Towards the design of hypolipidaemic peptides: Deoxycholate binding affinity of hydrophobic peptide aggregates of casein plastein

Plastein is a thixotropic product of protease-induced peptide aggregation. This study evaluated the effects of the modified peptide structure of plastein on its affinity for a secondary bile acid. Casein plastein formation resulted in decreased free amino nitrogen and increased mean particle size, s...
