In ideal proteins, only native interactions are stabilized step-by-step in a smooth funnel-like energy landscape. In real proteins, however, the transient formation of non-native structures is frequently observed. In this review, the transient formation of non-native structures is described using the non-native helix formation during the folding of β-lactoglobulin as a prominent example. Althou...

?-lactoglobulin and its thermolysin-derived hydrolysates were compared regarding the potential for microencapsulating of flavonoids from yellow onion skins. Antioxidant activity powders was ...

Camel (Camelus dromedarius) whey proteins were detected and compared to bovine whey proteins using size exclusion chromatography columns on HPLC. Camel whey proteins such as serum albumin and a-lactalbumin appear to possess molecular weights similar to the respective bovine whey proteins. Camel whey lacks b-lactoglobulin and consists of large amount of serum albumin, compared to bovine whey. Ca...

We perform Atomic Force Microscopy and numerical simulations of a bimodal solution containing long, semiflexible β-lactoglobulin fibrils and short, flexible β-lactoglobulin linear aggregates at an air-water interface. Short aggregates orient perpendicular to fibrils at very short distances and preferentially parallel at intermediate distances. At even larger distances an isotropic distribution ...

the genotypes for beta-lactoglobulin (blg) and calpastatin (cast) were determined by polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and restriction enzyme digestion and genotyped for calpain (capn) by pcr-sscp method in a native iranian breed sheep, kordi. blood samples were collected from 100 pure bred kordi sheep from kordi breeding station located in shirvan, mashhad. the extraction of genomic dna was base...

We introduce a green and efficient approach for removing per- polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) based on the ?-lactoglobulin amyloid fibril membrane.
