Interaction of water-soluble amino acid Schiff base complexes with bovine serum albumin: fluorescence and circular dichroism studies

Fluorescence spectroscopy in combination with circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy were used to investigate the interaction of water-soluble amino acid Schiff base complexes, [Zn(L1,2)(phen)] where phen is 1,10-phenanthroline and H2L1,2 is amino acid Schiff base ligands, with bovine serum albumin (BSA) under the physiological conditions in phosphate buffer solution adjusted to pH 7.0. The quenching mechanism of fluorescence was suggested as static quenching according to the Stern-Volmer equation. Quenching constants were determined using the Stern-Volmer equation to provide a measure of the binding affinity between amino acid Schiff base complexes and BSA. The thermodynamic parameters DeltaG, DeltaH and DeltaS at different temperatures (298, 310 and 318K) were calculated. The results indicate that the hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interactions play a major role in [Zn(L1)(phen)]-BSA association, whereas hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions participate a main role in [Zn(L2)(phen)]-BSA binding process. Binding studies concerning the number of binding sites and apparent binding constant Kb were performed by fluorescence quenching method. The distance R between the donor (BSA) and acceptor (amino acid Schiff base complexes) has been obtained utilizing fluorescence resonant energy transfer (FRET). Furthermore, CD spectra were used to investigate the structural changes of the BSA molecule with the addition of amino acid Schiff base complexes. The results indicate that the interaction of amino acid Schiff base complexes with BSA leads to changes in the secondary structure of the protein. Fractional contents of the secondary structure of BSA (f(alpha), f(beta), f(turn) and f(random)) were calculated with and without amino acid Schiff base complexes utilizing circular dichroism spectroscopy. Our results clarified that amino acid Schiff base complexes could bind to BSA and be effectively transported and eliminated in the body, which could be a useful guideline for further drug design.     

Fluorescence spectroscopic investigation of the interaction between triphenyltin and humic acids

The interaction between triphenyltin (TPT) and humic acid (HA) was investigated using UV-vis and fluorescence spectra techniques. The experimental results showed that the fluorescence quenching of HA by TPT was a result of the interaction of TPT with HA. The binding constant K(b) and corresponding thermodynamic parameters were measured at different temperatures. The binding of TPT molecule to HA is a spontaneous molecular interaction procedure in which entropy increased and Gibbs free energy decreased. Hydrophobic interaction force plays a major role in stabilizing the TPT-HA complex. The three-dimensional fluorescence contour spectra revealed that TPT could enter into the hydrophobic cavities in some domain of HA.

THE α-CHYMOTRYPSIN EFFECT ON VARIOUS 9-AMINOACRIDINE FLUORESCENT PROBE EMISSION

Abstract The influence of a-chymotrypsin upon the fluorescence of various 9-aminoacridine derivatives was examined. Fluorescence is quenched in the presence of this protein. Moreover, quenching is suppressed by the coexistence of hydrocinnamic acid, a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme activity. This leads us to conclude that there is a fluorescent complex formation between protein and fluorophores. Then, the apparent association constants were calculated and the florescence lifetimes of "free" and "bound" 9-aminoacridine were determined by phase-modulation fluorometry.
It is deduced that 9-aminoacridine compounds are probably located in the enzymatic active site and that the fluorescence quenching is not due to specific interactions with amino acid residues but is a consequence of the characteristics of this binding site, in particular its hydrophobicity and polarity.
Alternatively, when these fluorescent probes are located in the vicinity of some aromatic amino acids (histidin, tryptophan and tyrosin), then the production of non fluorescent complex takes place. It is concluded that 9-aminoacridine compounds can be used for the determination of the type of amino acid residues in the binding sites of proteins.

When Molecular Probes Meet Self‐Assembly: An Enhanced Quenching Effect

We demonstrate that the incorporation of one or two amino acids of phenylalanine (F) or 4‐fluoro phenylalanine (^fF) will greatly lower the background fluorescence intensities of conventional quenched probes with quenchers. This enhanced quenching effect was due to the synergetic effect of the aggregation caused quenching and the presence of a quencher. Such strategy will not greatly affect the enzyme recognition properties to the probes. We also demonstrated that our self‐assembled nanoprobe with the enhanced quenching effect showed a better performance in cells for the detection of cell apoptosis than the unassembled probes. Our study demonstrates that using molecular self‐assembly can optimize and improve the performance of molecular probes and it provides a simple but very useful strategy to boost the signal‐to‐noise ratios of fluorescence probes.     

Gas-Phase Binding of Noncovalent Complexes Between α-cyclodextrin and Amino Acids Investigated by Mass Spectrometry

Noncovalent complexes between cyclodextrins and small molecules have been extensively studied recently because of their widespread application in the pharmaceutical industry for chiral and molecular recognition. To date, gas phase noncovalent binding affinities between α-cyclodextrin and amino acids have not been widely investigated. In this study, gas-phase binding of noncovalent complexes between α-CD and amino acids was investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), demonstrating the formation of 1:1 stoichiometric noncovalent complexes. The binding of the complexes were further confirmed by collision-induced dissociation by tandem mass spectrometry. Mass spectrometric titrations between α-cyclodextrin and phenylalanine, glutamic acid, and arginine were performed to provide binding constants (lgK_a) as references for competitive ESI-MS. Calibration curves for the complexes of α-cyclodextrin with phenylalanine, glutamic acid, and arginine were plotted. Through competitive ESI-MS, the lgK_a for the complexes of α-CD with aspartic acid, lysine, proline, glycine, alanine, asparagine, cystine, glutamine, histidine, leucine, isoleucine, methionine, serine, threonine, and valine were measured directly. By comparison, it is seen that the measured binding constants for the complexes of α-cyclodextrin with basic amino acids such as arginine and lysine are lower than those for most complexes of neutral amino acids. The chiral selectivity of α-cyclodextrin for L- and D-isomers of methionine, threonine, asparagine, and phenylalanine determined by ESI-MS revealed its application as a chiral selector.
