J Biosci Bioeng 2024; 137:94-100. [PMID: 38092600 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiosc.2023.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) has become an important target in the prevention and treatment of diabetes. Although many DPP-IV inhibitory peptides have been identified by a general approach involving the repeated fractionation of food protein hydrolysates, the obtained results have been dependent on the content of each peptide and fractionation conditions. In the present study, a peptide array that provides comprehensive assays of peptide sequences was used to identify novel DPP-IV inhibitory peptides derived from bovine milk proteins; these peptides were then compared with those identified using the general approach. While the general approach identified only known peptides that were abundant in the hydrolysate, the peptide array-based approach identified 10 novel DPP-IV inhibitory peptides, all of which had proline at the second residue from the N-terminus. The proper or combined use of these two approaches, which have different advantages, will enable the efficient development of novel bioactive foods and drugs.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides may exert beneficial activities in living organisms such as the regulation of glucose metabolism through the inhibition of alpha amylases. Algae and cyanobacteria are gaining a growing interest for their health-promoting properties, and possible effects on glucose metabolism have been described, although the underlying mechanisms need clarification. This study proposes a computer-driven workflow for a proteome-wide mining of alpha amylase inhibitory peptides from the proteome of Chlorella vulgaris, Auxenochlorella protothecoides and Aphanizomenon flos-aquae. Overall, this work presents an innovative and versatile approach to support the identification of bioactive peptides in annotated proteomes. The study: (i) highlighted the presence of alpha amylase inhibitory peptides within the proteomes under investigation (including ELS, which is among the most potent inhibitory tripeptides identified so far); (ii) mechanistically investigated the possible mechanisms of action; and (iii) prioritized further dedicated investigation on the proteome of C. vulgaris and A. flos-aquae, and on CSSL and PGG sequences.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle atrophy is characterized by decreases in protein content, myofiber diameter, and contractile force generation. As muscle atrophy worsens the quality of life, the development of anti-atrophic substances is desirable. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate a screening process for anti-atrophic peptides using photo-cleavable peptide array technology and human contractile atrophic muscle models. We developed a 96-well system, and established a screening process with less variability. Dexamethasone-induced human atrophic tissue was constructed on the system. Eight peptides were selected from the literature and used for the screening of peptides for preventing the decrease of the contractile forces of tissues. The peptide QIGFIW, which showed preventive activity, was selected as the seed sequence. As a result of amino acid substitution, we obtained QIGFIQ as a peptide with higher anti-atrophic activity. These results indicate that the combinatorial use of the photo-cleavable peptide array technology and 96-well screening system could comprise a powerful approach to obtaining anti-atrophic peptides, and suggest that the 96-well screening system and atrophic model represent a practical and powerful tool for the development of drugs/functional food ingredients.

Abstract
We established a method for synthesizing a free cyclic peptide library via peptide array synthesis to demonstrate the sequence activity of cyclic peptides. Variants of the cyclic nonapeptide oxytocin (OXT) were synthesized via residue substitution. Natural amino acids (AAs) were classified into eight groups based on their physical properties and the size of their side chains, and a representative AA from each group was selected for residue substitution. All OXT variants were systematically evaluated for agonist/antagonist activity. Consequently, no improvement in agonist activity was observed, although substitution of the P4 and P8 residues resulted in decreased activity due to AA substitution. A few OXT variants exhibited antagonistic activity. In particular, the variants with P2 Leu residue substitution (Y2L) and Phe substitutions at residues 4 (Q4F), 5 (N5F), and 7 (P7F) showed high antagonistic activity. Variant Y2W was found to have the highest inhibitory effect, with a dissociation constant of 44 nM, which was comparable to that of the commercial antagonist atosiban (21 nM). Therefore, a free cyclic peptide library constructed via substitution with a natural AA residue was confirmed to be a powerful tool for bioactive peptide screening.

Abstract
Food processing technology such as protein hydrolysis using proteases has been receiving a lot of attention, and it is important to accurately understand the cleavage specificity of each protease for selecting a protease suited to aims. Although numerous methods have been reported to reveal the substrate specificity of proteases, there is no method to evaluate simply, quickly, reasonably, and accurately. This study set out to devise Pep-MS assay, a novel assay system that can be used to comprehensively clarify positions at which proteases cleave, by combining a mass spectrometer and a photo-cleavable peptide array. First, we evaluated peptide array corresponding to the primary sequences of αS1-casein, αS2-casein and β-casein with trypsin to verify the accuracy of the Pep-MS assay. The evaluation of cleavage positions by the trypsin protease reagent using the Pep-MS assay resulted in a matching rate of about 96.8% to rational cleavage positions. Next, we confirmed the cleavage positions in αS2-casein or β-lactoglobulin by an industrial bacterial protease from Bacillus subtilis at some protease reaction temperatures or reaction times. The Pep-MS assay clarified the differences in the cleavage patterns due to the reaction temperature, and the change in the cleavage strength with the reaction time. Pep-MS assay is a promising method for evaluating the substrate specificity of proteases, which will be useful to find effective production conditions for functional peptide from foods and effective hydrolysis conditions for decreasing allergen of food proteins.

Abstract
Functional peptides, peptides that have biological activities, have attracted attention as active ingredients of functional foods and health foods. In particular, for food applications, because orally ingested peptides are degraded by digestive enzymes in the stomach, novel oral administration methods that can prevent peptide degradation and successfully deliver them intestinally are desired. In the present study, we focused on porous silica gel, which has many useful characteristics, such as large surface area, pH responsive functional groups, size controllable pores, and approval as food additives. We investigated the possibility of using porous silica gel as a peptide degradation protective microcarrier. As a result, we found that heat treatment of the silica gel at 600 °C for 2 h remarkably enhanced the adsorbed amount of many peptides under acidic conditions, and negatively charged and highly hydrophobic peptides had suitable characteristics for oral intestinal delivery with silica gel. Finally, we demonstrated the degree of protection from pepsin degradation and found that the protection of DFELEDD peptide was 57.1 ± 3.9% when DFELEDD was mixed with the heat-treated silica gel. These results indicated that the heat-treated silica gel is promising for efficient oral intestinal delivery of hydrophobic negatively charged peptides.

Abstract
An increasing prevalence of diabetes is known as a main risk for human health in the last future worldwide. There is limited evidence on the potential management of type 2 diabetes mellitus using bioactive peptides from marine organisms, besides from milk and beans. We summarized here recent advances in our understanding of the regulation of glucose metabolism using bioactive peptides from natural proteins, including regulation of insulin-regulated glucose metabolism, such as protection and reparation of pancreatic β-cells, enhancing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and influencing the sensitivity of insulin and the signaling pathways, and inhibition of bioactive peptides to dipeptidyl peptidase IV, α-amylase and α-glucosidase activities. The present paper tried to understand the underlying mechanism involved and the structure characteristics of bioactive peptides responsible for its antidiabetic activities to prospect the utilization of rich marine organism proteins.

Abstract
Peptides, especially intracellular functional peptides that can play a particular role inside a cell, have attracted attention as promising materials to control cell fate. However, hydrophilic materials like peptides are difficult for cells to internalize. Therefore, the screening and design of intracellular functional peptides are more difficult than that of extracellular ones. An effective high-throughput screening system for intracellular functional peptides has not been reported. Here, we demonstrate a novel peptide array system for screening intracellular functional peptides, in which both cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) domain and photo-cleavable linkers are used. By using this screening system, we determined how the cellular uptake properties of CPP-conjugated peptides varied depending on the properties of the conjugated peptides. We found that the internalization ability of CPP-conjugated peptides varied greatly depending on the property of the conjugated peptides, and anionic peptides drastically decreased the uptake ability. We summarized our data in a scatter diagram that plots hydrophobicity versus isoelectric point (pI) of conjugated peptides. These results define a peptide library suitable for screening of intracellular functional peptides. Thus, our system, including the diagram, is a promising tool for searching biological active molecules such as peptide-based drugs.

Abstract
Label-free colorimetric assays using metallic nanoparticles have received much recent attention, for their application in simple and sensitive methods for detection of biomolecules. Short peptide probes that can bind to analyte biomolecules are attractive ligands in molecular nanotechnology; however, identification of biological recognition motifs is usually based on trial-and-error experiments. Herein, a peptide probe was screened for colorimetric detection of angiotensin II (Ang II) using a mechanism for non-crosslinking aggregation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The dual-function peptides, which bind to the analyte and induce AgNP aggregation, were identified using a two-step strategy: (1) screening of an Ang II-binding peptide from an Ang II receptor sequence library, using SPOT technology, which enable peptides synthesis on cellulose membranes via an Fmoc method and (2) selection of peptide probes that effectively induce aggregation of AgNPs using a photolinker modified peptide array. Using the identified peptide probe, KGKNKRRR, aggregation of AgNPs was detected by observation of a pink color in the absence of Ang II, whereas AgNPs remained dispersed in the presence of Ang II (yellow). The color changes were not observed in the presence of other hormone molecules. Ang II could be detected within 15 min, with a detection limit of 10 µM, by measuring the ratio of absorbance at 400 nm and 568 nm; the signal could also be observed with the naked eye. These data suggest that the peptide identified here could be used as a probe for simple and rapid colorimetric detection of Ang II. This strategy for the identification of functional peptides shows promise for the development of colorimetric detection of various diagnostically important biomolecules.
