Beta timozin

alt text — NMR struktura β-timozina. Timozin α₁ ^[1] i β-timozini su intrinsično nestrukturirani proteini, i.e. njima nedostaje stabilno savijanje kad su slobodni u vodenom rastvoru. Ova struktura, koja je uglavnom alfa heliks, je veštački stabilizovana organskim rastvaračem.^[2]

Beta timozini su familija proteina koji imaju zajedničku sekvencu od oko 40 aminokiselina. Oni su slični peptidu timozin β₄. Beta timozini su prisutni u skoro isključivo u multićelijskim životinjama. Timozin β₄ je originalno izdvojen iz grudne žlezde zajedno sa nekoliko drugih peptida, i oni su dobili zajedničko ime timozini. Kasnije je utvrđeno da su ti proteini strukturno i genetički različiti i da su prisutni u mnogim životinjskim tkivima.
