The role of β-lactalbumin in the primary phase of chymosin action on heated casein micelles

Abstract
How the primary phase of chymosin (EC 3.4.23.4) action is affected by heating casein micelles in the presence of .alpha.-lactalbumin was studied to examine the possibility that .alpha.-lactalbumin is involved in complex formation with .kappa.-casein when milk is heated.
