Bioactive protein/peptides of flaxseed: a review

This article would be helpful to promote the application of FP/bioactive peptides in both research and commercialization.Key findings and conclusionsAs interactions between flaxseed gum (FG) and FP interfere with FP isolation, removal of FG before extraction is necessary. Therefore, combination strategies are required for FP production. Lab-scale peptide generation is both costly and time-consuming. To overcome this challenge, in-silico methods are suggested, including mathematical simulation of protein hydrolysis, bioprospecting for bioactive peptides, and molecular docking studies. Gastrointestinal analysis is recommended for studying practical applications of FP-derived peptides as bioactive nutrients.
