Effect of carbonyl-amino condensation, non-covalent cross-linking and conformational changes induced by ultrasound-assisted Maillard reaction on lysinoalanine formation in silkworm pupa protein.

The inhibition of cross-linked lysinoalanine (LAL) formation in silkworm pupa protein isolates (SPPI) by Maillard reaction (using varying xylose concentration) and ultrasound treatment was studied. Results showed that sonicated SPPI was effectively grafted with high concentration of xylose (5 %), resulting in the lowest LAL content, which was 48.75 % and 30.64 % lower than the control and ultrasound-treated samples, respectively. Chemical bond analysis showed that the combined treatment destroyed the ionic bonds, intrachain (g-g-t), and interchain (g-g-g) disulfide bonds, but stimulated the polymerization of hydrogen and hydrophobic bonds between SPPI and xylose, and as well enhanced the net negative charge between SPPI/Xylose complexes. The particles of the complexes were more loose, dispersed and rough, and had a stronger hydrophilic microenvironment, accompanied by alterations in microscopic, secondary and tertiary structures. Ultrasound treatment induced the breakdown of the oxidative cross-linking in SPPI, and promoted the sulfhydryl group-dehydroalanine binding and the carbonyl-amino condensation of the protein and xylose, and thus inhibited the formation of cross-linked LAL. Furthermore, the physicochemical and structural parameters were highly interrelated with cross-linked LAL content (|r| > 0.9). The outcomes provided a novel avenue and theoretical basis for minimizing LAL formation in SPPI and improving the nutrition and safety of SPPI. Copyright © 2024 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
