Characterisation of African elephant beta casein and its relevance to the chemistry of caseins and casein micelles
2018-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Caseins in milk exist as casein micelles, the structure of which is unclear. The combination of all four casein types, together with calcium phosphate clusters, are believed to be important for the stabilisation of casein micelle structure. In African elephant milk, only two major caseins, β- and κ-casein, have been identified, with β-casein forming the greater part, similar to human milk. African elephant β-casei...
