Edible insect as an alternative protein source: a review on the chemistry and functionalities of proteins under different processing methods

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
The consumption of edible insects can be anadvantageous alternative to the conventional food supply chain, which involves global water waste, land deficit, undernutrition, and starvation. Besides the nutritional aspects, insect proteins have demonstrated

Insect cuticular proteins

Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1995
Insect cuticles are composite structural materials with mechanical properties optimal for their biological functions. The bulk properties of cuticles are to a large extent determined by the interactions between the various components, mainly the chitin filament system and the proteins.

The respiratory proteins of insects

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2007
For a long time, respiratory proteins have been considered unnecessary in most insects because the tracheal system was thought to be sufficient for oxygen supply. Only a few species that survive under hypoxic conditions were known exceptions. However, recently it has become evident that (1) intracellular hemoglobins belong to the standard repertoire of
