Antidiabetic potential of a peptide isolated from an endophytic<i>Aspergillus awamori</i>

Abstract

The inhibitor obtained in this study possesses dual (alpha glucosidase and alpha amylase) inhibitory activity, low IC50 values, is highly stable under extreme conditions of pH and temperature, and is nonmutagenic in nature. By virtue of its properties it can be commercially produced and exploited for better management of diabetes.
