In the current study, an efficient method had been developed to acquire the antioxidant hydrolysate of monkfish muscle protein (MPH) using trypsin by an orthogonal (L9(3)4) test. Under the optimum conditions of enzymolysis time 4 h, enzyme-to-substrate ratio (E/S) 2%, enzymolysis temperature 40 °C and pH 8.0, the DH (Degree of hydrolysis) and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of MPH reached 19.83 ± 0.82% and 58.05 ± 3.01%, respectively. By using ultrafiltration, gel filtration chromatography and reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), three antioxidant pentapeptides were isolated from MPH, and their amino acid sequences were identified as Glu-Trp-Pro-Ala-Gln (MPH-P1), Phe-Leu-His-Arg-Pro (MPH-P2), and Leu-Met-Gly-Gln-Trp (MPH-P3) with molecular weights of 629.68 Da, 668.80 Da, and 633.77 Da, respectively. MPH-P1, MPH-P2, and MPH-P3 exhibited good scavenging activities on hydroxyl radical (EC50 0.269, 0.114 and 0.040 mg/ml), DPPH radical (EC50 2.408, 3.751, and 1.399 mg/ml), and superoxide anion radical (EC50 0.624, 0.101, and 0.042 mg/ml) in a dose-dependent manner. MPH-P3 was also effective against lipid peroxidation in the model system. The antioxidant activities of MPH-P1, MPH-P2, and MPH-P3 were due to their small sizes and the presence of antioxidant and hydrophobic amino acid residues within their sequences. The results of this study suggested that the protein hydrolysate and/or its isolated peptides might be effectively used as food additives for retarding lipid peroxidation occurring in foodstuffs.
