Plasteins were synthesized from a peptic filefish protein hydrolysate by papain, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease(from Streptomyces griceus) under the optimum conditions of previous paper. L-glutamic acid diethylester and L-leucine ethylester were incorporated into plastein during the plastein reaction by papain. The structural changes of freeze-dried filefish meat, peptic hydrolysate, FPC and plasteins were observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM). The functional properties of plasteins also were measured. The solubility of plasteins was higher than that of FPC and the Glu-plastein had $95\%$ solubility in the range of pH 3-10. The dispersibility of Glu-plastein and protease plastein was similar to that of egg albumin, but those of the other plasteins were lower. The water holding capacity of plasteins was lower than that of egg albumin and C. Lipid absorption of Leu-plastein was tile highest, holding 1.80 ml/g, and that of the other plasteins was similar to that of egg albumin. The emulsifying activity of Leu-plastein was the highest, holding $61.2\%$, and that of Glu-plastein was the lowest, holding $50.7\%$. The emulsifying stability of plasteins was similar to that of the emulsifying activity. The emulsifying capacity of Leu-plastein was 384 ml/g(the highest), but that of Glu-plastein and $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ plastein was 248 ml/g(the lowest). The Leu-plastein shelved the highest foaming capacity, $373\%$. The foaming capacity of other plasteins was higher than that of egg albumin. The foaming stability of plasteins was superior to that of egg albumin. The viscosity of plasteins was lower than that of egg albumin. The microstructure of $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ plastein by SEM wassimilar to that of papain plastein, but other plasteins showed differences in their microstructure. The microstructure of Glu-plastein had a smooth shape.

Optimum conditions for hydrolysis of sunflower seed by pepsin and for plastein formation by pepsin were determined. The optimum conditions for hydrolysis of sunflower seed were pH 1.5, $45^{\circ}C$, enzyme concentration 2%, substrate concentration 2%, and hydrolysis time 24hr. The optimum conditions for sunflower seed-plastein formation were 50% substrate, pH 4.5, $50^{\circ}C$, 0.25% pepsin and 18hrs reaction time. To verify plastein fromation from concentrated prptic hydrolysate of sunflower seed, thin layer chromatography was performed. The TLC pattern of concentrated peptic hydrolysate of sunflower seed was different from that of its plastein. The TLC pattern of concentrated peptic bydrolysate of sunflower seed and at of its plastein indicated that plastein was different material from the hydrolysate.

Conditions necessary for optimal plastein productivity from sardine protein hydrolysate using papain and pepsin were established. Sardine protein concentrate was hydrolyzed with pepsin yielding an approximate degree of hydrolysis of 77.2%. Enzyme induced plastein was optimized at: pH 6 for papain and pH 4 for pepsin; substrate concentrate, 50%(w/v) for papain and 40%(w/v) for pepsin; time of incubation, 24hr; enzyme/substrate ratio, 1 : 100(w/w). Plastein yields of 49.5% and 45.3% were found for papain and pepsin, respectively, when 10% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) was used as the precipitating agent. However, when plastein was precipitated by 50% ethanol, the yield was found to be 43.6% and 41.0% for papain and pepsin, respectively. Ethanol-precipitated plastein did not contain lipid and contained approximately 1.3% ash and 91.0% protein. In comparison, the TCA-precipitated plastein contained 74.2% protein, 0.5% lipid and 15.3% ash.

Pepsin-catalyzed hydrolysis and plastein reaction were carried out to prepare plastein product from soymilk residue protein. Conditions required for optimal hydrolysis of soymilk residue protein and subsequent plastein production were investigated. The optimum substrate concentration, enzyme-substrate ratio, pH, reaction temperature and incubation time for hydrolysis were 3%, 1/50, 1.7, $45^{\circ}C$ and 24 hours, respectively. Plastein formation from peptic hydrolysate of soymilk residue protein was most effective at substrate concentratin of 40%, pH 4 and $45^{\circ}C$. Reaction time of 18 hours and enzyme-substrate ratio of 1/100 were selected for plastein production. Electrophoresis of the products revealed that protein-like substances of high molecular weight were produced from the plastein reaction.

In order to enhance the processing quality and utility of alaska-pollack meat, the optimum conditions for the preparation of pronase hydrolysate and the synthesis of plastein were investigated. The optimum temperature and pH for the hydrolysis of alaska-pollack by pronase were $40^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0. The reaction time and enzyme concentration were 4 hr and 1,000 units per g of substrate. Under the above optimum conditions alaska-pollack was hydrolyzed by pronase yielding a hydrolytic degree of about 89%. Pronase hydrolysate was employed as substrate for plastein synthesis. The 30% pronase hydrolysates were adjusted to pH 7 for fruit-bromelain and pH 5 for stem-bromelain, and then plastein were synthesized by 1% bromelain at $40^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr. The plasteins synthesized by fruit- and stem-bromelain were consisted of peptides having average peptide length of 22.6 and 20.8 under the optimum synthetic conditions. The plastein synthesis reaction reduced considerably the bitterness of pronase hydrolysate.

In order to exploit a new type of food source, enzamatically modified hydrolysates and the plasteins synthesized from the filefish (Nevoden modestus) protein hydrolysates by plastein reaction were investigated. The optimum conditions for enzymatic hydrolysis of filefish muscle and synthesis of plasteins using papain, pepsin, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease (from Streptomyces griceus) were determined. The optimum temperature and pH for the hydrolysis of filefish muscle by papain, pepsin, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease were $50^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C,\;55^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$; and 6, 2, 7 and 8, respectively. Those for incubation time and enzyme concentration were 4hr, $0.5\%$ for papain and protease, 24hrs $1.0\%$ for pepsin and $\alpha-chymotrypsin$. The pepsin was found to be more reasonable substrate for plastein synthesis from the economic point of view. The enzyme-induced plastein reaction could be optimized, namely, pH 4 for pepsin, pH 7 for $\alpha-chymotrypsin$, pH 6 for papain and protease: substrate concentration $40\%$ for pepsin, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease, $50\%$ for papain; the time of incubation, 24hr; enzyme/substrate ratio, 1 : 100(W/V) ; incubation temperature, $50^{\circ}C$.
