The potential roles of Pinto bean (Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Pinto) bioactive peptides in regulating physiological functions: Protease activating, lipase inhibiting and bile acid binding activities

The aim of the study was to explore the physiological effects of Pinto bean peptides (PBP) and their structure-activity relationships. Five pre-screened PBPs were investigated. The results showed that PBPs enhanced the protease activity ranging from 333 to 400%, and conversely, they inhibited lipase...
