IAF, QGF, and QDF Peptides Exhibit Cholesterol-Lowering Activity through a Statin-like HMG-CoA Reductase Regulation Mechanism: In Silico and In Vitro Approach

In this study, in silico approaches are employed to investigate the binding mechanism of peptides derived from cowpea β-vignin and HMG-CoA reductase. With the obtained information, we designed synthetic peptides to evaluate their in vitro enzyme inhibitory activity. In vitro, the total protein extra...
