Identification of novel α-glucosidase and ACE inhibitory peptides from Douchi using peptidomics approach and molecular docking.

ABSTRACT: In this study, the effect of Douchi extract (DWE) on α-glucosidase and angiotensin-converting enzymes (ACE) were investigated, and several novel peptides with inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase and ACE were identified using peptidomics approach based on UPLC-MS/MS. The average inhibition rates of DWE on α-glucosidase and ACE were 73.75-78.10% and 4.56-27.07%, respectively. In the DWE, a total of 710 peptides were detected. Two novel peptides with potential inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase were identified using the correlation analysis, database alignment and molecular docking methods. They were DVFRAIPSEVL and DRPSINGLAGAN, with the IC₅₀ values of 0.121 and 0.128 mg/mL, respectively. Also, four novel peptides with potential inhibitory activit
