| Summary: | The study of the biological activity of various peptide compounds is a novel research topic, as peptides have extensive applications in a wide range of sectors. Biologically active peptides can be obtained from various sources, including animals, plants, and microorganisms. Plants, on the other hand, have immense promise owing to their diverse chemical structures, each of which has unique characteristics and pharmacological actions. These characteristics set the plant world apart for the development of several drugs and insecticides. Plant-derived peptides perform a wide range of biological functions, including antibacterial, anticancer, antihypertensive, and antioxidant activities. This study shows that Mass spectrometry (MS) is the primary method used to identify proteins and native peptides isolated from tissues and biological fluids. Proteomics and peptidomics are two distinct peptide analysis approaches employed in this context.
