General description

A member of the lipocalin family, βLg is a small protein of 162 amino acids with a molecular mass of ∼18,400 Da, featuring an eight-stranded β-barrel (strands A-H) succeeded by a three-turn a-helix and a final β-strand (strand I) that forms part of the dimerization interface.[1]
Milk from dairy cows contains the protein β-lactoglobulin (BLG). It naturally occurs in a number of genetic variants, and the most prevalent bovine variants are known as BLG A and BLG B.[2]

Application

β-Lactoglobulin A from bovine milk has been used:
  • as a calibrant for the calibration of the TriWave device[3]
  • as a standard in the detection and quantification of β-lactoglobulin in bovine milk by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)[4]
  • in the purification and molecular weight measurement of protease samples[5]

β-Lactoglobulin was used in the identification of the genetic variants of κ-casein in milk by isoelectric focusing electrophoresis.[6]

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Lactoglobulin (β-lg) possesses heat-set gelation properties. It also exhibits antiviral, anticarcinogenic and hypocholesterolemic effects. β-lg can bind to retinol and long-chain fatty acids. It may participate in the absorption and metabolism of fatty acids.[7]

  2. Do you have the amino acid sequence of Product L7880, β-Lactoglobulin A from bovine milk?

    1 answer
    1. Uniprot P02754 describes beta Lactoglobulin.The first 16 amino acids of that sequence are the signal peptide, so the sequence of beta-Lactoglobulin B corresponds to amino acids 17-178.But Product L7880 is beta-Lactoglobulin A. As shown in the details under the first link, this form of the protein varies by two amino acids from beta-Lactoglobulin B:1. Instead of the glycine (G) at position 80 of the B form, the A form has an aspartic acid (D).2. Instead of the alaline (A) at position 134 of the B form, the A form has a valine (V).So to answer your question, the sequence of Product L7880 is:LIVTQTMKGLDIQKVAGTWYSLAMAASDISLLDAQSAPLRVYVEELKPTPEGDLEILLQKWENDECAQKKIIAEKTKIPAVFKIDALNENKVLVLDTDYKKYLLFCMENSAEPEQSLVCQCLVRTPEVDDEALEKFDKALKALPMHIRLSFNPTQLEEQCHI
