This work studied the production of Transglutaminase (TGase) using wheat bran as carbon source. The medium components and culture conditions were optimized by statistical Box-Behnken response surface methodology. The release of active Transglutaminase was enhanced by adding (i) protease to remove pro-region to make inactive enzyme to active form, (ii) Cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) which facilitated more secretion. Under finally optimized conditions viz. 5 g wheat bran, protease: 39.14 U, magnesium chloride (MgCl): 0.10 M, CTAB: 0.08% and inoculation size: 2% led to 4-fold (12.949 ± 0.061 IU/g) increased TGase production over that of un-optimized conditions. The application of TGase was shown to be useful in effective casein cross-linking.

Micelle systems using safe food-grade biopolymers are of particular interest for the encapsulation and delivery of nutrition components. Micellar casein (MC) was assembled using transglutaminase (TGase) to couple with phosphoserine peptide, which enhance the stability of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from algae oil. The mechanism behind the construction of MC-phosphoserine peptide and the encapsulation of DHA was explored.

Background: The escalating global prevalence of food allergies has intensified the need for hypoallergenic food products. Transglutaminase (TGase)-mediated crosslinking has garnered significant attention for its potential to reduce the allergenicity of food proteins. This study aimed to investigate the effects of TGase crosslinking on the potential allergenicity and conformational changes in a dual-protein system composed of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) and soy protein isolate (SPI) at varying mass ratios (10:0, 7:3, 5:5, 3:7 and 0:10 (w/w)).

The transglutaminase (TGMs) family plays a crucial role in regulating mammalian reproduction, yet its impact on poultry reproductive traits has not been extensively studied. In this study, we identified eight members of the TGMs family in chickens and examined the contributions of genetic variations of coagulation factor XIII A chain (F13A1), transglutaminase 4 (TGM4), and LOC101749664 to selective breeding in commercial layers through genetic variation response pattern analysis. Transcriptome data from various tissues of high- and low-egg-yielding Gushi chickens revealed significant positive correlations between the mRNA expression levels of TGM4 and F13A1 genes and egg production (P < 0.
