Abstract
The objective was to understand the impacts of secondary lipid oxidation products on calpain-2 activity and autolysis and, subsequently, to determine the quantity and localization of modification sites. 2-Hexenal and 4-hydroxynonenal incubation significantly decreased calpain-2 activity and slowed the progression of autolysis, while malondialdehyde had minimal impact on calpain-2 activity and autolysis. Specific modification sites were determined with LC-MS/MS, including distinct malondialdehyde modification sites on the calpain-2 catalytic and regulatory subunits. 2-Hexenal modification sites were observed on the calpain-2 catalytic subunit. Intact protein mass analysis with MALDI-MS revealed that a significant number of modifications on the calpain-2 catalytic and regulatory subunits are likely to exist. These observations confirm that specific lipid oxidation products modify calpain-2 and may affect the calpain-2 functionality. The results of these novel experiments have implications for healthy tissue metabolism, skeletal muscle growth, and post-mortem meat tenderness development.

Effects of Different Phenolic Compounds on the Redox State of Myoglobin and Prevention of Discoloration, Lipid and Protein Oxidation of Refrigerated Longtail Tuna ( Thunnus tonggol) Slices. Foods 2024; 13:1238. [PMID: 38672909 PMCID: PMC11048871 DOI: 10.3390/foods13081238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 04/13/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Effects of different phenolic compounds on the redox state of myoglobin and their potential for preserving the color and chemical quality of refrigerated longtail tuna (Thunnus tonggol) slices were studied. Purified myoglobin from dark muscle (15.83 kDa) was prepared. Catechin, EGCG, quercetin, and hyperoside affected the absorption spectra and redox state of metmyoglobin (metMb) at 4 °C for up to 72 h differently. Reduction of metMb to oxymyoglobin (oxyMb) was notably observed for two flavonols (EGCG and quercetin) at 50 and 100 ppm. Based on the reducing ability of metMb, EGCG and quercetin were selected for further study. Longtail tuna slices were treated with EGCG and quercetin at 200 and 400 mg/kg. Color (a* and a*/b*), proportion of myoglobin content, and quality changes were monitored over 72 h at 4 °C. Tuna slices treated with 200 mg/kg EGCG showed better maintenance of oxyMb and color as well as lower lipid oxidation (PV and TBARS) and protein oxidation (carbonyl content) than the remaining samples. Nevertheless, EGCG at 400 mg/kg exhibited lower efficacy in retaining the quality of tuna slices. Thus, EGCG at 200 mg/kg could be used to maintain the color and prolong the shelf life of refrigerated longtail tuna slices.

Abstract
The color of fresh pork is a crucial quality attribute that significantly influences consumer perception and purchase decisions. This review first explores consumer expectations and discrimination regarding pork color, as well as an overview of the underlying factors that, from farm-to-fork, contribute to its variation. Understanding the husbandry factors, peri- and post-mortem factors and consumer preferences is essential for the pork industry to meet market demands effectively. This review then delves into current knowledge of pork myoglobin chemistry, its modifications and pork discoloration. Pork myoglobin, which has certain peculiarities comparted to other meat species, plays a weak role in determining pork color, and a thorough understanding of the biochemical changes it undergoes is crucial to understand and improve color stability. Furthermore, the growing role of proteomics as a high-throughput approach and its application as a powerful research tool in meat research, mainly to decipher the biochemical mechanisms involved in pork color determination and identify protein biomarkers, are highlighted. Based on an integrative muscle biology approach, the available proteomics studies on pork color have enabled us to provide the first repertoire of pork color biomarkers, to shortlist and propose a list of proteins for evaluation, and to provide valuable insights into the interconnected biochemical processes implicated in pork color determination. By highlighting the contributions of proteomics in elucidating the biochemical mechanisms underlying pork color determination, the knowledge gained hold significant potential for the pork industry to effectively meet market demands, enhance product quality, and ensure consistent and appealing pork color.

Supranutritional Supplementation of Vitamin E Influences Myoglobin Post-Translational Modifications in Postmortem Beef Longissimus Lumborum Muscle. MEAT AND MUSCLE BIOLOGY 2022.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTM) in myoglobin (Mb) can influence fresh meat color stability. Dietary supplementation of vitamin E improves beef color stability by delaying lipid oxidation–induced Mb oxidation and influences proteome profile of postmortem beef skeletal muscles. Nonetheless, the influence of vitamin E on Mb PTM in postmortem beef skeletal muscles has yet to be investigated. Therefore, the objective of the current study was to examine the effect of dietary vitamin E on Mb PTM in postmortem beef longissimus lumborum muscle. Beef longissimus lumborum muscle samples (24 h postmortem) were obtained from the carcasses of 9 vitamin E–supplemented (VITE; 1,000 IU vitamin E diet/heifer·d−1for 89 d) and 9 control (CONT; no supplemental vitamin E) heifers. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to separate Mb from other sarcoplasmic proteins of beef longissimus lumborum muscle. Tandem mass spectrometry identified multiple PTM (phosphorylation, acetylation, 4-hydroxynonenalalkylation, methylation, dimethylation, trimethylation, and carboxymethylation) in the protein bands (17 kDa) representing Mb. The amino acids susceptible to phosphorylation were threonine (T) and tyrosine (Y), whereas lysine (K) residues were prone to other PTM. The same sites of phosphorylation (T34, T67, Y103), carboxymethylation (K77, K78), and 4-hydroxynonenal alkylation (K77, K78, K79) were identified in Mb from CONT and VITE samples, indicating that these PTM were not influenced by the vitamin E supplementation in cattle. Nonetheless, differential occurrence of acetylation, methylation, dimethylation, and trimethylation were identified in Mb from CONT and VITE samples. Overall, a greater number of amino acids were modified in CONT than VITE, suggesting that the supplementation of vitamin E decreased thenumbers of post-translationally modified residues in Mb. Additionally, PTM at K87, K96, K98, and K102 were unique to CONT, whereas PTM at K118 were unique to VITE. These findings suggested that dietary supplementation of vitamin E in beef cattle might protect amino acid residues in Mb—especially those located spatially close to proximal histidine—from undergoing PTM, thereby improving Mb redox stability.

Abstract
A comparative study of the effects of malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal on protein oxidation. Interaction mechanism between lipid oxidation production and protein at temperatures were firstly studied. Hydrogen bonding was the main driving force for bonding. Malondialdehyde had a strong ability to bind MP and accelerated protein oxidation.
In this work, the binding mechanism of myofibrillar protein (MP) with malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal under low temperature vacuum heating was investigated via multispectroscopic and molecular docking. The results showed that binding interaction and increasing temperature caused significant changes in the conformations as well as a decrease in the value of protein intrinsic fluorescence, surface hydrophobicity, and fluorescence excitation-emission matrix spectra. Furthermore, the decrease in α-helix and β-turn, increase in β-sheet and a random coil of MP, imply the MP molecules to be more unfolded. Isothermal titration calorimetry and molecular docking results showed that main driving force for binding with MP was hydrogen bond, and the binding ability of malondialdehyde was superior to that of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal. Moreover, increasing the heating temperature was beneficial to the binding reaction and intensified the conformational transition of MP. These results will provide a reference for further studies on the lipid and protein interaction of sturgeon.

Abstract
Color is an essential criterion for assessing the freshness, quality, and acceptability of red meat and certain fish with red muscle. Myoglobin (Mb), one of the significant pigment substances, is the uppermost reason to keep the color of red meat. Their oxidation and browning are easy to occur throughout the storage and processing period. Natural antioxidants are substances with antioxidant activity extracted from plants, such as plant polyphenols. Consumers prefer natural antioxidants due to safety concerns and limitations on the use of synthetic antioxidants. In recent years, plant polyphenols have been widely used as antioxidants to slow down the deterioration of product quality due to oxidation. As natural antioxidants, it is necessary to strengthen the researches on the antioxidant mechanism of plant polyphenols to solve the discoloration of red meat and certain fish. A fundamental review of the relationship between Mb oxidation and color stability is discussed. The inhibiting mechanisms of polyphenols on lipid and Mb oxidation are presented and investigated. Meanwhile, this review comprehensively outlines applications of plant polyphenols in improving color stability. This will provide reference and theoretical support for the rational application of plant polyphenols in green meat processing.

Abstract
Muscle is a highly organized apparatus with a hierarchicmicrostructure that offers the protection of cellular components againstreactive oxygen species (ROS). However, fresh meat immediately postmortem andmeat undergoing processing become susceptible to oxidation due to physicaldisruption and the influx of molecular oxygen. Upon the activation byendogenous prooxidants, oxygen species are rapidly produced, and bothmyofibrillar and sarcoplasmic proteins become their primary targets. Direct ROSattack of amino acid sidechains and peptide backbone leads to proteinconformational changes, conversion to carbonyl and thiol derivatives, andsubsequent aggregation and polymerization. Interestingly, mild radical andnonradical oxidation enables orderly protein physicochemical changes, which explainswhy gels formed by ROS-modified myofibrillar protein has improved rheologicalproperties and binding potential in comminuted meat and meat emulsions. Theincorporation of phenolic and other multi-functional compounds promotes gelnetwork formation, fat emulsification, and water immobilization; however,extensive protein modification induced by high levels of ROS impairs proteinfunctionality. Now recognized to be a natural occurrence, once-neglectedprotein oxidation has drawn much interest and is being intensively studiedwithin the international community of meat science. This review describes thehistory and evolution of muscle protein oxidation, the mechanism andfunctionality impact hereof, and innovative oxidant/antioxidant strategies tocontrol and manipulate oxidation in the context of meat processing, storage,and quality. It is hoped that the review will stimulate in-depth discussion of scientificas well as industrial relevance and importance of protein oxidation and inspirerobust international collaboration in addressing this global challenge.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTM) of proteins play critical roles in biological processes. PTM of muscle proteins influence meat quality. Nonetheless, myoglobin (Mb) PTM and their impact on fresh beef color stability have not been characterized yet. Therefore, our objectives were to identify Mb PTM in beef longissimus lumborum muscle during postmortem aging and to characterize their influence on color stability. The longissimus lumborum muscles from 9 (n = 9) beef carcasses (24 h postmortem) were subjected to wet aging for 0, 7, 14, and 21 d. At the end of each wet-aging period, steaks were fabricated. One steak for analyses of PTM was immediately frozen at −80°C, whereas other steaks were assigned to refrigerated storage in the darkness under aerobic packaging. Instrumental color and biochemical attributes were evaluated on day 0, 3, or 6 of storage. Mb PTM were analyzed using two-dimensional electrophoresis and tandem mass spectrometry. Surface redness (a* value), color stability, and Mb concentration decreased (P < 0.05) upon aging. Gel image analyses identified 6 Mb spots with similar molecular weight (17 kDa) but different isoelectric pH. Tandem mass spectrometry identified multiple PTM (phosphorylation, methylation, carboxymethylation, acetylation, and 4-hydroxynonenal alkylation) in these 6 isoforms. The amino acids susceptible to phosphorylation were serine (S), threonine (T), and tyrosine, whereas other PTM were detected in lysine (K), arginine (R), and histidine residues. Additionally, distal histidine (position 64), critical to heme stability, was found to be alkylated. Overall, Mb PTM increased with aging. The aging-induced PTM, especially those occurring close to hydrophobic heme pocket, could disrupt Mb tertiary structure, influence heme affinity, and compromise oxygen binding capacity, leading to decreased color stability of fresh beef. Furthermore, PTM at K45, K47, and K87 were unique to Mb from non-aged beef, whereas PTM at R31, T51, K96, K98, S121, R139, and K147 were unique to Mb from aged counterparts, indicating that these Mb PTM could be used as novel biomarkers for fresh beef color stability.
