino acids, the in vitro digestion properties of the aggregates were also investigated. Interestingly, the relatively pepsin-resistant aggregates showed a high degradability toward pancreatin, releasing low molecular weight peptides possessing a higher proportion of antioxidative amino acids, which therefore had a better antioxidant activity. These results indicated a potential use of the insoluble peptide aggregates as protein supplements or active delivery systems for human consumption.

Abstract
Enzymatic hydrolysis of milk proteins has been a subject of numerous research studies and patents. The driving force for these studies has been the increased utilization of milk proteins. The industrial uses of milk proteins are based on their unique composition, functionality, and nutritive values. The diversity of milk protein fraction, the large number of proteinases, and controlled hydrolysis conditions used resulted in the preparation of hydrolysates suitable for several purposes. Enzymatic hydrolysis of milk proteins modifies the techno-functional and biofunctional properties of hydrolysates depending on the enzyme(s) and hydrolysis conditions used. Milk protein hydrolysates (MPH) are used commonly in normal and clinical nutrition and as a functional food ingredient. In the present review, emphasis has been made to highlight methods applied for the preparation of MPH, and the functional properties and utilization of the obtained hydrolysates.

Abstract
This review focuses on the enhanced functional characteristics of enzymatic hydrolysates of whey proteins (WPHs) in food applications compared to intact whey proteins (WPs). WPs are applied in foods as whey protein concentrates (WPCs), whey protein isolates (WPIs), and WPHs. WPs are byproducts of cheese production, used in a wide range of food applications due to their nutritional validity, functional activities, and cost effectiveness. Enzymatic hydrolysis yields improved functional and nutritional benefits in contrast to heat denaturation or native applications. WPHs improve solubility over a wide range of pH, create viscosity through water binding, and promote cohesion, adhesion, and elasticity. WPHs form stronger but more flexible edible films than WPC or WPI. WPHs enhance emulsification, bind fat, and facilitate whipping, compared to intact WPs. Extensive hydrolyzed WPHs with proper heat applications are the best emulsifiers and addition of polysaccharides improves the emulsification ability of WPHs. Also, WPHs improve the sensorial properties like color, flavor, and texture but impart a bitter taste in case where extensive hydrolysis (degree of hydrolysis greater than 8%). It is important to consider the type of enzyme, hydrolysis conditions, and WPHs production method based on the nature of food application.

Abstract
Enzymatic proteolysis may be employed to release bioactive peptides, which have been investigated for potential benefits from both technological and human health perspectives. In this study, sheep cheese whey (SCW) was hydrolyzed with a protease preparation from Bacillus sp. P7, and the hydrolysates were evaluated for antioxidant and angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activities. Soluble protein and free amino acids increased during hydrolysis of SCW for up to 4h. Antioxidant activity of hydrolysates, evaluated by the 2,2'azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulfonic acid radical scavenging method, increased 3.2-fold from 0 h (15.9%) to 6h of hydrolysis (51.3%). Maximum Fe(2+) chelation was reached in 3h hydrolysates, and the reducing power peaked at 1h of hydrolysis, representing 6.2 and 2.1-fold increase, respectively, when compared to that of non-hydrolyzed SCW. ACE inhibition by SCW (12%) was improved through hydrolysis, reaching maximal values (55% inhibition) in 4h, although 42% inhibition was already observed after 1h hydrolysis. The peptide LAFNPTQLEGQCHV, derived from β-lactoglobulin, was identified from 4-h hydrolysates. Such a biotechnological approach might be an interesting strategy for SCW processing, potentially contributing to the management and valorization of this abundant dairy byproduct.

Abstract
Two peptides, [f135-158] and [f135-162]-SH, were used to study the binding of the peptides to native β-lactolobulin, as well as the subsequent effects on aggregation and gelation of β-lactoglobulin. The binding of the peptide [f135-158] to β-lactoglobulin at room temperature was confirmed by SELDI-TOF-MS. It was further illustrated by increased turbidity of mixed solutions of peptide and protein (at pH 7), indicating association of proteins and peptides in larger complexes. At pH below the isoelectric point of the protein, the presence of peptides did not lead to an increased turbidity, showing the absence of complexation. The protein-peptide complexes formed at pH 7 were found to dissociate directly upon heating. After prolonged heating, extensive aggregation was observed, whereas no aggregation was seen for the pure protein or pure peptide solutions. The presence of the free sulfhydryl group in [f135-162]-SH resulted in a 10 times increase in the amount of aggregation of β-lactoglobulin upon heating, illustrating the additional effect of the free sulfhydryl group. Subsequent studies on the gel strength of heat-induced gels also showed a clear difference between these two peptides. The replacement of additional β-lactoglobulin by [f135-158] resulted in a decrease in gel strength, whereas replacement by peptide [f135-162]-SH increased gel strength.

Abstract
The roles of sulfhydryl/disulfide interactions and acid/pepsin hydrolysis on β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) thermal aggregation at acidic pH 3.35 and 2 were studied using rheology, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Western blotting. Pepsin promoted additional hydrolysis compared to the acid-hydrolyzed control sample based on a 12% increase in free amino groups. Hydrolysis with pepsin also resulted in an increase in the apparent viscosity by 2 logs upon heating 8% β-lg solutions at pH 3.35. Seemingly, hydrolysis promoted thermal aggregation of β-lg, correlating well with viscosity increases. Large microgels were observed in heated pepsin hydrolysates using TEM, supporting the increased viscosities of these dispersions. During thermal aggregation (85 °C, 3 h) of β-lg at pH 3.35, beyond the existence of limited disulfide interactions, acid hydrolysis and noncovalent interactions more likely play a crucial role in defining the functionality of acidified powdered modified whey ingredients.

Abstract
Protease activity during storage is thought to be an important contributor to decreased shelf life of fresh seafood. To examine this, three batches of red swamp crayfish ( Procambarus clarkii) tails, placed on trays, were packed with a polyvinyl chloride film (aerobic packaging or AP), under vacuum (vacuum packaging or VP), or under a modified atmosphere (MAP: 80% CO 2/10% O 2/10% N 2), and proteolytic activity was measured on days 0, 1, 3, 6, and 10 during storage at 2 degrees C. The crude extract from the crayfish digestive system (gut) did not have an apparent role in muscle proteolysis as negligible proteolytic activity was detected. However, the loss of calpastatin (the endogenous calpain inhibitor) was identified in MAP-stored muscle samples on day 10, suggestive of high m-calpain activity. Tail samples stored in AP showed no appreciable proteolysis, but those stored in MAP and VP showed significant decreases in the levels of 53, 66, 71, and 110 kDa polypeptides during storage. The observed proteolytic activity and myofibrillar protein degradation did not correspond to muscle textural properties as the MAP samples had an increased toughness ( P < 0.05) after storage for 10 days. These findings suggest that other physicochemical mechanisms are involved in postmortem alteration in the crayfish muscle structure under the packaging systems investigated.

Abstract
This paper provides a brief overview of the effects of protein hydrolysis on aggregation and gel forming properties of protein systems. Among the food globular proteins, whey proteins and soy proteins are the most extensively studied for their ability to form different textures upon proteolysis. Recent studies were focused on identifying aggregating peptides and on mechanisms of aggregation and gelation.

Abstract
The objective of this work was to identify the dominant aggregating peptides from a whey protein hydrolysate (degree of hydrolysis of 6.8%) obtained with Bacillus licheniformis protease. The aggregating peptides were fractionated with preparative reversed-phase chromatography and identified with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results showed that the dominant aggregating peptide, at pH 7.0, was beta-lg AB [f1-45]. In addition, the peptides beta-lg AB [f90-108]-S-S-alpha-la [f50-113], alpha-la [f12-49]-S-S-alpha-la [f50-113], beta-lg AB [f90-108]-S-S-beta-lg AB [f90-108], beta-lg A [f90-157], and beta-lg AB [f135-157/158] were also identified as main aggregating peptides. The results further showed that aggregation, via hydrophobic interactions, prevented further digestion (at pH 8.0), thereby explaining the large size of the aggregating peptides. It is hypothesized that B. licheniformis protease breaks down hydrophilic segments in the substrate and, therefore, preserves hydrophobic segments that aggregate once exposed to the solvent.

Abstract
Hydrolysis of the whey protein alpha-lactalbumin with a specific serine protease has been shown to result in regular nanotubes of approximately 20 nm in outer diameter and reaching several mum in length. Tubular assembly depends on the concentration of protein as this determines how far the hydrolysis proceeds. A concentration of 30 g L(-1) is a prerequisite for tubular formation, as is a minimum concentration of calcium. At lower protein concentrations calcium-independent formation of linear fibrils (approximately 5 nm in diameter) is favoured. Possible applications of alpha-lactalbumin nanotubes include use as a viscosifier and gelling agent and also pharmaceutical utilization (such as targeted drug release) and use in nanotechnology can be envisioned.

Abstract
The effects of several conditions on the amounts and compositions of aggregates formed in mixtures of whey protein hydrolysate, made with Bacillus licheniformis protease, and whey protein isolate were investigated using response surface methodology. Next, the peptides present in the aggregates were separated from the intact protein and identified with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Increasing both temperature and ionic strength increased the amounts of both intact protein and peptides in the aggregates. There was an optimal amount of added intact WPI that could aggregate with peptides, yielding a maximal amount of aggregated material in which the peptide/protein molar ratio was around 6. Under all conditions applied, the same peptides were observed in the protein-peptide aggregates formed. The dominant peptides were beta-lg AB [f1-45], beta-lg AB [f90-108], and alpha-la [f50-113]. It was hypothesized that peptides could form a kind of glue network that can include beta-lactoglobulin via hydrophobic interactions at the hydrophobic binding sites at the surface of the protein.

Abstract
Acid-induced cold gelation of soy protein hydrolysates was studied. Hydrolysates with degrees of hydrolysis (DH) of up to 10% were prepared by using subtilisin Carlsberg. The enzyme was inhibited to uncouple the hydrolysis from the subsequent gelation; the latter was induced by the addition of glucono-delta-lactone. Visual observations, confocal scanning laser microscopy images, and the elasticity modulus showed that hydrolysates gelled at higher pH values with increasing DH. The nonhydrolyzed soy protein isolate gelled at pH approximately 6.0, whereas a DH = 5% hydrolysate gelled at pH approximately 7.6. Gels made from hydrolysates had a softer texture when manually disrupted and showed syneresis below a pH of 5-5.5. Monitoring of gelation by measuring the development of the storage modulus could be replaced by measuring the pH onset of aggregate formation (pH(Aggr-onset)) using turbidity measurements. The rate of acidification was observed to also influence this pH(Aggr-onset). Changes in ionic strength (0.03, 0.2, and 0.5 M) had only a minor influence on the pH(Aggr-onset), indicating that the aggregation is not simply a balance between repulsive electrostatic and attractive hydrophobic interactions, but is much more complex.

Abstract
Hydrolysis of whey protein concentrate (WPC) with Alcalase 2.4 L, a Bacillus licheniformis proteinase preparation, induces gelation. The aggregation behavior of WPC hydrolysates generated with Alcalase and Prolyve 1000, a Bacillus licheniformis proteinase that did not induce gelation, were studied by turbidity and particle size analysis. With the use of synthetic peptide substrates, it was shown that Alcalase contains a glutamyl endopeptidase (GE) activity not present in Prolyve. Comparison of the aggregation behavior of WPC hydrolysates generated with Alcalase, Prolyve, and combinations of Prolyve with a GE activity isolated from Alcalase showed that GE was responsible for the observed enzyme-induced peptide aggregation in Alcalase hydrolysates. Hydrolysates generated with Prolyve, having a degree of hydrolysis (DH) of 11.8% and 10.4% of peptide material greater than 10 kDa, could be induced to aggregate by the addition of GE. These results emphasize the contribution of enzyme specificity to the physicochemical and functional characteristics of proteinase hydrolysates of WPC.

Abstract
This review has attempted to study the literature pertaining to peptides derived from milk proteins. Hydrolysis of milk proteins to generate peptides has been practiced for a long time and it was recognized early on in this process that the taste of hydrolyzates might hinder use of these products in food formulations. Modification of protein is necessary to form a more acceptable or utilizable product, to form a product that is less susceptible to deteriorative reactions and to form a product that is of higher nutritionall quality. Modifications may be achieved by a number of chemical and enzymatic means. This review has considered only enzymatic modification of dairy proteins. Modified proteins contain peptides and some of these peptides have been purified and their functionalities have been compared with unmodified proteins. This paper has examined the literature pertaining to improvement in functionality of enzyme-modified proteins. Improvements in solubility, emulsification, foaming and gelation were examined. There is limited information available on the sequence of the peptides necessary to improve the functional characteristics of proteins. Knowing the sequences of desirable functional peptides can lead to genetic alteration of proteins to improve functionality. Addition of synthetic peptides to intact proteins may be another way in which the functionality of proteins can be augmented. Some of the peptides in milk proteins are capable of affecting biological functions of an organism. These effects can be antimicrobial and probiotic, i.e., prevent the growth and proliferation of undesirable and pathogenic organisms, or they may promote the growth of desirable bacteria in the digestive tract of humans and animals. Peptides derived from milk protein have been shown to exert digestive and metabolic effects as well. They may also influence the immune system. These biological effects may play an important role in the development of medical foods that treat or mitigate the effects of diseases. Proteins are allergens and therefore it is possible that products derived from modification of proteins may also be allergens. The known literature about the allergenicity of peptides derived from milk proteins has been examined in this article. Last, but not the least, the taste attributes of peptides is also considered. Bitterness of hydrolyzates is a common occurrence and the origins of these bitter peptides and possible ways of mitigating this sensory defect has been discussed. Many of the peptides that enhance functionality and exert biological activity are likely to be bitter. Therefore, the bitter taste of hydrolysis products has to be dealt with in boosting the functional or nutraceutical aspects of foods containing these peptides. Analytical techniques for sequencing peptides have become more accessible and purification of peptides is commercially feasible. Computer based modeling techniques have aided the prediction of structures in these peptides. These advances, coupled with the advances in biotechnology, promise to revolutionize the future of nutraceutical and functional foods.

Abstract
Extensive hydrolysis of whey protein isolate by Alcalase was shown to induce gelation mainly via hydrophobic interactions. The aim of this work was to characterize the peptides released in order to better understand this phenomenon. The apparent molecular mass distribution indicated that aggregates were formed by small molecular mass peptides (<2000 Da). One hundred and thirty peptides with various lengths were identified by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Alcalase was observed to have a high specificity for aromatic (Phe, Trp, and Tyr), acidic (Glu), sulfur-containing (Met), aliphatic (Leu and Ala), hydroxyl (Ser), and basic (Lys) residues. Most peptides had an average hydrophobicity of 1-1.5 kcal/residue and a net charge of 0 at the pH at which gelation occurred (6.0). Therefore, an intermolecular attractive force such as hydrophobic interaction suggests the formation of aggregates that further leads to the formation of a gel.

Abstract
Extensive hydrolysis of whey protein isolate by Alcalase 2.4L produces a gel. The objectives of this study were to compare enzyme-induced gelation with the plastein reaction by determining the types of interactions involved in gelation. The average chain length of the peptides did not increase during hydrolysis and reached a plateau after 30 min to be approximately 4 residues, suggesting that the gel was formed by small molecular weight peptides held together by non-covalent interactions. The enzyme-induced gel network was stable over a wide range of pH and ionic strength and, therefore, showed some similarities with the plastein reaction. Disulfide bonds were not involved in the gel network. The gelation seems to be caused by physical aggregation, mainly via hydrophobic interactions with hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions playing a minor role.

Abstract
With the purpose of analyzing the size and composition of enzyme-unextractable proteins in differently heat-treated soybean meals, a selection of extractants was screened for their ability to extract these proteins from enzyme-unextractable residues. The largest effects were obtained with urea, urea plus beta-mercaptoethanol, and dilute alkali; the latter extracted up to 87% of the enzyme-unextractable protein. Gel permeation chromatography indicated that a large proportion of the extracted material was of high molecular weight. However, the combined results from gel electrophoresis, LC-MS, and MALDI-ToF MS showed that the extracted protein material was composed of aggregated peptides. The largest aggregates were observed in the enzymatic residues originating from meals heat-treated at high humidity. Extracted aggregates were fully degraded upon subsequent proteolytic treatment.

Abstract
Solutions of tryptic hydrolysate of bovine beta-lactoglobulin were fractionated by liquid-phase IEF in a preparative Rotofor cell at constant power for 2 h without ampholytes in order to identify interactions between peptides. The 20 peptide fractions collected were analyzed by capillary electrophoresis and SDS-PAGE under native, denaturing, and reducing conditions. The hydrolysate was shown to be composed mainly of acidic peptides (pI 2-5, 62%) of molecular mass below 6 kDa, and numerous disulfide bonds were detected. Purified peptides (beta-LG 15-20, 71-75, 76-82, and 84-91) were also focused individually and in mixtures and matched to components of the IEF fractions obtained from the tryptic hydrolysate of beta-LG. The separation of acidic (beta-LG 84-91) and basic (beta-LG 76-82) peptides was achieved by IEF, whereas uncharged peptides (beta-LG 15-20 and 71-75) were poorly separated due to their low electrophoretic mobility. Because no peptide-peptide interaction could be identified by IEF fractionation, it is suggested that electrical fields may decrease electrostatic interactions between charged peptides.

Abstract
The emulsifying ability, heat stability, and coalescence stability of oil-in-water emulsions prepared with whey protein of varied degrees of hydrolysis (DH), and at varied protein contents, was studied. Whey protein hydrolysates (WPH) with a DH of 4% and 10% had poorer emulsifying ability than non-hydrolyzed whey protein concentrate (WPC), but were more heat stable. Increasing DH between 10 and 27% improved emulsifying ability and further improved the heat stability of the emulsion droplets. Increasing DH from 27 to 35% led to a big decrease in both emulsifying ability and heat stability. The quiescent coalescence stability of WPH emulsions was relatively good up to a DH of 27%. Above DH 27% emulsions become highly unstable. It appears that two mechanisms of instability are at work here. At low DH heat-induced denaturation and aggregation occur. In the DH range of 4-20% heat stability increases as protein globular structure is disrupted. At a DH greater than 27% we see a change from a hydrolysis-induced increase in heat-stability to coalescence instability, with a resultant large increase in emulsion breakdown during heating.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to identify the peptides responsible for aggregate formation during hydrolysis of beta-lactoglobulin by BLP at neutral pH. Hydrolysates taken at various stages of aggregate formation were separated into a precipitate and a soluble phase and each was analyzed by CE and mass spectrometry. The aggregates consisted of six to seven major peptides of which four were tentatively identified. The peptides were positively charged at neutral pH and had a high charge-to-mass ratio at low pH. The fragment f135-158 seemed to be the initiator of aggregation, since it was present at high concentration in the aggregates at all stages, and the concentration of this peptide remained low in the supernatant. F135-158 contains several basic and acid amino acids alternating with hydrophobic amino acids, which is in accordance with formation of noncovalently linked aggregates, as previously shown.
