Identification of a new molecular form of human α-lactalbumin
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 June 2009
Extract
α-Lactalbumin (α-La) is a protein found in the milk of all mammalian species and is involved in lactose biosynthesis in association with galactosyltransferase (Brodbeck et al. 1967). The primary structure of α-La from several species such as bovine (Brew et al. 1970), human (Findlay & Brew, 1972), and goat (McGillivray et al. 1979) has been determined. Hall et al. (1982) have established the nucleotide sequence and the organization of the human α-La gene (Hall et al. 1987).
