pH-Dependent aggregation and disaggregation of native β-lactoglobulin in low salt

The aggregation of β-lactoglobulin (BLG) near its isoelectric point was studied as a function of ionic strength and pH. We compared the behavior of native BLG with those of its two isoforms, BLG-A and BLG-B, and with that of a protein with a very similar pI, bovine serum albumin (BSA). Rates of aggr...

520 |a The aggregation of β-lactoglobulin (BLG) near its isoelectric point was studied as a function of ionic strength and pH. We compared the behavior of native BLG with those of its two isoforms, BLG-A and BLG-B, and with that of a protein with a very similar pI, bovine serum albumin (BSA). Rates of aggregation were obtained through a highly precise and convenient pH/turbidimetric titration that measures transmittance to ±0.05 %T. A comparison of BLG and BSA suggests that the difference between pHmax (the pH of the maximum aggregation rate) and pI is systematically related to the nature of protein charge asymmetry, as further supported by the effect of localized charge density on the dramatically different aggregation rates of the two BLG isoforms. Kinetic measurements including very short time periods show well-differentiated first and second steps. BLG was analyzed by light scattering under conditions corresponding to maxima in the first and second steps. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) was used to monitor the kinetics, and static light scattering (SLS) was used to evaluate the aggregate structure fractal dimensions at different quench points. The rate of the first step is relatively symmetrical around pHmax and is attributed to the local charges within the negative domain of the free protein. In contrast, the remarkably linear pH dependence of the second step is related to the uniform reduction in global protein charge with increasing pH below pI, accompanied by an attractive force due to surface charge fluctuations
