β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG)is the major whey protein of ruminant species. Its amino-acid sequence and 3-dimensional structure show that it is a lipocalin, a widely diverse family, most of which bind small hydrophobic ligands and thus may act as specific transporters, as does serum retinol binding protein <ref>PMID:15259212</ref>. | β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG)is the major whey protein of ruminant species.
