Breunig S, Crooijmans RPMA, Bovenhuis H, Hettinga K, Bijl E. Linking variation in the casein fraction and salt composition to casein micelle size in milk of Dutch dairy goats.

Abstract
The casein (CN) composition, salt composition and micelle size varies largely between milk samples of individual animals. In goats, the link between those casein characteristics are unknown and could provide useful insights into goat casein micelle structure. In this study, the casein- and salt composition of 42 individual Dutch goats from 17 farms was studied and linked to casein micelle size. Micelle size, proportions of individual caseins, and protein content were associated with each other. Milk with smaller casein micelles was higher in protein content, salt content, and proportion of αs1-CN, but lower in αs2-CN and β-CN. The higher salt content in milk with small casein micelles was mainly attributed to a higher protein content, but changes in casein composition might additionally contribute to differences in mineralization. The non-sedimentable casein content in goat milk correlated with non-sedimentable fractions of β-CN and κ-CN and was independent of micelle size. Between large and small casein micelles, goat casein micelles showed more differences in casein and salt composition than bovine micelles, indicating differences in internal structure. Nevertheless, the casein mineralization in goat milk was similar to casein mineralization in bovine milk, indicating that mineralization of casein micelles follows a general principle. These results can help to better understand how composition and micelle structure in goat milk are related to each other, which may be useful to improve processing and product properties of goat milk in the future.

Abstract
Milk is a rich source of biologically important proteins and peptides. In addition, milk contains a variety of extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, that carry their own proteome cargo. EVs are essential for cell-cell communication and modulation of biological processes. They act as nature carriers of bioactive proteins/peptides in targeted delivery during various physiological and pathological conditions. Identification of the proteins and protein-derived peptides in milk and EVs and recognition of their biological activities and functions had a tremendous impact on food industry, medicine research, and clinical applications. Advanced separation methods, mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomic approaches and innovative biostatistical procedures allowed for characterization of milk protein isoforms, genetic/splice variants, posttranslational modifications and their key roles, and contributed to novel discoveries. This review article discusses recently published developments in separation and identification of bioactive proteins/peptides from milk and milk EVs, including MS-based proteomic approaches.

J Proteomics 2023; 285:104951. [PMID: 37321301 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2023.104951] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 05/30/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Spontaneous milk lipolysis refers to the breakdown of triacylglycerols in milk. Lipolysis impacts the organoleptic value of milk by causing off-flavours and reduces the technological properties of milk. Lipolysis is caused by lipoprotein lipase (LPL), a tightly regulated enzyme in milk. Our objective was to identify robust biomarkers of lipolysis and putative regulators of LPL enzyme in bovine milk. To achieve this goal, we used feed restriction as a lever to generate highly contrasted samples with regard to milk lipolysis. We combined statistical methods on proteomics data, milk lipolysis and LPL activity values. Following this strategy, we identified CD5L and GP2 as robust biomarkers of high lipolysis in cow milk. We also identified HID1, SURF4 and CUL9 as putative inhibitors of the lipolytic process in the milk. We thus proposed 5 putative biomarkers to be considered in future tools to manage milk lipolysis. SIGNIFICANCE: This manuscript is notable in three aspects. First, this is the first evaluation of the milk proteome relative to milk lipolysis or LPL activity. Second, the relationship between the abundance of proteins and milk traits was evaluated by a combination of univariate and multivariate analyses. Third, we provide a short list of five proteins to be tested in a larger population to feed the pipeline of biomarker discovery.

Abstract
The growing consumer awareness towards healthy and safe food has reformed food processing strategies. Nowadays, food processors are aiming at natural, effective, safe, and low-cost substitutes for enhancing the shelf life of food products. Milk, besides being a rich source of nutrition for infants and adults, serves as a readily available source of precious functional peptides. Due to the existence of high genetic variability in milk proteins, there is a great possibility to get bioactive peptides with varied properties. Among other bioactive agents, milk-originated antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are gaining interest as attractive and safe additive conferring extended shelf life to minimally processed foods. These peptides display broad-spectrum antagonistic activity against bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoans. Microbial proteolytic activity, extracellular peptidases, food-grade enzymes, and recombinant DNA technology application are among few strategies to tailor specific peptides from milk and enhance their production. These bioprotective agents have a promising future in addressing the global concern of food safety along with the possibility to be incorporated into the food matrix without compromising overall consumer acceptance. Additionally, in conformity to the current consumer demands, these AMPs also possess functional properties needed for value addition. This review attempts to present the basic properties, synthesis approaches, action mechanism, current status, and prospects of antimicrobial peptide application in food, dairy, and pharma industry along with their role in ensuring the safety and health of consumers.

Abstract
Milk proteins determine important milk technological characteristics. Among caseins, Ƙ-casein has been correlated with fat and protein content and cheese yield. Fourteen Ƙ-caseins variants have been described but the alleles A, B and E are the most important ones due to their frequency and/or influence on the technological aptitudes of milk. Therefore, in the present study two different duplex qPCR assays with locked nucleic acid probes (for positions 13104 and 13124 of the Ƙ-casein gene) were developed for the detection of A, B and E variants. Firstly, DNA isolation method from milk somatic cells and hair was optimised. The developed 13124-qPCR assay showed an increased sensitivity reaching up to 6.7 copies DNA copies/reaction at a 95% confidence level with A, B and E alleles reference samples. The 13104-qPCR assay reached up to 6.7 DNA copies/reaction for A allele reference sample and 67 DNA copies/reaction for B and E samples. Intra-assay variation results were below 6%. Applicability was determined using DNA samples from animals with known genotype for Ƙ-casein (AA, AB, BB, BE, AE, EE) and both assays were able to discriminate among the six genotypes with 100% accuracy. Thus, this qPCR method represents a sensitive and rapid option for the detection of Ƙ-casein alleles in both hair and milk samples.

Abstract
The impact of amino acid mutations within the peptide structure of bovine milk protein is important to understand as it can effect processability and subsequently effect its physiological properties. Genetic polymorphisms of bovine caseins can influence the chemical, structural, and technological properties, including casein micelle morphology, calcium distribution, network creation upon gelation, and surface activity. The A1 and A2 genetic variants of β-casein have recently acquired growing attention from both academia and industry, prompting new developments in the area. The difference between these two genetic variants is the inclusion of either proline in β-casein A2 or histidine in β-casein A1 at position 67 in the peptide chain. The aim of this review was to examine the extent to which milk and ingredient functionality is influenced by β-casein phenotype. One of the main findings of this review was although β-casein A1 was found to be the dominant variant in milks with superior acid gelation and rennet coagulation properties, milks comprised of β-casein A2 possessed greater emulsion and foam formation capabilities. The difference in the casein micelle assembly, hydrophobicity, and chaperone activity of caseins may explain the contrast in the functionality of milks containing β-casein from either A1 or A2 families. This review provides new insights into the subtle variations in the physicochemical properties of bovine milks, which could potentially support dairy producers in the development of new dairy products with different functional properties. Impact of β- and other caseins on the casein micelle structure and functionality. Proline and histidine in β-caseins play a key role in casein micelle conformation. Chaperone activity of β-casein A2 towards heat-induced aggregation of whey protein. Gels prepared of milks with β-casein A1 possess a denser and firmer structure. Ordered structure of β-casein A2 led to improved emulsion and foam formation.

Abstract
Variations in the phosphorylation and glycosylation patterns of the common κ-casein (CN) variants A and B have been explored, whereas studies on variant E heterogeneity are scarce. This study reports for the first time the detailed phosphorylation and glycosylation pattern of the κ-CN variant E in comparison with variants A and B. Individual cow milk samples representing κ-CN genotype EE (n = 12) were obtained from Swedish Red cows, and the natural posttranslational modifications of its κ-CN were identified and quantified by liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry. In total, 12 unique isoform masses of κ-CN variant E were identified. In comparison, AA and BB milk consisted of 14 and 17 unique isoform masses, respectively. The most abundant κ-CN E isoform detected in the EE milk was the monophosphorylated, unglycosylated [1P 0G, ∼70%; where P indicates phosphorylation from single to triple phosphorylation (1-3P), and G indicates glycosylation from single to triple glycosylation (1-3G)] form, followed by diphosphorylated, unglycosylated (2P 0G, ∼12%) form, resembling known patterns from variants A and B. However, a clear distinction was the presence of the rare triphosphorylated, nonglycosylated (3P 0G, ∼0.05%) κ-CN isoform in the EE milk. All isoforms detected in variant E were phosphorylated, giving a phosphorylation degree of 100%. This is comparable with the phosphorylation degree of variants A and B, being also almost 100%, though with very small amounts of nonphosphorylated, glycosylated isoforms detected. The glycosylation degree of variant E was found to be around 17%, a bit higher than observed for variant B (around 14%), and higher than variant A (around 7%). Among glycosylation, the glycan e was the most common type identified for all 3 variants, followed by c/d (straight and branched chain trisaccharides, respectively), and b. In contrast to κ-CN variants A and B, no glycan of type a was found in variant E. Taken together, this study shows that the posttranslational modification pattern of variant E resembles that of known variants to a large extent, but with subtle differences.

Abstract
Recombinant bovine growth hormone (rbGH) is produced in large quantities and widely used in a number of countries worldwide to stimulate milk production in dairy animals. The use of this compound in animal production is strictly regulated by food safety directives in force, in particular in the European Union (EU). Although analytical strategies for the detection of rbGH in blood have been successfully reported over the past 15 years, they do not fully answer the expectations of either competent authorities or industrials that would expect measuring its occurrence directly in the milk. As a matrix of excretion but also of consumption, milk appears indeed as the matrix of choice for detecting the use of rbGH in dairy animals. It also allows large volumes to be collected without presenting an invasive character for the animal. However, rbGH detection in milk presents several challenges, mainly related to the sensitivity required for its detection in a complex biological matrix. This review article presents the specific difficulties associated with milk and provides an overview of the analytical strategies reported in the literature and whether they concern indirect or direct approaches to the detection of rbGH administration to animals, with applications either for screening or confirmation purposes.

Naturally Occurring Glycosidases in Milk from Native Cattle Breeds: Activity and Consequences on Free and Protein Bound-Glycans. Metabolites 2021; 11:metabo11100662.

Abstract
Little is known about the extent of variation and activity of naturally occurring milk glycosidases and their potential to degrade milk glycans. A multi-omics approach was used to investigate the relationship between glycosidases and important bioactive compounds such as free oligosaccharides and O-linked glycans in bovine milk. Using 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) assays activities of eight indigenous glycosidases were determined, and by mass spectrometry and 1H NMR spectroscopy various substrates and metabolite products were quantified in a subset of milk samples from eight native North European cattle breeds. The results showed a clear variation in glycosidase activities among the native breeds. Interestingly, negative correlations between some glycosidases including β-galactosidase, N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase, certain oligosaccharide isomers as well as O-linked glycans of κ-casein were revealed. Further, a positive correlation was found for free fucose content and α-fucosidase activity (r = 0.37, p-value < 0.001) indicating cleavage of fucosylated glycans in milk at room temperature. The results obtained suggest that milk glycosidases might partially degrade valuable glycans, which would result in lower recovery of glycans and thus represent a loss for the dairy ingredients industry if these activities are pronounced.

Abstract
Caseins (αS1, αS2, β and κ) are the main protein fraction of bovine milk. Together with nanoclusters of amorphous calcium phosphate (CaP) and divalent cations, they combine to form a polydisperse distribution of particles called casein micelles. A casein micelle model is proposed which is consistent with the way in which intrinsically disordered proteins interact through predominantly polar, short, linear, motifs. Using the model, an expression is derived for the size distribution of casein micelles formed when caseins bind to the CaP nanoclusters and the complexes further associate with each other and the remaining mixture of free caseins. The result is a refined coat-core model in which the core is formed mainly by the nanocluster complexes and the coat is formed exclusively by the free caseins. Example calculations of the size distribution and surface composition of an average bovine milk are compared with experiment. The average size, size distribution and surface composition of the micelles is shown to depend on the affinity of the nanocluster complexes for each other in competition with their affinity for free caseins, and on the concentrations of free caseins, calcium ions and other salts in the continuous phase.

Abstract
Liquid milk protein concentrate with different beneficial values was prepared by membrane filtration and enzymatic modification of proteins in a sequential way. In the first step, milk protein concentrate was produced from ultra-heat-treated skimmed milk by removing milk serum as permeate. A tubular ceramic-made membrane with filtration area 5 × 10−3 m2 and pore size 5 nm, placed in a cross-flow membrane house, was adopted. Superior operational strategy in filtration process was herein: trans-membrane pressure 3 bar, retention flow rate 100 L·h−1, and implementation of a static turbulence promoter within the tubular membrane. Milk with concentrated proteins from retentate side was treated with the different concentrations of trypsin, ranging from 0.008–0.064 g·L−1 in individual batch-mode operations at temperature 40 °C for 10 min. Subsequently, inactivation of trypsin in reaction was done at a temperature of 70 °C for 30 min of incubation. Antioxidant capacity in enzyme-treated liquid milk protein concentrate was measured with the Ferric reducing ability of plasma assay. The reduction of angiotensin converting enzyme activity by enzyme-treated liquid milk protein concentrate was measured with substrate (Abz-FRK(Dnp)-P) and recombinant angiotensin converting enzyme. The antibacterial activity of enzyme-treated liquid milk protein concentrate towards Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus was tested. Antioxidant capacity, anti-angiotensin converting enzyme activity, and antibacterial activity were increased with the increase of trypsin concentration in proteolytic reaction. Immune-reactive proteins in enzyme-treated liquid milk protein concentrate were identified with clinically proved milk positive pooled human serum and peroxidase-labelled anti-human Immunoglobulin E. The reduction of allergenicity in milk protein concentrate was enzyme dose-dependent.
