Phosvitin structure adapted from vitellogenin AlphaFold (AF-P02845-F1; residues 1112-1328) with serine residues highlighted in red. Visualized using ChimeraX. Phosvitin is one of the egg (commonly hen's egg) yolk [1] [2] phosphoproteins known for being the most phosphorylated protein found in nature.
The yolk of the eggs have not yet fully solidified. Eggs contain multiple proteins that gel at different temperatures within the yolk and the white, and the temperature determines the gelling time. Egg yolk becomes a gel, or solidifies, between 61 and 70 °C (142 and 158 °F). Egg white gels at different temperatures: 60 to 73 °C (140 to 163 °F).

[3] This reaction occurs more rapidly in older eggs as the whites are more alkaline. [4]
