Protein aggregate structure under high pressure

Abstract

We show that casein protein micelles—a complex protein/inorganic phosphate structure—can be subjected to high pressures (up to 350 MPa) while making in situ structural measurements using (ultra-)small angle neutron scattering, to give insight to the protein structure, aggregation and stability under pressure.
