Whey protein α-lactalbumin interacts with the major green tea catechin, EGCG.
Binding of EGCG results in α-helix to β-sheet transition in α-lactalbumin structure.
EGCG binds in the hydrophobic pocket at the cleft between two domains.
EGCG binding impairs α-lactalbumin uptake by monocytes.
α-lactalbumin can serve as suitable delivery system of EGCG.
