Soy isoflavones have several biological activities such as anti-estrogenic, anti-oxidative, and anti-cancer properties. However, they are present in biologically inactive glycosidic forms in soybean and their biological effects are dependent on deglycosylation during soy-processing or in the human gut. In these directions, food-associated and gut microbes possessing β-glucosidases activities hold potential to enhance the nutraceutical potential of soybean products by increasing the bioavailability of isoflavones. This review focuses on β-glucosidases-active microbes, their strain and species-specific variations and its impact on isoflavone aglycone content of the soybean-based foods. Further, microbial sources for isolating the native and recombinant β-glucosidases and their varying biochemical properties, and substrate specificities are discussed. Finally, augmentation of bioactivities of soybean products by fermentation with β-glucosidases-active microbes or treatment with purified β-glucosidases is discussed.","PeriodicalId":12347,"journal":{"name":"Food Biotechnology","volume":"37 1","pages":"235 - 259"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49664569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Six major probiotic-type strains were screened for β-glucosidase activity, and two annotated β-glucosidase genes were cloned and characterized from L. acidophilus. These proteins were more active on phosphorylated pNPG than on pNPG, indicating a Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent pathway involving phosphoglucosidase for the uptake and metabolism of β-glucosides such as isoflavones. The screening of these strains for the bioconversion of isoflavones showed above 90% isoflavone glucoside hydrolysis for four strains, with L. rhamnosus showing the highest hydrolysis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report comparing glucoside hydrolysis by whole bacterial cells with cell extracts and purified candidate proteins.","PeriodicalId":12347,"journal":{"name":"Food Biotechnology","volume":"37 1","pages":"260 - 279"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46374154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compared to the wild-type lipase and A75G, the A75C showed higher thermostability at 40°C and better alkali resistance in pH 9.0–10.0 after incubation for 1 h. The kinetic parameters, structural characteristics and surface hydrophobicity of the lipases were determined. The results indicated that the secondary structure was hardly changed, while mutants exhibited higher activity, thermostability and hydrophobicity.

Estimating/achieving optimal tenderness are not straightforward because of their susceptibility to complex factors. Efforts toward fostering optimal tenderness in meat are called meat tenderization and can be categorized under physical, chemical, and biological approaches. While physical tenderization involves mechanically breaking the muscle myofibrillar/connective tissues, chemical techniques apply chemical/synthetic additives. Conversely, the most sustainable biological approaches use natural products (mainly proteases) to foster meat tenderness. This study presents an updated review of natural products from plants, animals, and microbes that have gained applicability as meat tenderizers. We have discussed in detail the comparative advantages and disadvantages of the different natural sources of tenderizers and presented some overarching factors that limit the widespread acceptance of natural tenderizers over synthetic chemicals. Finally, prospects for achieving natural products as a more global choice for tenderizing meat were suggested.","PeriodicalId":12347,"journal":{"name":"Food Biotechnology","volume":"37 1","pages":"136 - 165"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48958258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
