| β-Lactoglobulin Usage And Synthesis |
Uses | β-Lactoglobulin was used in a cytologic assay for diagnosis of food hypersensitivity in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. | Uses | β-Lactoglobulin from bovine milk was used to test the allergen-responsive CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells in children who have outgrown cow′s milk allergy. 1 It is also used to test the competitive displacement of β-lactoglobulin by Tween 20 from oil-water and air-water interfaces. | Uses | β-Lactoglobulin from bovine milk was used to test the allergen-responsive CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells in children who have outgrown cow′s milk allergy.

It naturally occurs in a number of genetic variants, and the most prevalent bovine variants are BLG A and BLG B. | Biochem/physiol Actions | A member of the lipocalin family, βLg is a small protein of 162 amino acids with a molecular mass of ~18,400 Da. It features 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. |
