摘要: 以牦牛乳干酪苦味肽RPKHPIK(RK7)和KVLPVPQ(KQ7)为研究对象,通过生物信息学方法,使用ExPASy-ProtParam、Innovagen和PepDraw等工具计算RK7和KQ7的理化性质,利用分子对接技术揭示抑制α-淀粉酶的作用机制,结合体外实验测定α-淀粉酶抑制活性。研究表明:RK7和KQ7的分子质量分别为875.07 Da和779.98 Da,疏水性分别为42.86%和71.42%;分子对接显示α-淀粉酶中的His305、Glu233、Trp59和Trp58与RK7和KQ7的结合起重要作用,并且Asp197、Glu233和Asp300是影响α-淀粉酶活性的关键氨基酸;体外活性验证发现,RK7和KQ7 α-淀粉酶的IC50分别为0.45 mg/mL和0.86 mg/mL。本研究通过生物信息学方法结合体外活性实验,高效快速获得牦牛乳源α-淀粉酶抑制肽,并通过分子对接技术探究分子间的作用机制,为α-淀粉酶抑制肽的研究提供新思路。

Abstract: In this study, the physicochemical properties of two bitter peptides derived from yak cheese, RPKHPIK (RK7) and KVLPVPQ (KQ7) were calculated by using online bioinformatics tools such as ExPASy-ProtParam, Innovagen, and Pep-Draw. Molecular docking was used to elucidate the mechanism of the inhibitory effect of the two peptides on α-amylase and their α-amylase inhibitory activity was determined. The results showed that the molecular masses of RK7 and KQ7 were 875.07 and 779.98 Da, and their hydrophobicity were 42.86% and 71.42%, respectively. Molecular docking showed that His305, Glu233, Trp59 and Trp58 in α-amylase played an important role in binding to RK7 and KQ7. Furthermore, Asp197, Glu233 and Asp300 were the key amino acids for the activity of α-amylase. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of RK7 and KQ7 against α-amylase were 0.45 and 0.86 mg/mL, respectively. The findings of this study provide new evidence for the study of α-amylase inhibitory peptides.
