The peptic hydrolysis of bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) was performed to establish the basis for producing a low-phenylalanine peptide rather than a free amino acid mixture for use in the dietetics of phenylketonuria. A 1% β-Lg solution (pH 1.5) was incubated with 0.01% pepsin at 37°C for 24 hr. The peptides produced were fractionated by high-performance liquid chromatograhy to analyze their constituent amino acids. Most of the major peptides were identified in the light of the primary structure of α-Lg to assign 31 cutting points in their protein molecule. These included cutting points at thecarboxyl side of Phe-82, Phe-105 and Phe-136. This result suggests that further hydrolysis of the peptic hydrolysate of β-Lg with an exopeptidase, particularly with a carboxypeptidase, would be effective in liberating phenylalanine to produce a low-phenylalanine peptide mixture.
