ID 8110
Name peptide derived from tuna backbone protein
sequence
VKAGFAWTANQQLS

Function:
Peptide exhibited higher activity for lipid peroxidation inhibition than that of a-tocopherol after 7 days. The DPPH*, hydroxyl and superoxide radicals scavenging activity of ascorbic acid was a little higher than that of the peptide. *DPPH - the stable free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl
