Studies on components 1' (modified monomer) and 2 (dimer) formed during heat-treatment of bovine serum albumin

When the solution of bovine serum albumin at pH 9 is incubated at 65 °C, new components 1' (modified monomer), 2 (dimer) and 3 (probably trimer) are formed. The isoelectric focusing indicated that the isoelectric points of components 1', 2 and 3 were pH 5.9.The hydrogen ion titration curve for the native albumin had well known abnormal steepness at pH near 4, but that for component 1' had no abnormal steepness. The titration curve for component 1' located right side of that for the native albumin.Circular dichroism measurements indicated that some unfolding occurred, when the native albumin was changed to component 1'. The contents of-helix were 74 and 52 % for the native albumin and for component 1', respectively. The contents of -structure were 19 and 23 % for the native albumin and for component 1', respectively. The wavelength of maximum intensity of tryptophan fluorescence shifted to lower wavelength, when the native albumin was changed to component 1'. This suggests that tryptophan residue(s) is transferred to a more hydrophobic environment.The hydrogen ion titration curves, circular dichroism and fluorescence measurements, all supported the possibility that the component 2 is formed by the dimerization of component 1'. Further, it has been found that component 2' (dimer impurity in commercial bovine serum albumin preparations) is formed by the direct dimerization of native bovine serum albumin without conformational change.

Mechanism and conformational studies of farrerol binding to bovine serum albumin by spectroscopic methods

The mechanism and conformational changes of farrerol binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by spectroscopic methods including fluorescence quenching technique, UV–vis absorption, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy under simulative physiological conditions. The results of fluorescence titration revealed that farrerol could strongly quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA through a static quenching procedure. The thermodynamic parameters enthalpy change and entropy change for the binding were calculated to be −29.92 kJ mol⁻¹ and 5.06 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ according to the van’t Hoff equation, which suggested that the both hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds play major role in the binding of farrerol to BSA. The binding distance r deduced from the efficiency of energy transfer was 3.11 nm for farrerol–BSA system. The displacement experiments of site markers and the results of fluorescence anisotropy showed that warfarin and farrerol shared a common binding site I corresponding to the subdomain IIA of BSA. Furthermore, the studies of synchronous fluorescence, CD and FT-IR spectroscopy showed that the binding of farrerol to BSA induced conformational changes in BSA.     

Spectroscopic studies of trimetoxypropylsilane and bis(trimethoxysilyl)ethane sol-gel coatings on aluminum and copper

Trimethoxypropylsilane (TMPS) and bis(trimethoxysilyl)ethane (BTMSE) were used as surface modifiers of metal vie the sol-gel process and dip coating. In addition to the single coating of Al, Cu and Sn, double treatments of Al were also conducted by combining coatings with these sol-gels in different sequences. Reflection and absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIR) was employed to characterize and to trace the proceeding of the sol-gel process of the films. It was found that the silanol condensation occurs in the coating films on Al and the covalent linkage exists between the TMPS film and copper surface. From the assigned vibration modes, two conformers were identified in pure TMPS, TMPS sol-gel and coated film. A series of dip coating experiments with different concentrations of TMPS sol-gel was conducted, and the results from the collected RAIR spectra of the coated samples suggested that the coated Cu consistently has a better RAIR spectrum than that of the coated Al. The TMPS sol-gel appeared to have a better affinity to Cu than to Al. The temperature effect and the aging effect in the coating films were studied. X-ray photoelectronic spectroscopy (XPS) was employed to characterize the coated film, and the XPS data confirm the formation of the siloxane film from the silane coupling agents (SCA). Electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS) have been collected for bare Al and Cu, BTMSE sol-gel coated Al, and TMPS sol-gel coated Cu in 0.15M NaCl solution. The corresponding electronic circuit parameters have been determined to match the experimental EIS data.     

Studies on the binding of nevadensin to human serum albumin by molecular spectroscopy and modeling

The binding of nevadensin to human serum albumin (HSA) in aqueous solution was investigated for the first time by molecular spectroscopy and modeling at pH 7.4. Spectrophotometric observations are rationalized in terms of a static quenching process and binding constant (K_a, K_b) and the number of binding sites (n ≈ 1) were evaluated by fluorescence quenching methods. Thermodynamic data showed that nevadensin was included in the hydrophobic cavity of HSA mainly via hydrophobic interactions. The value of 3.09 nm for the distance r between the donor (HSA) and acceptor (nevadensin) was derived from the fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Spectrophotometric techniques were also applied to investigate the structural information of HSA molecules on the binding of nevadensin and the results showed that the binding of nevadensin to HSA did not change significantly molecular conformation of HSA in our experimental conditions. Furthermore, the study of molecular modeling also indicated that nevadensin could strongly bind to the site I (subdomain IIA) of HSA mainly by a hydrophobic interaction and there are hydrogen bond interactions between nevadensin and the residues Arg-218, Arg-222, Lys-195, and Asp-451. As compared to the other flavonoids, the flavonoids containing methoxy groups which are in aromatic rings can bind to HSA with higher affinity.     

Vibrational spectroscopic studies of (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxylsilane sol-gel and its coating

Organosilane sol-gels have been prepared under different conditions from mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS) and mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane (MPTES). These sol-gels were applied for the thin film coating on aluminum. Vibrational spectroscopy has been employed to trace and to study the proceeding of the sol-gel formation and the curing of the coated films on Al. Based on the group frequencies as well as their spectral behavior under different conditions, vibrational assignments have been made for most of the observed bands. Surface enhanced Raman scattering has revealed the chemical adsorption of MPTMS sol-gel on silver particles. Recorded reflection and absorption infrared (RAIR) spectra of coated tiles cured at different temperatures have indicated that surface reaction may occur at high temperature. The anticorrosion characters of the coated metals have been evaluated with the measured electrochemical data. Results from cyclic voltammographs have indicated that each layer of sol-gel coating would reduce the redox current across the electrode/electrolyte solution interface. Tafel plots have shown that the anodic current of the coated electrode decreases significantly and the corrosion potentials shift to the positive side.

The interaction of raltitrexed(RTX) with bovine serum albumin(BSA) was investigated by steady state/lifetime fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism(CD) spectroscopy under the simulative physiological conditions. The results of fluorescence titration reveal that RTX could strongly quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA via a static quenching procedure.

The binding process was a spontaneous process, in which Gibbs free energy change was negative. According to Förster’s non-radioactive energy transfer theory, the distance r between donor(BSA) and acceptor(RTX) was 3.82 nm, suggesting that the energy transfer from BSA to RTX occurred with high probability. Displacement experiment and the number of binding sites calculation confirmed that RTX could bind to the site-I of BSA. Furthermore, the effects of pH and some metal ions on the interaction of RTX with BSA were also investigated. The results of synchronous fluorescence and CD spectra show that the RTX-BSA binding induced conformational changes in BSA.
