Abstract: In this work, the enzymatic hydrolysate of pine nut gluten produced with alkaline protease was isolated and purified by ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-25, Sephadex G-15 and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The structural characteristics of the purified fractions were identified by Q Exactive hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry, and de novo sequencing was performed based on the mass spectral data. Two antioxidant peptides were obtained with amino acid sequence of Glu-Leu-Leu-Lys-Leu-His (ELLKLH) and Glu-Lys-Asp-Phe-His-Leu (EKDFHL), respectively. After solid-phase synthesis, the purity of the peptides was 99.67% and 95.15%, respectively. The results of antioxidant activities showed that the DPPH free radical scavenging rates of ELLKLH and EKDFHL at a concentration of 1 000 μmol/mL were 38.26% and 29.54%, respectively, and the iron ion chelating rates were 56.44% and 48.66%, respectively.
