DPP-IV Inhibitory Peptide against In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion Derived from Goat's Milk Protein and Its Activity Enhancement via Amino Acid Substitution.

Goat milk protein can release a variety of bioactive peptides after digestion, while most of them are digested into free amino acids or dipeptides via the GI tract. We investigated the peptide profiles of goat milk protein following in vitro gastrointestinal digestion using LC-MS/MS and identified 683 bioactive peptides, including 105 DPP-IV inhibitory peptides. Among these peptides, ILDKVGINY (IL), derived from β-lactoglobulin, was found to be high in content and resistance to digestion.
