Interaction of Methylglyoxal with alpha-lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin and alpha S casein – A Comparative Study.

Study of the Interaction of Cinnamaldehyde with Alpha-lactalbumin: Spectroscopic and Molecular Docking Investigation

Cinnamaldehyde is an important compound of the cinnamon essential oil, and it is responsible for the most of the health benefits of cinnamon. Enriching foods such as milk with cinnamaldehyde can lead to greater utilization of cinnamaldehyde properties. In this study, we investigated the interaction of cinnamaldehyde with bovine alpha-lactalbumin. Analyzing the spectrum of alpha-lactalbumin in t...

Differential Expression of Alpha S1 Casein and Beta-Lactoglobulin Genes at Different Physiological stages of the Adani Goats Mammary Glands

Background: Milk proteins genes have been the focus of the researches as the candidate target genes that play a decisive role when animal breeding is desired.Objectives: In the present study, the transcriptional levels of Beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) and Alpha S1 casein (CSN1S1) genes were investigated during prenatal, milking and drying times in mammary glands of the Adani goats which showed...

Structural consequences of dry heating on alpha-lactalbumin and beta-lactoglobulin at pH 6.5

Transport of beta-lactoglobulin and alpha-lactalbumin in enterocyte-like Caco-2 cells.

The transport of [14C]-radiolabelled beta-lactoglobulin and alpha-lactalbumin through Caco-2 cell monolayers grown on permeable filters was studied in order to evaluate the different protein pathways through the intestinal epithelium. beta-Lactoglobulin or alpha-lactalbumin (0.25-3 mg/ml) was introduced on the apical side of the monolayer and both the transport and the release of labelled mater...

تخلیص و بررسی فعالیت پروتئولیتیکی آنزیم فیسین انجیر (فیکوس کاریکا )

Introduction & Objective: Ficin is a member of plant cystein proteases that is abundant in fig. This enzyme has many pharmacological and industrial uses. In the present study, the enzyme was purified by a simple procedure and its proteolytic activity was assayed on several plant and animal proteins. Materials & Methods: Ficin was extracted from unripe fig, precipitated by ammonium sulfate and...
