Relationship between Protein Digestibility and the Proteolysis of Legume Proteins during Seed Germination
Legume seed protein is an important source of nutrition, but generally it is less digestible than animal protein. Poor protein digestibility in legume seeds and seedlings may partly reflect defenses against herbivores. Protein changes during germination typically increase proteolysis and digestibili...
