Structure, Stability, and Calcium Transport Mechanism of a Novel Duck Plasma Peptide-Calcium Chelate (LHDVK-Ca)
This study constructed a peptide-calcium chelate (LHDVK-Ca) using the duck plasma-derived pentapeptide LHDVK to investigate its binding mechanism, stability, and intestinal transport behavior. Spectroscopic analysis combined with isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) revealed that LHDVK binds Ca2+ primarily through...
