ABSTRACT
Selenoproteins found in selenium (Se)-enriched vegetables play a vital role in maintaining human health. In this study, four Se-containing broccoli proteins (Se-BP albumin, globulin, prolamin, and glutelin) were continuous extracted by Osborne method. Three ultrafiltered fractions were subsequently obtained from the glutelin hydrolysate, composed of Se-contained broccoli peptides (Se-Bp) with different molecular weights (MW), namely, < 1 kDa, 1-3 kDa, and 3-10 kDa. Glutelin exhibited the highest protein yield (65.60 ± 1.07%), purity (78.39 ± 0.95%), nutritional value, organic Se content (88.05 ± 0.32% of total Se content), and Se speciation distribution (selenocystine, selenomethionine, methylselenocysteine, and selenoethionine). Additionally, the antioxidant activity of different MW of Se-Bp was assessed using electron spin resonance spectroscopy. The results revealed that antioxidant activity of the candidate peptide is dependent upon its Se content, amino acid composition, and MW, especially Se-Bp with MW of 1-3 kDa displayed the strongest free radical scavenging ability.
