Sumario:Angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are used extensively to control hypertension. In this study, a computer-assisted experimental approach was used to screen ACE-inhibiting peptides from X. sorbifolum seed meal (XSM). The process conditions for XSM hydrolysis were optimized through the orthogonal experimental method combined with a database. The optimal conditions for ACE inhibition included an alkaline protease dose of 5%, 45 °C, 15 min and pH 9.5. The hydrolysate was analyzed by LC-MS/MS, and 10 optimal peptides were screened. Molecular docking results revealed four peptides (GGLPGFDPA, IMAVLAIVL, ETYFIVR, and INPILLPK) with ACE inhibitory potential. At 0.1 mg/mL, the synthetic peptides GGLPGFDPA, ETYFIVR, and INPILLPK provided ACE inhibition rates of 24.89%, 67.02%, and 4.19%, respectively. GGLPGFDPA and ETYFIVR maintained high inhibitory activities during in vitro digestions. Therefore, the XSM protein may be a suitable material for preparing ACE inhibitory peptides, and computer-assisted experimental screening is an effective, accurate and promising method for discovering new active peptides.
