General description

α-Lactalbumin is a small, globular, whey protein that has been found in all milk studied to date. It is a metalloprotein of approximately 14 kDa produced in the mammary glands.

Application

α-Lactalbumin was used in a cytologic assay for diagnosis of food hypersensitivity in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.
Lactalbumin has also been used in rearing anopheline mosquitoes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

α-Lactalbumin consists of a single polypeptide chain with 8 cysteines which form disulfide bridges. α-Lactalbumin binds several metal ions, including calcium, which is thought to play a role in the regeneration of native α-lactalbumin from the reduced, denatured form. α-Lactalbumin also has a distinct zinc binding site that is thought to play a role in the binding of the lactose synthase complex. The mature protein consists of 123 amino acid residues (14 kDa), and it has a three-dimensional structure with 1.7 Angstrom resolution, demonstrating four a-helices and a triple stranded antiparallel β-sheet.

HAMLET is a complex of oleic acids and decalcified α-lactalbumin that was discovered to selectively kill tumor cells both in vitro and in vivo. Autophagy is an important cellular process involved in drug-induced cell death of glioma cells. We treated

HAMLET (Human Alpha-lactalbumin Made LEthal to Tumor cells) is the first member in a new family of protein-lipid complexes with broad tumoricidal activity. Elucidating the molecular structure and the domains crucial for HAMLET formation is fundamental for understanding its tumoricidal

Ion channels and ion fluxes control many aspects of tissue homeostasis. During oncogenic transformation, critical ion channel functions may be perturbed but conserved tumor specific ion fluxes remain to be defined. Here we used the tumoricidal protein-lipid complex HAMLET as

The thermal stability of two homologous proteins, lysozyme and α-lactalbumin, was examined by circular dichroism. The present study clearly showed two different aspects between the homologous proteins: (1) the original helices of lysozyme and α-lactalbumin were unchanged at heat treatments

Upon controlled UV illumination, disulfide bonds in bovine α-lactalbumin (BLA) are selectively broken, leading to self-assembly of the BLA and doxorubicin (DOX) molecules into nanoparticles via hydrophobic interactions and intermolecular disulfide bonds. Such protein-drug nanoparticles have synergistic anticancer activity in
