Identification of Novel Antioxidative Peptides Derived from a Thermolytic Hydrolysate of Ovotransferrin by LC-MS/MS
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ovotransferrin is a glycoprotein well-known for its iron-binding property. Ovotransferrin was reported to have antioxidative properties, but the presence of antioxidant peptides within the protein has not been reported. The purpose of the study was to characterize the antioxidant peptides within ovotransferrin. Ovotransferrin was sonicated and hydrolyzed by thermolysin, and peptides from the hydrolysate were fractionated by ion-exchange fast protein liquid chromatography and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Fourteen peptides derived from ovotransferrin were characterized using LC-MS/MS, and their oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values were determined using synthetic peptides. Two tetrapeptides (Trp-Asn-Ile-Pro and Gly-Trp-Asn-Ile) showed the highest antioxidant activity. Interestingly, the addition of amino acid residues to either the N or C terminus of the two peptides decreased the antioxidant activity, suggesting that the motif of Trp-Asn-Ile is responsible for the high antioxidant activity.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
