Abstract

Two recombinant beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) B variants were produced in E. coli. Production/isolation resulted in native BLG without post-translational modifications. Properties of recombinant variants were compared to commercial BLG B and BLG AB. Minor differences in solubility and interface adsorption behavior were evident. Genetically engineered and natural BLGs show similar emulsifying properties.
