Effects of surface passivation on gliding motility assays. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
In this study, we report differences in the observed gliding speed of microtubules dependent on the choice of bovine casein used as a surface passivator. We observed differences in both speed and support of microtubules in each of the assays.

Comparative analysis on the structural features of the 5' flanking region of κ-casein genes from six different species [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2002
κ-casein plays an essential role in the formation, stabilisation and aggregation of milk micelles. Control of κ-casein expression reflects this essential role, although an understanding of the mechanisms involved lags behind that of the other milk ...

Comparative analysis of κ-casein expressions and dairy herd improvement indices in Chinese Holstein cows of diverse κ-casein genotypes and transcripts

open access: yesVeterinary and Animal Science
κ-casein (κ-CN, CSN3) variants affect milk composition, processing, milk protein content and milk yield. Whether the CSN3 mutation affects the expression of its own genes, which in turn affects the casein content and milk production, is unknown.

Characterization of the Glycans of Equine κ‑Casein

open access: yes, 2023
To study the protein-bound glycans of equine κ-casein, equine sodium caseinate was first obtained from raw mare’s milk by acid precipitation and then fractionated by cation-exchange chromatography.

Association of casein micelle size and enzymatic curd strength and dry matter curd yield

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2019
: The aim of the present study was to explore the association between milk protein content and casein micelle size and to examine the effects of casein micelle size on enzymatic curd strength and dry matter curd yield using reduced laboratory-scale ...

Tunable mixed micellization of β-casein in the presence of κ-casein

open access: yes, 2021
Casein-casein interactions can be very useful for tuning structural and physical properties of mixed casein micelles for food and biotechnology applications, particularly in the dairy industry. The present work focuses on the structures of mixed micelles

The effect of milk constituents and crowding agents on amyloid fibril formation by κ-casein

open access: yes, 2016
When not incorporated into the casein micelle, κ-casein, a major milk protein, rapidly forms amyloid fibrils at physiological pH and temperature. In this study, the effects of milk components (calcium, lactose, lipids, and heparan sulfate) and crowding ...

In Silico Analysis of Individual Fractions of Bovine Casein as Precursors of Bioactive Peptides—Influence of Post-Translational Modifications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Bovine casein is one of the most known precursors of bioactive peptides among food proteins. Thus far, in silico investigations addressing casein have taken no account of the impact of modifications of amino acid residues on the feasibility of bioactive ...

The Influence of High Heat Treatment at Alkaline pH on the Physicochemical Characteristics and Isomerization of Lactose to Lactulose in Skim Milk [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Food and Dairy Sciences, 2023
The pH of the skim milk was modified, first increased from 6.5 to 7.5, then subjected to high heat treatment at 95°C for 2 min or left unheated for 1 hour. Subsequently, the pH was adjusted back to 6.5, and the samples were analyzed. The concentration of

Polymorphism of three milk protein genes in Mexican Jersey cattle

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2015
The objective was to estimate the allelic and genotypic frequencies, genetic diversity and polymorphic information content for the β-casein, κ-casein and β-lactoglobulin genes.
