Identification of Peptides from Ovine Milk Cheese Manufactured with Animal Rennet or Extracts of Cynara cardunculus as Coagulant

Sousa, M. J., Malcata, F. X.·1998·Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

Abstract

Urea-PAGE of the water-insoluble extract (WISE) of ovine raw milk cheeses manufactured with proteinases of Cynara cardunculus or with commercial animal rennet indicated that the animal rennet acts more intensively, in quantitative terms, on ovine beta-, alphas1-, and alphas2-caseins than the plant rennet. The water-soluble extract (WSE) from cheese produced by plant rennet was constituted by fragments of ovine beta- and alphas2-caseins; peptides beta-(f128-*), beta-(f166-*), and beta-(f191-*) were produced only by plant rennet, whereas peptides beta-(f164-*) and beta-(f191-*) were produced only by animal rennet. The peptide beta-(f1-190) was identified as the primary product of ovine beta-casein degradation in the WISE for both rennets. The complementary peptides alphas1-(f1-23) and alphas1-(f24-191) were produced by both rennets from ovine alphas1-casein; however, the bond Phe23-Val24 was cleaved by as early as 7 days in cheese manufactured with C. cardunculus, whereas 28 days had to elapse before that could be detected in the case of animal rennet. The peptide alphas1-(f24-165) was produced only by plant rennet, whereas the peptide alphas1-(f120-191) was produced only by animal rennet. The peptides produced from bovine alphas2-casein in cheese could not be traced as deriving from the action of proteinases from either rennet, so their existence is likely due to proteinases or peptidases released in cheese as a result of its indigenous microflora.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Bands (a), (d) and (g) have electrophoretic mobilities similar to that of the primary product produced by proteinases from C. cardunculus on β-casein (β-I-casein) in bovine, ovine and caprine caseinates, via cleavage of the most susceptible bond Leu192-Tyr193 in bovine β-casein or Leu190-Tyr191 in ovine and caprine β-caseins.

    “Those bands have electrophoretic mobilities similar to that of the primary product produced by proteinases from C. cardunculus on β-casein (i.e.β-I-casein) in bovine [48], ovine and caprine caseinates [56], via cleavage of the most susceptible bond Leu 192 -Tyr 193 in bovine β-casein or Leu 190 -Tyr 191 in ovine and caprine β-caseins (Fig. 1b).”
  • The main hydrolysis sites associated with C. cardunculus coagulant action are Leu127-Thr128, Leu165-Ser166 and Leu192-Tyr193 in bovine β-casein, Leu127-Thr128 and Leu190-Tyr191 in ovine β-casein, and Leu127-Thr128 and Leu190-Tyr191 in caprine β-casein.

    “The main hydrolysis sites identified in association with said coagulant action were Leu 127 -Thr 128 , Leu 165 -Ser 166 and Leu 192 -Tyr 193 in bovine β-casein, Leu 127 -Thr 128 and Leu 190 -Tyr 191 in ovine β-casein [56], and Leu 127 -Thr 128 and Leu 190 -Tyr 191 in caprine β-casein.”
  • The peptides β-casein (f128-), β-casein (f166-) and β-casein (f191-) were produced by plant rennet only, whereas β-casein (f164-) and β-casein (f191-) were produced by animal rennet only.

    “The peptides β-casein (f128-), β-casein (f166-) and β-casein (f191-) were produced by plant rennet only, whereas β-casein (f164-) and β-casein (f191-) were produced by animal rennet only [56].”
  • The peptide αs1-casein (f24-165) is present only in ovine cheese manufactured with C. cardunculus, whereas the peptide αs1-casein (f120-191) was only produced by animal rennet.

    “These bands were identified as the peptide α s1 -casein (f24-165), which is present only in ovine cheese manufactured with C. cardunculus, whereas the peptide α s1casein (f120-191) was only produced by animal rennet [56].”
  • The peptides β-casein (f1-190) and αs-casein (f24-191) are the primary products originated by both coagulants from the corresponding caseins.

    “The peptides β-casein (f1-190) and α s -casein (f24-191) were reported to be the primary products originated by both coagulants from the corresponding caseins [56];”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
