    International audienceβ-Lactoglobulin was phosphorylated with 20, 40, and 80 mol of POCl3/mol protein in the presence of 4, 5, and 6 molar excess of basic amino acid per mol POCl3. Maximal phosphorylation yields of 5 and 3 mol P/mol protein were achieved when the highest stoichiometries of POCl3/arginine and lysine were used. Proportional high amounts of basic amino acids were also grafted to the protein molecule during its phosphorylation through the phosphoamide bond. Modified proteins displayed increased negative charges and reduced isoelectric points and were monomeric. The phosphorylated and phosphoamidatedβ-lactoglobulin showed improved functional properties
