Herein, we investigated the effects of ultrasound microwave (UM)-assisted hydrolysis using Alcalase (ALC), Flavourzyme (FLA), and their combination (ALC + FLA), on the production of sweet potato protein hydrolysates (SPPH). UM-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis significantly increased the degree of hydrolysis of SPPH compared with untreated (UN) samples. Fractions with differences in molecular weight (MW) of >10, 3-10, and < 3 kDa in SPPH from UM-assisted ALC, FLA, and ALC + FLA hydrolysis displayed higher antioxidant activities than those from UN samples. MW < 3 kDa fractions of SPPH from UM-assisted ALC and ALC + FLA hydrolysis treatments presented much stronger Fe2+-chelating activity (98.48% and 98.59%), ·OH scavenging activity (67.11% and 60.06%), and higher ORAC values (110.32 and 106.32 µg TE/mL), from which diverse peptides with potential antioxidant activities were obtained by semi-preparative HPLC and LC-MS/MS. All identified peptide sequences exhibited at least three potential antioxidant amino acids. Additionally, changes in peptide conformational structure and antioxidant amino acid composition were revealed by structure-activity relationship analysis. Thus, ultrasound microwave treatment has great potential in antioxidant peptides production.
