Ovalbumin
|
Ovalbumin (abbreviated OVA) is the main protein of the white egg. This protein represent approximatively 60% of the total protein. Its exact function is still unknown.Ovalbumin have sequence and three dimentional homology with the serpin superfamily. Serpin are serine protease inhibitor and can have also non inhibitory roles for exemple in hormone carriage proteins like Thyroxine-binding globulin and transcortin or molecular chaperoning (HSP47). Despite many similarities with serpin, Ovalbumin have no inhibitor propertiesn but it is thought to be a storage protein for the developing foetus. In fact storage proteins are a reserve of ion and amino acid which can be used by organisms
