Description
Summary:Various compounds of plant origin can contribute to the control and prevention of diseases considered a public health problem, including chronic-degenerative diseases. Plant-based proteins are an excellent alternative compared to those of animal origin due to their lower carbon footprint, and they are also an excellent source of peptides that have different biological activities. The aim of this work was to analyze the research progress on the protein hydrolysates/peptides that are encrypted in the storage proteins of the seeds of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Studies have focused on its production process (enzymatic hydrolysis, microbial fermentation, and met-hod synthetic), purification and identification and evidence of its functional activities such as antioxidant, antihypertensive, antidiabetic among others. The research that has been carried out and that is concentrated in this document aim that in the future protein hydrolysates derived from the bean that have demonstrated biological activity (in vitro and in vivo) can offer nutraceutical and therapeutic potential in addition to their incorporation into the development of functional foods.
