Abstract excerpt
Monellin is a sweet protein that may be used as a safe and healthy sweetener. However, due to its low stability, the application of monellin is currently very limited. Here, we describe a wild-type, a double-sites mutant (E2N/E23A) and a triple-sites mutant (N14A/E23Q/S76Y) of single-chain monellin (MNEI) expressed in transgenic mice milk. Based on enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA), Western blot, and sweetness...
