Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to monitor changes in the secondary structure and thermal stability of beta-lactoglobulin A and B in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), urea and cysteine. An increase in the thermal stabilities of both proteins was noted in the presence of 10 mM-SDS. In the pr...

Preparations of arachidonic acid binding and non-binding proteins from bovine brain, four acidic proteins ("-casein, phosvitin, $-lactoglobulin A and B), the peptide polyglutamate, and two polyanions (heparin, dextran sulfate) enhanced both basal and glucose 6-phosphate induced solubilization of rat brain mitochondrial hexokinase (ATP:D-hexose 6-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.1). In contrast, thr...
