Phosvitin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by M.Biotech (talk | contribs) at 09:44, 24 August 2018 (I have included a newly reported application of phosvitin.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Phosvitin is one of the egg (commonly hen’s egg) yolk[1][2] phosphoproteins known for being the most phosphorylated protein found in nature.[3][4][5] Phosvitin isolation was first described by Mecham and Olcott in the year 1949.[3][6] Recently it has been shown that disordered secondary structure of phosvitin orchestrates nucleation and growth of biomimetic bone like apatite[7].
