The biological activity and techno-functional properties of phenolic compounds have gained
great importance due to the epidemiologically-proved health benefits. Use of polyphenols as …

β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG) is the major whey protein of ruminant species and is also present in
the milks of many, but not all, other species. Its amino-acid sequence and 3-dimensional …

The first adverse reactions to cow's milk were already described 2000 years ago. However, it
was only 50 years ago that several groups started with the analysis of cow's milk allergens …

The lipocalin family became established shortly after the structural similarity was noted
between plasma retinol binding protein and the bovine milk protein, β-lactoglobulin. During …

Depending on solution conditions, β-lactoglobulin can exist in one of its six pH-dependent
structural states. We have characterized the acid and basic-induced conformational …

We have used NMR spectroscopy to determine the three-dimensional (3D) structure, and to
characterize the backbone dynamics, of a recombinant version of bovine β-lactoglobulin …

β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG) is one of the cow's major milk proteins and the most abundant whey
protein. This globular protein of about 18 kDa is folded, forming a β-barrel (or calyx) …

The major protein in bovine milk whey, β-lactoglobulin (β-LG), has several binding sites for
ligands. Its interactions with folic acid (a hydrophilic compound), resveratrol (amphiphilic) …

The chemical and physical stabilities of the more common proteins of bovine and, where
available, ovine, caprine, and equine whey (β-lactoglobulin, α-lactalbumin, serum albumin …

Using heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy, we studied the solution structure and dynamics of
bovine β-lactoglobulin A at pH 2.0 and 45° C, where the protein exists as a monomeric …
