Biological/Functional activity & target protein
Coeliac toxic activity

The peptide QQPYPQ was toxicity to patients with coeliac disease. The tests showed that digestion products from patients coeliac mucoas caused damage to rat liver lysosomes in contrast to digestion products from normal mucosa which had practically no effects on the lysosomes (Mean activity was 37%, means of two results, expressed as % reduction in absorbance compared with zero-time tubes).
