In silico Assessment of Antihypertensive Potential of Sweet Proteins

In silico Assessment of Antihypertensive Potential of Sweet Proteins

The consumption of low-calorie artificial sweeteners by patients affected by diseases linked to sugar consumption may be associated with diverse side effects. Hence, sweet proteins derived majorly from under-utilized plants have been proposed as good replacements. The ability of sweet proteins to release Angiostensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory peptides was investigated. ACE mediates...

Rotimi Solomon » I have PhD in biochemistry with research in investigating the alterations of intermediary metabolism during diseases especially in comorbidity. I have since gained experience in applying molecular biology and bioinformatics tools to studying the molecular mechanisms of pathology and I am, at present, applying this in my research with the view to developing diagnosis and therapeutics. I have... view full profile
