Descripción

General description

Casein is a major milk phospho-protein and constitutes about 80% of the total protein content in milk. Bovine milk is composed of four types of casein such as, α_S1, α_S2, β, and κ. Casein exists as micelles in milk.

Application

Casein fluorescein isothiocyanate from bovine milk has been used:

• as a substrate for semi-quantitative analysis of protease in Arabidopsis cells
• to determine the caseinolytic activity of secreted LasB (elastase), alkaline protease and protease IV
• for determining the SpeB (cysteine protease) proteolytic activity in Streptococcus pyogenes cells

highly sensitive protease substrate

Biochem/physiol Actions

Casein micelle system is involved in the prevention of pathological calcification of mammary glands.
