FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES OF BOVINE CASEIN PROTEINS AND PEPTIDES

This review is a brief description of the current state of research on the functional and bioactivite properties of caseins, their hydrolysates and peptides. The functional properties of casein and casein-originated hydrolysates and peptides reflect the natural features of their molecules and environmental characteristics. Many proteolytic enzymes are used for modifying functional and biological properties of caseins. Enzymatic modifications influence the conformation of casein molecules and, in consequence, their properties. The functional properties of caseins may improve upon partial hydrolysis. Peptides derived from casein proteins are capable of affecting the biological functions of an organism. These effects can be antihypertensive, antimicrobial, antithrombotic, immunoregulating and opioid.

W latach 2022-2024 kwartalnik naukowy Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences realizuje projekt nr RCN/SP/0520/2021/1 finansowany ze środków budżetu państwa – Ministerstwo Edukacji i Nauki w ramach programu „Rozwój czasopism naukowych”. Dofinansowanie wynosi 120 000 zł. W ramach projektu podejmowane są działania zmierzające do podniesienia poziomu praktyk wydawniczych i edytorskich, zwiększenia wpływu czasopism na rozwój nauki oraz utrzymania się czasopism w międzynarodowym obiegu naukowym.

In the years 2022-2024, the scientific quarterly Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences accomplishes a project no. RCN/SP/0520/2021/1 financed from the state budged – Ministry of Education and Science Republic of Poland in the framework of a program “Development of scientific journals”. The financing amounts to 120,000 PLN. The program aims at improving the level of publishing and editing practices, increasing the impact of scientific journals on science development, and extending the international range of scientific journals.
