General description

Iron-carrying proteins conalbumin and serum transferrin are synthesized with identical 19-amino-acid leader sequences that are removed during protein maturation. The leader sequences are presumably involved in secretion of the proteins by endoplasmic reticulum.

Application

Conalbumin (CA) is a monomeric glycoprotein that makes up approximately 13% of the albumin found in egg white. The iron complex of CA is more stable to chemical and physical treatments when compared to the uncomplexed proteins. At near neutral conditions, urea denaturation of CA modifies but does not destroy the iron complex.

The NH2-terminal sequences of egg white conalbumin and chicken serum transferrin were examined and found to be identical. Conalbumin, when synthesized in a rabbit reticulocyte cell-free translation system, was found to contain an NH2-terminal extension of 19 amino acid residues.

The size and orientation of calcium carbonate crystals influence the structure and strength of the eggshells of chickens. In this study, estimates of heritability were found to be high (0.6) for crystal size and moderate (0.3) for crystal orientation. There

Transferrins are a group of iron-binding proteins including serum transferrin, lactoferrin and ovotransferrin. The structures of transferrins are discussed. The typical transferrin molecules are folded into two homologous lobes. X-ray crystallography revealed that each lobe is further divided into two
