Interaction of epicatechin with bovine serum albumin using fluorescence quenching combined with chemometrics

The interaction between BSA and epicatechin was studied using fluorescence quenching titrations combined with trilinear decomposition method and excitation-emission matrix(EEM)fluorescence.The resolved spectra were highly similar with the actual ones which indicated that the resolved results were reliable.The relevant parameters of the binding process were obtained by quantifying each substance in the complicated mixtures in situ.The quenching was static quenching,epicatechin had a weak interaction with BSA and the binding site was one.The total concentration and the free concentration of quenchers had different effect on the system.The results demonstrated that the method exploited in this article is a useful tool to investigate complicated interactions,avoiding complicated pretreatment and simplify experimental procedure.     

Interaction of Surface-active Fluorescence Probes with Bovine Serum Albumin

The binding between three surface-active substituted 3H-indole fluorescence probes and bovine serum albumin (BSA) in aqueous solution was studied using fluorescence quenching. The binding constants of 3H-indole molecules with BSA were obtained. According to the Foerster resonance energy transfer theory, the distances between 3H-indole molecules and tryptophan of BSA were calculated. The results show that the oligoethyloxyethylene chain of 3H-indole molecules is longer, the binding between them is stronger, the energy transfer efficiency is higher, and the distance between tryptophan and 3H-indole is nearer.     

Spectral studies of the interaction between sanguinarine and guanosine

The interaction between sanguinarine and guanosine was investigated by using UV-vis and fluorescence spectra at pH 7.2. The binding of sanguinarine to guanosine was substantiated by the hypochromism and bathochromism in the absorption spectra and the emission quenching in fluorescence spectra. The fluorescence lifetime results, the varieties of the fluorophore absorption spectra and the decrease of the binding constant with the increasing temperature all indicate that the fluorescence quenching is static. The ratio and constant of the binding cytidine to sanguinarine are 2 and 6.44 × 10^7, respectively. The result shows that the binding of sanguinarine to guanosine is not only exothermic but also entropy-driven with △H=-8.53kJ/mol, AS = 0.12 kJ/（molK）, and AG =-44.57 kJ/mol at 298.15 K.

It crystallizes in tetragonal system, space group P421 c with a = 16.076(3), b = 16.076(3), c = 14.750(2) ?, V = 3811.8(14) ?3, Z = 8, R = 0.0377 and wR = 0.0845. The interactions between compound 1 and bovine serum albumin(BSA) were investigated using fluorescence spectroscopy. The results revealed that compound 1 can effectively quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA by static quenching mechanism. The thermodynamic parameters revealed that the action forces between compound 1 and BSA were mainly van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds. According to F?rster's non-radioactive energy transfer theory, the binding distance between compound 1 and BSA had been determined. Furthermore, the synchronous fluorescence showed that compound 1 has few effects on the microenvironment and conformation of BSA in the binding process.     

Binding equilibrium of I- to serum albumin with resonance Rayleigh scattering

The binding equilibrium between l- and human serum albumin (HSA) or bovine serum albumin (BSA) has been studied by means of the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) and equilibrium dialysis. It has been found for the first time that RRS and multiple frequency scattering (MFS) are enhanced as the l- binding to the HSA and BSA, but fluorescence quenches. The equilibrium dialysis results suggest that the binding of l- to HSA and BSA fits a phase-distribution model other than Scsitchard model, and that the order of magnitude of its phase-distribution constant was found to be 104. It is most probable that Cl~ or other anion ions influence the binding of P by changing the ionic strength in the solution. The dialysis at different pH indicates that the binding mechanism is due to the electrostatic forces between the T-and protonated basic amino-acid residues.     

The open-close mechanism of M2 channel protein in influenza A virus:A computational study on the hydrogen bonds and cation-π interactions among His37 and Trp41

The M2 protein from influenza A virus is a tetrameric ion channel. It was reported that the permeation of the ion channel is correlated with the hydrogen bond network among His37 residues and the cation-π interactions between His37 and Trp41. In the present study,the hydrogen bonding network of 4-methyl-imidazoles was built to mimic the hydrogen bonds between His37 residues,and the cation-π interactions between 4-methyl-imidazolium and indole systems were selected to represent the interac-tions between His37 and Trp41. Then,quantum chemistry calculations at the MP2/6-311G level were carried out to explore the properties of the hydrogen bonds and the cation-π interactions. The calcula-tion results indicate that the binding strength of the N-H···N hydrogen bond between imidazole rings is up to -6.22 kcal·mol-1,and the binding strength of the strongest cation-π interaction is up to -18.8 kcal·mol-1(T-shaped interaction) or -12.3 kcal·mol-1(parallel stacking interaction). Thus,the calcu-lated binding energies indicate that it is possible to control the permeation of the M2 ion channel through the hydrogen bond network and the cation-π interactions by altering the pH values.

氟胞嘧啶与牛血清白蛋白结合反应研究

The binding of flucytosine to bovine serum albumin （BSA） was studied by means of fluorescence and absorption spectra under the conditions of simulant clay physiology. It showed a powerful ability to quench the fluorescence launching from BSA. After analyzing the fluorescence quenching data by Stem-Volmer equation and Lineweaver-Burk double-reciprocal equation, it was found that they matched the latter better and so they belonged to static quenching. The binding constant was calculated to be 5.710 × 10^3 L·mol^-1 at 297 K. The binding locality was a distance 2.49 nm away from tryptophan residue-212 based on Foster＇s non-radiation energy transfer mechanism. The binding power is mainly the hydrogen bond and van der Waals force according to the thermodynamic parameters. The information of BSA conformation was acquired by synchronous fluorescence spectrum and three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum.
