Infrared spectra of hen egg white lysozyme and bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorbed on a solid poly tris(trimethylsiloxy)silylstyrene (pTSS) surface in D2O solution were measured using attenuated total reflection (ATR) Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. From the area and shape of the amide I' band of each spectrum, the adsorption amount and the secondary structure were determined simultaneously, as a function of adsorption time. We could show that the average conformation for all the adsorbed lysozyme molecules was solely determined by the adsorption time, and independent of the bulk concentration, while the adsorption amount increased with the bulk concentration as well as the adsorption time. These results suggest that lysozyme molecules form discrete assemblies on the surface, and that the surface assemblies grow over several hours to have a definite architecture independent of the adsorption amount. As for BSA, the extent of the conformational change was solely determined by the adsorption amount, regardless of the bulk concentration and the adsorption time. These differences in the adsorption properties of lysozyme and BSA may reflect differences in their conformational stabilities.  相似文献

External reflection FTIR spectroscopy and surface pressure measurements were used to compare conformational changes in the adsorbed structures of three globular proteins at the air/water interface. Of the three proteins studied, lysozyme, bovine serum albumin and beta-lactoglobulin, lysozyme was unique in its behaviour. Lysozyme adsorption was slow, taking approximately 2.5 h to reach a surface pressure plateau (from a 0.07 mM solution), and led to significant structural change. The FTIR spectra revealed that lysozyme formed a highly networked adsorbed layer of unfolded protein with high antiparallel beta-sheet content and that these changes occurred rapidly (within 10 min). This non-native secondary structure is analogous to that of a 3D heat-set protein gel, suggesting that the adsorbed protein formed a highly networked interfacial layer. Albumin and beta-lactoglobulin adsorbed rapidly (reaching a plateau within 10 min) and with little change to their native secondary structure.  相似文献

We have studied the adsorption of human serum albumin and human gamma globulins onto a polyurethane (Pellethane 2363-80A) using an attenuated total reflectance (ATR) flow cell. Spectra of the proteins adsorbed onto the polyurethane surface, and of the same proteins in solution were collected for comparison. Significant spectral differences between the solution and surface adsorbed spectra of both proteins were observed.  相似文献

Adsorption of the tripeptide L-glutathione (gamma-glu-cys-gly) on gold surfaces was investigated by polarization modulation infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) and attenuated total reflection (ATR) infrared spectroscopy. PM-IRRAS was used to study ex situ the adsorbate layer prepared from aqueous solutions at different pH, whereas ATR-IR was applied to study in situ adsorption from ethanol in the presence and absence of acid and base. ATR-IR was furthermore combined with modulation spectroscopy in order to investigate the reversible changes within the adsorbate layer induced by acid and base stimuli, respectively. The molecule is firmly anchored on the gold surface via the thiol group of the cys part. However, the ATR-IR spectra in ethanol indicate a further interaction with the gold surface via the carboxylic acid group of the gly part of the molecule, which deprotonates upon adsorption. Hydrochloric acid readily protonates the two acid groups of the adsorbed molecule. During subsequent ethanol flow the acid groups deprotonate again, a process which proceeds in two distinct steps: a fast step associated with the deprotonation of the acid in the glu part of the molecule and a considerably slower step associated with deprotonation of the acid in the gly moiety. The latter process is assisted by the interaction of the corresponding acid group with the surface. The spectra furthermore indicate a rearrangement of the hydrogen bonding network within the adsorbate layer upon deprotonation. Depending on the protonation state during adsorption of l-glutathione, the response toward identical protonation-deprotonation stimuli is significantly different. This is explained by the ionic state-dependent shape of the molecule, as supported by density functional theory calculations. The different shapes of the individual molecules during layer formation thus influence the structure of the adsorbate layer.  相似文献

The kinetics of adsorption of lysozyme and alpha-lactalbumin from aqueous solution on silica and hydrophobized silica has been studied. The initial rate of adsorption of lysozyme at the hydrophilic surface is comparable with the limiting flux. For lysozyme at the hydrophobic surface and alpha-lactalbumin on both surfaces, the rate of adsorption is lower than the limiting flux, but the adsorption proceeds cooperatively, as manifested by an increase in the adsorption rate after the first protein molecules are adsorbed. At the hydrophilic surface, adsorption saturation (reflected in a steady-state value of the adsorbed amount) of both proteins strongly depends on the rate of adsorption, but for the hydrophobic surface no such dependency is observed. It points to structural relaxation ("spreading") of the adsorbed protein molecules, which occurs at the hydrophobic surface faster than at the hydrophilic one. For lysozyme, desorption has been studied as well. It is found that the desorbable fraction decreases after longer residence time of the protein at the interface.  相似文献

Electrostatic effects on protein adsorption were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and adsorption isotherms. The thermal denaturation of lysozyme, ribonuclease A (RNase), and alpha-lactalbumin in solution and adsorbed onto silica nanoparticles was examined at three concentrations of cations: 10 and 100 mM of sodium and 100 mM of sodium to which 10 mM of calcium was added. The parameters investigated were the denaturation enthalpy (DeltaH), the temperature at which the denaturation transition was half-completed (T(m)), and the temperature range of the denaturation transition. For lysozyme and RNase, adsorption isotherms depend strongly on the ionic strength. At low ionic strength both proteins have a high affinity for the silica particles and adsorption is accompanied by a 15-25% reduction in DeltaH and a 3-6 degrees C decrease in T(m), indicating that the adsorbed state of the proteins is destabilized. Also, an increase in the width of the denaturation transition is observed, signifying a larger conformational heterogeneity of the surface bound proteins. At higher ionic strengths, both with and without the addition of calcium, no significant adsorption-induced alteration in DeltaH was observed for all three proteins. The addition of calcium, however, decreases the width of the denaturation transition for lysozyme and RNase in the adsorbed state. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.  相似文献

The use of self-assembled monolayers is an established method to study the effect of surface properties on proteins and other biological materials. The generation of a monolayer with a gradient of chemical properties allows for the study of multiple surface properties simultaneously in a high throughput manner. Typically, in order to detect the presence of proteins or biological material on a surface, the use of additional dyes or tags is required. Here we present a novel method of studying the effect of gradient surface properties on protein adsorption and crystallization in situ through the use of ATR-FTIR spectroscopic imaging, which removes the need for additional labeling. We describe the successful application of this technique to the measurement of the growth of a gradient monolayer of octyltrichlorosilane across the surface of a silicon ATR element. ATR-FTIR imaging was also used to study the adsorption of lysozyme, as a model protein, onto the modified surface. The sensitivity of measurements obtained with a focal plane array (FPA) detector were improved though the use of pixel averaging which allowed small absorption bands to be detected with minimal effect on the spatial resolution along the gradient. Study of the effect of surface hydrophobicity on both adsorption of lysozyme to the element and lysozyme crystallization revealed that more lysozyme adsorbed to the hydrophobic side of the ATR element and more lysozyme crystals formed in the same region. These findings strongly suggest a correlation exists between surface protein adsorption and protein crystallization. This method could be applied to the study of other proteins and whole cells.  相似文献

The adsorption of two dextrin-based polymers, a regular wheat dextrin (TY) and a carboxymethyl-substituted (CM) dextrin, onto an anatase TiO(2) particle film has been studied using in situ attenuated total reflection (ATR) FTIR spectroscopy. Infrared spectra of the polymer solutions and the polymer adsorbed at the anatase surface were acquired for two solution conditions: pH 3 and pH 9; below and above the isoelectric point (IEP) of anatase, respectively. Comparison of the polymer solution spectra and the adsorbed layer spectra highlighted a number of spectral differences that were attributed to involvement of the carboxyl group of CM Dextrin interacting with the anatase surface directly and the adsorption of oxidized dextrin chains in the case of regular dextrin (TY) at high pH. The adsorption/desorption kinetics were determined by monitoring spectral peaks of the pyranose ring of both polymers. Adsorption equilibrium was not established for Dextrin TY for many hours, whereas CM Dextrin reached equilibrium in its adsorption within 60 min. The extent of desorption of Dextrin TY (observed by flowing a background electrolyte dextrin-free solution) was extensive at both pH values, which reflects the poor affinity and binding of the polymer on anatase. In contrast, CM Dextrin underwent almost no desorption, indicating a high affinity between the carboxyl groups of the polymer and the anatase surface.  相似文献

Probing the surface chemistry of thiol ligand binding to cadmium chalcogenide nanocrystals is important to clarify factors involved in quantum dot stability and surface functionalization. Deposited CdS nanocrystal films have been used in this work as model quantum dot surfaces for ligand adsorption studies. The adsorption of mercaptoacetic acid, mercaptopropionic acid, and mercaptoethanol, from aqueous solution to CdS thin films, has been studied by in situ infrared spectroscopy. The absence of a S-H stretch absorption for the adsorbed species shows that adsorption occurs via the deprotonated thiol group, and the spectrum of the adsorbed carboxylic acid species closely resembles those of the solution ligands. Adsorption of mercaptoacetic acid and of mercaptopropionic acid resulted in pKa(COOH) decreases of 1.5 and 0.5, respectively. Significant changes in the spectrum of mercaptoethanol upon adsorption have been observed, but the present uncertainty in mercaptoethanol spectral interpretation does not provide structural inferences. Adsorption isotherms determined from the spectral data indicate strong thiol adsorption to CdS. The adsorption isotherms have been fitted to both Langmuir and Freundlich equations, with the latter providing a better fit. This may be attributed to a change in the probability of adsorption to vacant surface sites due to the increased CdS surface negative charge as the surface coverage increases.  相似文献

Surface-induced aggregation is a common instability during protein storage, delivery and purification. This aggregation can lead to the formation of fibrils rich in intermolecular beta-sheet structure. Techniques to probe surface-clustering are limited. Here we use protein intrinsic fluorescence and thioflavin T probe fluorescence in a total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) sampling geometry to simultaneously monitor the kinetics of adsorption and aggregation for chicken egg lysozyme on a silica surface. We observe a slow surface-induced aggregation process that continues well after the lysozyme adsorption kinetics have plateaued. The rate of surface-induced aggregation is independent of the lysozyme concentration in solution. Consistent with the clustering observed via thioflavin T fluorescence, infrared amide I band spectra also show a 1.5-fold increase in intermolecular beta-sheet content upon lysozyme adsorption. Tryptophan emission spectra show no evidence for any tertiary structural change upon adsorption. Furthermore, we observe that the covalent modification of lysozyme with a single poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) grafted chain does not inhibit aggregation on the surface, but a second PEG graft significantly inhibits the intermolecular beta-sheet formation.  相似文献

The adsorption behavior of pyridine on a smooth polycrystalline gold electrode surface was investigated over a wide wavenumber region (2000–500 cm−1) by in situ infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS). The reversible adsorption/desorption of pyridine was observed upon the change in applied electrode potential, and the adsorption state at positive potentials was found to depend strongly on the kind of halide ion used as a supporting electrolyte. Symmetry analysis of absorption bands observed revealed that pyridine molecules adsorb with the molecular axis (C2 axis) perpendicular to the electrode surface (vertical configuration) at positive potentials in 0.5 M KF, KCl and KBr solutions. A band due to the out-of-plane bending mode of the adsorbed pyridine molecule was observed at potentials more negative than ca. 0 V for 0.5 M KF solution containing 100 mM pyridine. We concluded that even in the 100 mM pyridine solution, adsorbed pyridine forms a monolayer and that the molecules reorient from a flat (parallel) to the vertical configuration as the potential becomes less negative. No bands due to adsorbed pyridine were detected for 0.5 M KI solution. The amount of adsorbed pyridine was found to depend strongly on the strength of specific adsorption of halide ions.  相似文献

The adsorption kinetics and dodeceyltrimethylammonium bromide-mediated elution of the wild type and two structural stability mutants of bacteriophage T4 lysozyme were recorded in situ, at silica surfaces. Experiments were performed at different solution concentrations, ranging from 0.01 to 1.0 mg/ml. Plateau values of adsorbed mass generally increased with increasing solution concentration, with the adsorbed layer being only partially eluted by buffer. Treatment with surfactant removed more of the adsorbed protein in each case, with the remaining adsorbed mass varying little with concentration. Comparison of the data to an adsorption mechanism allowing for three adsorbed states, distinguished by binding strength, showed that the fraction of adsorbed molecules present in the most tightly bound state (state 3) decreased as adsorption occurred from solutions of increasing concentration. However, the absolute amounts of state 3 molecules present in each case were less dependent on solution concentration. Adsorption of T4 lysozyme into state 3 is suggested to occur early in the adsorption process and continue until some critical surface concentration is reached. Beyond this critical value of adsorbed mass, adsorption is suggested to progress with adoption of more loosely bound states.  相似文献

The adsorption of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) from aqueous solution onto a calcium fluoride substrate (CaF(2)), in the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) of different molecular weights, has been investigated using the interface specific nonlinear optical technique of sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy. Spectra of adsorbed SDS (in the C-H stretching region) were recorded at the surface of a CaF(2) prism in contact with SDS solutions at concentrations up to the cmc (8 mM) of the pure surfactant and in contact with binary solutions containing SDS and PEG with molecular weights from 400 to 12 000. In contrast with SFG spectra from the same combinations of surfactant and polymer on a hydrophobic surface, there was no evidence of spectra arising from the actual polymer adsorbed on CaF(2) at any polymer molecular weight either in the absence or presence of surfactant. However, there was indirect evidence for the presence of adsorbed polymer from changes in the SDS SFG spectra in the presence of polymer compared with spectra when the polymer was absent. The SFG spectra of SDS at 0.8 mM were closely similar to each other at all polymer molecular weights and different from the spectra in the absence of the polymer. The spectral differences between the polymer present and polymer absent was much smaller when the solution concentration of surfactant was 8 mM.  相似文献

The adsorption of 2-amino-4-methylbenzothiazole (2-AMBT) on colloidal silver particles has been investigated by a surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) study. The SERS spectra of the 2-AMBT molecule at varied adsorbate concentrations recorded in different time domains are compared with its Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum and normal Raman spectrum (NRS) in the bulk and in solution. The experimentally observed SERS spectra are compared with the theoretically modeled surface complexes using ab initio restricted Hatree-Fock (RHF) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The most favorable adsorptive sites of the 2-AMBT molecule have been estimated by natural population analysis (NPA) using the above-mentioned high level of theories. The enhancement of the in-plane modes together with the appearance of Ag-N stretching frequency at 215 cm(-1) indicates that the 2-AMBT molecule is adsorbed on the silver surface through the lone pair electrons of both nitrogen atoms with the molecular plane nearly vertical to the surface.  相似文献

The influence of surface roughness on surfactant adsorption was studied using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). The sensors employed had root-mean-square (R) roughness values of 2.3, 3.1, and 5.8 nm, corresponding to fractal-calculated surface area ratios (actual/nominal) of 1.13, 1.73, and 2.53, respectively. Adsorption isotherms measured at 25 °C showed that adsorbed mass of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide per unit of actual surface area below 0.8 cmc, or above 1.2 cmc, decreases as the surface roughness increases. At the cmc, both the measured adsorbed amount and the measured dissipation increased dramatically on the rougher surfaces. These results are consistent with the presence of impurities, suggesting that roughness exacerbates well-known phenomena reported in the literature of peak impurity-related adsorption at the cmc. The magnitude of the increase, especially in dissipation, suggests that changes in adsorbed amount may not be the only reason for the observed results, as aggregates at the cmc on rougher surfaces are more flexible and likely contain larger amounts of solvent. Differences in adsorption kinetics were also found as a function of surface roughness, with data showing a second, slower adsorption rate after rapid initial adsorption. A two-rate Langmuir model was used to further examine this effect. Although adsorption completes faster on the smoother surfaces, initial adsorption at zero surface coverage is faster on the rougher surfaces, suggesting the presence of more high-energy sites on the rougher surfaces.  相似文献

The adsorption of a 14-amino acid amphiphilic peptide, LK14, which is composed of leucine (L, nonpolar) and lysine (K, charged), on hydrophobic polystyrene (PS) and hydrophilic silica (SiO2) was investigated in situ by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy. The LK14 peptide, adsorbed from a pH 7.4 phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution, displayed very different coverage, surface roughness and friction, topography, and surface-induced orientation when adsorbed onto PS versus SiO2 surfaces. Real-time QCM adsorption data revealed that the peptide adsorbed onto hydrophobic PS through a fast (t < 2 min) process, while a much slower (t > 30 min) multistep adsorption and rearrangement occurred on the hydrophilic SiO2. AFM measurements showed different surface morphologies and friction coefficients for LK14 adsorbed on the two surfaces. Surface-specific SFG spectra indicate very different ordering of the adsorbed peptide on hydrophobic PS as compared to hydrophilic SiO2. At the LK14 solution/PS interface, CH resonances corresponding to the hydrophobic leucine side chains are evident. Conversely, only NH modes are observed at the peptide solution/SiO2 interface, indicating a different average molecular orientation on this hydrophilic surface. The surface-dependent difference in the molecular-scale peptide interaction at the solution/hydrophobic solid versus solution/hydrophilic solid interfaces (measured by SFG) is manifested as significantly different macromolecular-level adsorption properties on the two surfaces (determined via AFM and QCM experiments).  相似文献

Generally, the apolar/polar surface is probed by water-wetting, which is measured using a method such as the sessile liquid drop method. However, when one tries to measure the wetting of a surface where biological macromolecules are adsorbed, there is the problem of a change in conformation due to drying the surface; hence, using this method in situ information cannot be obtained. We have developed a new method that can be used to measure the wettability of the adsorbed protein surface without drying. This method, the dropping time method, which is based on measuring the dropping time of a film of liquid along a protein-covered surface when this surface is instantaneously vertically removed from the protein solution. The adsorption behavior of four proteins (albumin, lysozyme, β-lactoglobulin, ovalbumin) on the surface of silica glass that has been treated with various fluorosurfactants is studied using this method. At a high concentration of protein, the surfaces of adsorbed proteins of any kind are fairly hydrophilic on glass treated with all fluorosurfactants. At a lower concentration of protein, the hydrophilicity of the protein layer depends on the kind of fluorosurfactant and also on the protein adsorption process. The apolar glass surface becomes more hydrophilic with increasing dipping time in the protein solution. On the other hand, the hydrophilic glass surface shows a complex change in the hydrophilicity with elapsed time after dipping it into a solution of albumin or lysozyme, i.e., the hydrophilicity decreases in the early stage of the adsorption and then increases with proceeding adsorption.

Infrared-visible sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy, in combination with fluorescence microscopy, was employed to investigate the surface structure of lysozyme, fibrinogen, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorbed on hydrophilic silica and hydrophobic polystyrene as a function of protein concentration. Fluorescence microscopy shows that the relative amounts of protein adsorbed on hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces increase in proportion with the concentration of protein solutions. For a given bulk protein concentration, a larger amount of protein is adsorbed on hydrophobic polystyrene surfaces compared to hydrophilic silica surfaces. While lysozyme molecules adsorbed on silica surfaces yield relatively similar SFG spectra, regardless of the surface concentration, SFG spectra of fibrinogen and BSA adsorbed on silica surfaces exhibit concentration-dependent signal intensities and peak shapes. Quantitative SFG data analysis reveals that methyl groups in lysozyme adsorbed on hydrophilic surfaces show a concentration-independent orientation. However, methyl groups in BSA and fibrinogen become less tilted with respect to the surface normal with increasing protein concentration at the surface. On hydrophobic polystyrene surfaces, all proteins yield similar SFG spectra, which are different from those on hydrophilic surfaces. Although more protein molecules are present on hydrophobic surfaces, lower SFG signal intensity is observed, indicating that methyl groups in adsorbed proteins are more randomly oriented as compared to those on hydrophilic surfaces. SFG data also shows that the orientation and ordering of phenyl rings in the polystyrene surface is affected by protein adsorption, depending on the amount and type of proteins.  相似文献

Recently, nanodiamond particles have attracted increasing attention as a promising nanomaterial for its biocompatibility, easy functionalization and conjugation with biomolecules, and its superb physical/chemical properties. Nanodiamonds are mainly used as markers for cell imaging, using its fluorescence or Raman signals for detection, and as carriers for drug delivery. For the success of these applications, the biomolecule associated with the nanodiamond has to retain its functionality. In this work, the protein activities of egg white lysozyme adsorbed on nanodiamond particles of different sizes is investigated. The lysozyme nanodiamond complex is used here as a protein model for analyzing its structural conformation changes and, correspondingly, its enzymatic activity after the adsorption. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) is used for the analysis of the sensitive protein secondary structure. To access the activities of the adsorbed lysozyme, a fluorescence-based assay is used. The process of adsorption is also analyzed using UV-visible spectroscopic measurements in combination with analysis of nanodiamond properties with FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, and ζ-potential measurements. It is found that the activity of lysozyme upon adsorption depends on the nanodiamond's size and surface properties, and that the nanodiamond particles can be selected and treated, which do not alter the lysozyme functional properties. Such nanodiamonds can be considered convenient nanoparticles for various bioapplications.  相似文献

Arsenate adsorption on amorphous (RuO(2)1.1H(2)O) and crystalline (RuO(2)) ruthenium oxides was evaluated using spectroscopic and kinetic methods to elucidate the adsorption mechanism. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) was used to determine the local coordination environment of adsorbed arsenate. Additionally, pressure-jump (p-jump) relaxation spectroscopy was used to investigate the kinetics of arsenate adsorption/desorption on ruthenium oxides. Chemical relaxations resulting from the induced pressure change were monitored via electrical conductivity detection. EXAFS data were collected for two initial arsenate solution concentrations, 3 and 33 mM at pH 5. The collected spectra indicated a similar coordination environment for arsenate adsorbed to RuO(2)1.1H(2)O for both arsenate concentrations. In contrast the EXAFS spectra of RuO(2) indicated differences in the local coordination environments for the crystalline material with increasing arsenate concentration. Data analysis indicated that both mono- and bidentate surfaces complexes were present on both RuO(2)1.1H(2)O and RuO(2). Relaxation spectra from the pressure-jump experiments of both ruthenium oxides resulted in a double relaxation event. Based on the relaxation spectra, a two step reaction mechanism for arsenate adsorption is proposed resulting in the formation of a bidentate surface complex. Analysis of the kinetic and spectroscopic data suggested that while there were two relaxation events, arsenate adsorbed to ruthenium oxide surfaces through both mono- and bidentate surface complexes.  相似文献
