Alpha-lactalbumin possesses a globular structure stabilized by four disulfide bonds and undergoes significant conformational changes depending on environmental factors like calcium ion concentration. In its calcium-bound "holo" form, it serves as a regulatory subunit that binds to and modifies the substrate specificity of galactosyltransferase.
