Casein and whey protein were hydrolyzed using 11 different commercially available enzyme preparations. Emulsion-forming ability and emulsion stability of the digests were measured as well as biochemical properties with the objective to study the relations between hydrolysate characteristics and emulsion properties. All whey protein hydrolysates formed emulsions with bimodal droplet size distrib...

We have failed to detect the presence of mannose-6-phosphate in the oligosaccharide moiety of glycoproteins from pea (Pisum sativum L. cv Burpeeana) cotyledons using an assay system sensitive to 10 picomoles of mannose-6-phosphate. We were also unable to demonstrate any retention of glycosidase activity from pea seedlings and pea cotyledons on Sepharose-coupled phosphomannosyl receptor proteins...

Leucine has been suggested to have the potential to modulate muscle protein metabolism by increasing muscle protein synthesis. The objective of this study was to investigate the surplus value of the co-ingestion of free leucine with protein hydrolysate and carbohydrate following physical activity in elderly men. Eight elderly men (mean age 73 +/- 1 years) were randomly assigned to two cross-ove...

Etioplasts capable of incorporating (14)C-leucine into protein have been isolated from dark-grown pea and wheat plants. The requirements for leucine incorporation for etioplasts were similar to those for chloroplasts. An ATP-generating system, Mg(2+), and GTP were required. The amino-acid-incorporation activity of etioplasts from wheat was comparable to that of chloroplasts on an RNA basis, whe...

An -ever free relative (FR) is felicitous only when the speaker doesn't know, or doesn't care about, the identity of the entity denoted. (1) is felicitous if, for example, the speaker doesn’t know if Mary is cooking pea soup or spinach (although he may know it is green). That is, the basic level nominal (in the sense of Cruse 1977) must be undetermined. When an -ever FR contains a nominal head ...

Introduction: Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) is one of the leading causes mortality with obesity being greatest risk factors. Increased protein intake has been found to increase satiety, that could potentially aid in weight control. However, much research elusive on specifics effects plant-based protein, specifically pea satiety and responses linked appetite. The purpose this review was investigate post...
