NEW PEPTIDE HAVING THICK TASTE-IMPARTING FUNCTION AND METHOD FOR IMPARTING THICK TASTE TO FOOD BY USING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new peptide having a thick taste-imparting function and also a food imparted with the thick taste effectively by adding the peptide without damaging its flavor.;SOLUTION: The peptides consisting of one or more sequences represented by the following sequence formula are found out to have the thick taste-imparting function. The sequence formula (I): Asp-Trp-Arg-Gly-Gly-Arg, the sequence formula (II): Asp-Trp-Arg-Gly-Gly-Arg-Thr, the sequence (III): Phe-Lys-Tyr, the sequence (IV): Val-Leu-Gly-Tyr, the sequence (V): Leu-Gly-Gln-Trp, the sequence (VI): Ala-Ile-Gly-Glu-Trp, the sequence (VII): Ile-Thr-Trp-Glu, the sequence (VIII): Val-Trp-Glu-Tyr, the sequence (IX): Phe-Asp-Trp, the sequence (X): Phe-Glu-Trp.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
