[Met-Ala-Gly-Val-Asp-His-Ile] This peptide has been identified in hydrolysates of macroalga Palmaria palmata (Harnedy et al, 2015). The peptide has been shown to inhibit the activity of DPP4 [dipeptidyl peptidase 4] (CD26) and might have potential as a functional food ingredient in the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes.
For other proteins (or fragments thereof) with at least one additional activity that differs from the established 'classical' activity of the parent protein see also: Dual identity proteins and Cryptides MiniCOPE Dictionary.
