Welcome!
Hello, Heatherlcrespo, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. {| width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="5" style="vertical-align:top;" ! Handouts ! Additional Resources kokumi (k/uˈkuːmi/, Japanese: 濃く味) is translated as "heartiness" or "mouth-fulness" and describes compounds in food that do not have their own taste, but enhance the characteristics when combined. These compounds include calcium, protamine, L-histidine (an amino acid) and glutathione (found in yeast extract).[1]The calcium-sensing receptors (G-protein coupled) on the tongue are triggered by γ-L-glutamyl peptides. These peptides are sensitive to glutathione.[2] First discovered in 1990 by Japanese researchers Yoichi Ueda, Makoto Sakaguchi, Kazuo Hirayama, Ryuichi Miyajima & Akimitsu Kimizuka.[3] Their research concluded that Kokumi was a tasteless flavor enhancer that is made of allicin and suffer-containing compounds.[3,4] The Kokumi response is derived from chemical compounds that include calcium, protamine, glutathione, and L-Histidine and are mostly connected with glutamyl-derived di- and tripeptides, such as the antioxidant glutathione present universally in all living tissues5}The discovery of kokumi peptide compounds can be used to replace harmful additives and reduce sodium content as well as sugar and noxious oils.[5,6] Foods containing this powerful kokumi substance are still being discovered, but include milk, onion, fish milt, yeast extract, shrimp paste, aged cheese, fermented soybeans and even some types of beer.

answering question
Hi --I saw your message on my talk page. How you add your work to Wikipedia depends on whether you're updating/revising an existing article or creating a new article. The majority of students edit existing articles, and it's important that you don't create a new article if it would duplicate an existing article. For more information about adding work to Wikipedia in each circumstance, please view our training here. For additional trainings to answer questions you may have, view the complete training library here. Thanks, Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:46, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
