Binding of Folic Acid Induces Specific Self-Aggregation of Lactoferrin : Thermodynamic Characterization
In the study presented here, we investigated the interaction at pH 5.5 between folic acid (FA) and lactoferrin (LF), a positively charged protein. We found a binding constant Ka of 10(5) M(-1) and a high stoichiometry of 10 mol of FA/mol of LF. The size and charge of the complexes formed evolved dur...
