Atlantic bonito meat has economic potential as an alternative to mackerel consumption. Thus, considering the presence of myoglobin (Mb) in red fish muscles, we report characterisation Mb compared and Tinker Mbs since this haemoprotein is implicated lipid oxidation preservation. A plethora biochemical approaches were employed purified from determine autoxidation rate constant (0.189±0.009 h−1), melting temperature (Tm= 72.84±1.02 °C) pseudoperoxidase activity different conditions (pH several...
Several studies highlight the identification of some enzymes with additional abilities, especially those involved in metabolic pathways and/or host defence processes, classified as multitasking proteins. In this context, we report characterization melleatin (17.5-kDa), a enzyme isolated from Armillaria mellea fruiting bodies. Melleatin inhibits protein synthesis and displayed unexpected enzymatic action. Indeed, structural (primary structure 3D model) showed that belongs to His-Me finger...
Italy represents a territory rich of common bean landraces, most them still uncharacterized. Thus, here, the proximal composition and metabolic profiles (fatty acid composition, total free amino acids) as well polyphenols antioxidant capacities both ‘Cerato’ ‘Curniciello’ dry beans, cultivated in Caserta’s rural areas (Southern Italy) were evaluated, comparison with other local known beans. The average vintages values exhibit lower content crude proteins (21.18 vs 23.41 g/100 g), lipids...
