Adsorption kinetics of bovine serum albumin on fused silica: population heterogeneities revealed by single-molecule fluorescence microscopy

The adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on fused silica at neutral pH was investigated at the single-molecule level by total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. Dye-labeled BSA molecules that adsorbed on the quartz surface lit up as discrete, fluorescent dots which eventually disappeared upon desorption. Movies of these events offered unprecedented details for kinetics modeling. The results suggested that 99.3% of the BSA was not sticky, and even if adsorbed, it would desorb in minutes. In contrast, the remaining 0.7% was not only sticky, but would anchor in due course. Such population heterogeneity, otherwise masked in ensemble measurements, sheds new light on our understanding of protein adsorption. The methodology is also generally applicable to the studies of macromolecules at interfaces.

Investigation of the association behaviors between biliverdin and bovine serum albumin by fluorescence spectroscopy

The interaction between biliverdin and bovine serum albumin (BSA) has been studied by steady fluorescence spectroscopy, synchronous fluorescence and resonance light scanning spectra. The binding of biliverdin to BSA quenches the tryptophan residue fluorescence and the results show that both static and dynamic quenching occur together with complex formation. The binding constant and binding sites of biliverdin to BSA at pH 7.1 are calculated to be 3.33 × 10⁸ L/mol and 1.54, respectively, according to the double logarithm regression curve. In addition, the distance between the biliverdin and BSA is estimated to be 1.25 nm using Föster's equation on the basis of the fluorescence energy transfer. Furthermore the synchronous fluorescence spectra show that the microenvironment of the tryptophan residues has not obvious changes, which obeys the phase distribution model. Finally, the thermodynamic data show that biliverdin molecules enter the hydrophobic cavity of BSA via hydrophobic interaction.     

Adsorption of bovine serum albumin to acrylamide–itaconic acid hydrogels

In this study, acrylamide–itaconic acid hydrogels containing different amounts of itaconic acid prepared by irradiating with γ radiation are discussed. They have been used in experiments of swelling, diffusion and bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption. Maximum and minimum swellings were observed with water (1520%) and BSA (890%), respectively. Diffusion of water, NaCl and BSA within hydrogels were found to be non-Fickian in character. In the experiments of BSA adsorption, type III adsorption was found. The hydrogel prepared with 60 mg itaconic acid and irradiated at 2.00 kGy was found to be the best adsorption system for BSA. The adsorption capacity of acrylamide–itaconic acid hydrogel was found to exceed that of acrylamide hydrogel by more than 80–100%.

Adsorption of bovine serum albumin at solid/aqueous interfaces

Adsorption of soluble serum proteins on hydrophilic and hydrophobic solid surfaces is important for biomaterials and chromatographic separations of proteins. The adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) from aqueous solutions was studied with in situ ATR-IR spectroscopy, and with ex situ ATR-IR, ellipsometry, and water wettablity measurements. The results were used to quantitatively determine the adsorbed film thickness and surface density of BSA on hydrophilic silicon oxide/silicon surfaces, and on these surfaces covered with a hydrophobic lipid monolayer of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC). The water contact angles were 5° for silicon oxide, 47° ± 1° for the DDPC monolayer, and 53° ± 1° for the BSA monolayers. At 25 °C, and with 0.01–1 wt% BSA in water, the surface densities range from Γ = 2.6–5.0 mg/m², and the film thicknesses range from d = 2.0–3.8 nm, on the assumption that the film is as dense as bulk protein. These results, and certain changes in the IR amide I and II bands of the protein, indicate that the protein adsorbs as a side-on monolayer, with some flattening due to unfolding or denaturation. The estimated -helical content for protein in buffer solutions is 15% higher than for solutions in water. The adsorption density reaches a steady-state value within 10 min for the lowest concentration, but does not appear to reach a steady-state value after 3 h f‘or the higher concentrations. Adsorption of BSA on a silicon oxide surface covered with a monolayer of DPPC leads to an adsorbed protein film of about half the thickness and surface density than on silicon oxide, but the same contact angle, indicating more protein unfolding on the hydrophobic than on the hydrophilic surface.     

Destabilisation of liposomes by bovine serum albumin; Sepharose 2B-Cl experiment

Summary The stability of liposomes (2∶1 egg yolk lecithin:cholesterol, mole ratio; diameter about 100 nm) at increasing bovine serum albumin (BSA) concentration was study. The influence of introducing positive or negative charge to the liposomal bilayers was tested. The results indicated appreciable destructive effects of serum albumin on the liposomal membranes of neutral and negatively charged liposomes. Near-physiological concentration (30 mg mL⁻¹) of albumin dissolved more then 50% of liposomes. Presented at the 21^st ISC held in Stuttgart, Germany, 15th–20th September, 1996     

Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane-functionalized agarose particles: parameters affecting the binding of bovine serum albumin

A new protein adsorbent is introduced based on the coupling of the common buffer ion, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, to the agarose gel Sepharose HP from GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences AB, Uppsala, Sweden. The article describes the synthesis of the new adsorbent and the use of BSA as a model in a binding study. By optimization of the coupling procedure, a maximum ligand density of 63.5 μmol/mL gel could be obtained. Adsorption equilibria were investigated in the pH range 5.0-8.0 and at salt concentrations of 0-0.4 mol/L. Binding of BSA under different conditions indicated that both electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding were involved in the adsorption process where the former played a major role.

Rhenium(I)-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer probe for conformational changes of bovine serum albumin

Protein binding properties of fac-rhenium(I) complexes with general structure [Re(CO)₃(N-N)L]PF₆, where N-N = 4,4′-dinanoyl-2,2-bipyridine and L = py-3-COOH (1a) and py-3-CONH₂ (1b) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were investigated at physiological pH (7.4) using UV-visible absorption and fluorescence spectral study, excited state lifetime measurement and circular dichroism (CD). The results observed from fluorescence spectra reveal the energy transfer from BSA to Re(I) complex, and the distance r between donor (BSA) and acceptor (Re(I) complex) is 3.05 nm and 2.16 nm for 1a and 1b respectively according to Forster's non-radiative energy transfer theory. CD results show that the binding of Re(I) complex could induce the conformational change with the loss of α-helicity.
