Isolation and utilization of proteins from seaweeds have been a novel trend in the world at present due to the increasing demand for healthy non-animal proteins. The attention of scientific community has been paid on the protein derived from seaweed  Undaria pinnatifida  due to their high nutritional quality and bioactivity. This article aims to provide an integrated overview on methods of extraction, isolation and purification of  U .  pinnatifida- derived proteins and composition, nutritional value and potential nutraceutical and food applications with an interest to stimulate further research to optimize the utilization. Potential food applications of  U .  pinnatifida  derived proteins are nutritional components in human diet, food ingredients and additives, alternative meat and meat analogues and animal and fish feed. Excellent antioxidant, antihypertension, anticoagulant, anti-diabetes, antimicrobial and anti-cancer activities possessed by proteins of  U .  pinnatifida  enable the use of these proteins in various nutraceutical applications. A number of studies have been carried out on antioxidant and antihypertensive activities of  U .  pinnatifida  proteins, whereas other bioactivites are yet to be further studied. Hence, more research works are crucial to be done in order to facilitate and promote the emerging novel foods and nutraceuticals, using proteins from seaweed  U .  pinnatifida .
