Characterization of structural features of food molten‐globule state proteins: An overview
Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.Abstract During food processing, pH, ionic strength, and temperature drive conformational transitions from native states to partially folded intermediates and fully unfolded states. The molten‐globule (MG) state typically preserves substantial secondary structure but has relaxed tertiary packing, thereby modulating protein solubility, emulsifying ...

Retinol-Binding Protein 4 in Human Obesity [PDF]
Diabetes, 2006 Studies in mice suggest that adipocytes serve as glucose sensors and regulate systemic glucose metabolism through release of serum retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4). This model has not been validated in humans. RBP4 was highly expressed in isolated mature human adipocytes and secreted by differentiating human adipocytes.
