This work is a literature overview on angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory/
antihypertensive peptides in food protein sources. The following aspects related to peptides …

Angiotensin‐I‐converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides are able to inhibit the activity of
ACE, which is the key enzymatic factor mediating systemic hypertension. ACE‐inhibitory …

The dairy industry generates increased amounts of whey from both cheese and casein
production facilities. Whey presents an elevated content of lactose and proteins, which are …

Lactoferrin (Lf) is an iron-binding glycoprotein of the transferrin family, which is expressed in
most biological fluids with particularly high levels in mammalian milk. Its multiple activities lie …

Production of peptides with various effects from proteins of different sources continues to
receive academic attention. Researchers of different disciplines are putting increasing efforts …

Silkworm pupa (Bombyx mori) protein was hydrolyzed using gastrointestinal
