Finding functional preparations that could improve the bioavailability of calcium is one of the keys to solving calcium deficiency. In this study, glycosylated peptides-calcium chelate with calcium absorption promoting activity, named XOS-CSPHs-Ca-MR, was prepared from Crimson Sapper scales protein hydrolysates (CSPHs) and xylooligosaccharides (XOS) via Maillard reaction. Results showed that amino nitrogen, carboxyl oxygen, and carbonyl oxygen atom were the primary calcium chelating sites. Remarkably, XOS-CSPHs-Ca-MR exhibited good calcium phosphate crystallization inhibitory activity, gastrointestinal stability, and could promote calcium transport efficiency in the Caco-2 cell monolayer. In vitro fermentation results showed that XOS-CSPHs-Ca-MR improved the gut microbiota structure of calcium-deficient mice. Its prebiotic effect was achieved by increasing the number of beneficial bacteria, boosting the production of short-chain fatty acids, and improving the colonization ability of microbiota. Therefore, this study could lay a foundation for the study of glycosylated peptide-calcium chelate as a novel calcium supplement with prebiotic effect.
