Disorder in Milk Proteins: Formation, Structure, Function, Isolation and Applications of Casein Phosphopeptides.

abstract：:Cell viability depends on the correct folding of the proteins involved in metabolism. Proteins are synthesized on the endoplasmic reticulum and must follow a pathway to a correct, metastable, tridimensional structure. Changes in structure or in environmental conditions can drive an instability of the folding condition...
