Also: beta-casein(114-119). The bioactive peptide with the sequence YPVEPF is being referred to also as beta-neocasomorphin-6 or neocasomorphin-6.
The peptide is released from bovine casein-beta by treatment with gastrointestinal proteases (trypsin, or pepsin and chymotrpysin) and has been shown to be a peptide with opioid activity, behaving as an agonist for opioid receptors (Brantl et al, 1979; Jinsmaa and Yoshikawa, 1999). See also: exorphins. See also cryptides for bioactive fragments of parent proteins.
