Prediction of the conformation of the cow and sheep kappa-caseins.

M H Loucheux-Lefebvre, J P Aubert and P Jollès

ABSTRACT

The secondary structures of cow and sheep kappa-caseins were established according to the predictive rules of Chou and Fasman. The diagrams derived from this treatment allowed us to study the chymosin sensitive bond (milk-clotting process), as well as the glycosylation and phosphorylation sites, found to be situated in beta-turns. Despite a high variability between the primary structures of the COOH-terminal part (caseinoglycopeptide) of cow, sheep, and also other caseins, the secondary structures of the biologically important sites were found to be conserved.
