This investigation completes the amendment of theoretical expressions for the characterization of antigen–antibody interactions by kinetic exclusion assay—an endeavor that has been marred by inadequate allowance for the consequences of antibody bivalence in its uptake by the affinity matrix (immobilized antigen) that is used to ascertain the fraction of free antibody sites in a solution with defined total concentrations of antigen and antibody. A simple illustration of reacted site probability considerations in action confirms that the square root of the fluorescence response ratio, RAg/Ro, needs to be taken in order to determine the fraction of unoccupied antibody sites, which is the parameter employed to describe the kinetics of antigen uptake in the mixture of antigen and antibody with defined initial composition. The approximately 2-fold underestimation of the association rate constant (ka) that emanates from the usual practice of omitting the square root factor gives rise to a corresponding overestimate of the equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd)—a situation that is also encountered in the thermodynamic characterization of antigen–antibody interactions by kinetic exclusion assay.  相似文献

The interactions of keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) with chromium nitrate, potassium dichromate, and chromate were investigated using fluorescence, UV–vis absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy under simulated physiological conditions. The experimental results showed that the different forms of chromium could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of KLH following a static quenching mechanism rather than by dynamic collision, which indicated that a Cr–KLH complex was formed. The Stern–Volmer quenching constants for the interaction indicated that the binding reaction of KLH with Cr(VI) was stronger the binding of KLH with Cr(III). The thermodynamic values for binding of Cr(VI) to KLH are ΔH > 0 and ΔS > 0. By contrast, the values for the interaction of Cr(III) with KLH are ΔH < 0 and ΔS < 0. The results of synchronous fluorescence, UV–vis absorption and CD spectroscopy showed that the α‐helical secondary structure and conformation of KLH were altered by different forms of chromium.

Human thrombopoietin (hTPO) primarily stimulates megakaryocytopoiesis and platelet production and is neutralized by the mouse TN1 antibody. The thermodynamic characteristics of TN1 antibody–hTPO complexation were analyzed by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) using an antigen‐binding fragment (Fab) derived from the TN1 antibody (TN1‐Fab). To clarify the mechanism by which hTPO is recognized by TN1‐Fab the conformation of free TN1‐Fab was determined to a resolution of 2.0 Å using X‐ray crystallography and compared with the hTPO‐bound form of TN1‐Fab determined by a previous study. This structural comparison revealed that the conformation of TN1‐Fab does not substantially change after hTPO binding and a set of 15 water molecules is released from the antigen‐binding site (paratope) of TN1‐Fab upon hTPO complexation. Interestingly, the heat capacity change (ΔCp) measured by ITC (?1.52 ± 0.05 kJ mol?1 K?1) differed significantly from calculations based upon the X‐ray structure data of the hTPO‐bound and unbound forms of TN1‐Fab (?1.02 ~ 0.25 kJ mol?1 K?1) suggesting that hTPO undergoes an induced‐fit conformational change combined with significant desolvation upon TN1‐Fab binding. The results shed light on the structural biology associated with neutralizing antibody recognition.  相似文献

In this study, binding properties of clenbuterol hydrochloride (CL) with human serum albumin (HSA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were examined using constant protein concentrations and various CL contents under physiological conditions. The binding parameters were confirmed using fluorescence quenching spectroscopy at various temperatures. The experimental results confirmed that the quenching mechanisms of CL and HSA/BSA were both static quenching processes. The thermodynamic parameters, namely, enthalpy change (ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS), were calculated according to the van't Hoff equation, which suggested that the electrostatic interactions were the predominant intermolecular forces in stabilizing the CL–HSA complex, and hydrogen bonds and van der Waals force were the predominant intermolecular forces in stabilizing the CL–BSA complex. Furthermore, the conformational changes of HSA/BSA in the presence of CL were determined using the data obtained from three‐dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet‐visible absorption spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy.

Thymol is the main monoterpene phenol present in the essential oils which is used in the food industry as flavoring and preservative agent. In this study, the interaction of thymol with the concentration range of 1 to 6 μM and bovine serum albumin (BSA) at fixed concentration of 1 μM was investigated by fluorescence, UV‐vis, and molecular docking methods under physiological‐like condition. Fluorescence experiments were performed at 5 different temperatures, and the results showed that the fluorescence quenching of BSA by thymol was because of a static quenching mechanism. The obtained binding parameters, K, were in the order of 104 M?1, and the binding number, n, was approximately equal to unity indicating that there is 1 binding site for thymol on BSA. Calculated thermodynamic parameters for enthalpy (ΔH), entropy (ΔS), and Gibb's free energy (ΔG) showed that the reaction was spontaneous and hydrophobic interactions were the main forces in the binding of thymol to BSA. The results of UV‐vis spectroscopy and Arrhenius' theory showed the complex formation in the interaction of thymol and BSA. Negligible conformational changes in BSA by thymol were observed in fluorescence experiments, and the same results were also obtained from UV‐vis studies. Results of molecular docking indicated that the subdomain IA of BSA was the binding site for thymol.  相似文献

A thermodynamic study of the inclusion process between 2-chlorobenzophenone (2ClBP) and cyclomaltoheptaose (β-cyclodextrin, β-CD) was performed using UV–vis spectroscopy, reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), and molecular modeling (PM6). Spectrophotometric measurements in aqueous solutions were performed at different temperatures. The stoichiometry of the complex is 1:1 and its apparent formation constant (Kc) is 3846 M−1 at 30 °C. Temperature dependence of Kc values revealed that both enthalpy (ΔH° = −10.58 kJ/mol) and entropy changes (ΔS° = 33.76 J/K mol) are favorable for the inclusion process in an aqueous medium. Encapsulation was also investigated using RP-HPLC (C18 column) with different mobile-phase compositions, to which β-CD was added. The apparent formation constants in MeOH–H2O (KF) were dependent of the proportion of the mobile phase employed (50:50, 55:45, 60:40 and 65:35, v/v). The KF values were 419 M−1 (50% MeOH) and 166 M−1 (65% MeOH) at 30 °C. The thermodynamic parameters of the complex in an aqueous MeOH medium indicated that this process is largely driven by enthalpy change (ΔH° = −27.25 kJ/mol and ΔS° = −45.12 J/K mol). The results of the study carried out with the PM6 semiempirical method showed that the energetically most favorable structure for the formation of the complex is the ‘head up’ orientation.  相似文献

It was previously shown that the catalytic subunit of the plant toxin viscumin induces aggregation of small unilamellar liposomes and this process is inhibited by the mab_TA7 monoclonal antibody produced to the denatured catalytic subunit of viscumin (Agapov, I.I. et al., FEBS Lett., 1999, vol. 464, p. 63). The interaction of the synthetic F101–T105 and A96–T105 fragments of the viscumin catalytic subunit with the mab_TA7 monoclonal antibody was studied by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Results of this study demonstrated that only the A96–T105 fragment is capable of binding to mab_TA7. A nuclear Overhauser effect observed in the antigen–antibody complex and registered on the resonances of the free peptide transferred from the free state to the antibody-bound state was analyzed, the mab_TA7 antigen determinant (H99–T105) was identified, and its conformation and orientation within the complex with the antibody were determined.  相似文献

The binding of 2′-deoxyuridine to human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy in combination with molecular modeling under simulation of physiological conditions. The quenching mechanism was suggested to be static according to the fluorescence measurement. The thermodynamic parameters: enthalpy change (ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS) were calculated to be −18.87 kJ/mol and 24.00 J/(mol K) according to the Vant’Hoff equation. These data suggest that hydrophobic interactions are the predominant intermolecular forces stabilizing the complex. Experimental results are in agreement with the results obtained by molecular modeling study. In addition, the effects of common ions on the binding constants were also studied at room temperature.  相似文献

Three sodium salts of (2E)‐3‐(4'‐halophenyl)prop‐2‐enoyl sulfachloropyrazine (CCSCP) were synthesized and their structures were determined by 1H and 13C NMR, LC‐MS and IR. The binding properties between CCSCPs and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied using fluorescence spectroscopy in combination with UV–vis absorbance spectroscopy. The results indicate that the fluorescence quenching mechanisms between BSA and CCSCPs were static quenching at low concentrations of CCSCPs or combined quenching (static and dynamic) at higher CCSCP concentrations of 298, 303 and 308 K. The binding constants, binding sites and corresponding thermodynamic parameters (ΔH, ΔS, ΔG) were calculated at different temperatures. All ΔG values were negative, which revealed that the binding processes were spontaneous. Although all CCSCPs had negative ΔH and positive ΔS, the contributions of ΔH and ΔS to ΔG values were different. When the 4'‐substituent was fluorine or chlorine, van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonds were the main interaction forces. However, when the halogen was bromine, ionic interaction and proton transfer controlled the overall energetics. The binding distances between CCSCPs and BSA were determined using the Förster non‐radiation energy transfer theory and the effects of CCSCPs on the conformation of BSA were analyzed by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy.

The binding of bovine serum albumin (BSA) to ethambutol (EMB) was investigated using spectroscopic methods, viz., fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), ultraviolet (UV)/vis absorption and cyclic voltammetry techniques. Spectroscopic analysis of the emission quenching at different temperatures revealed that the quenching mechanism of serum albumin by EMB is static, which was also confirmed by lifetime measurements. The number of binding sites, n, and binding constant, K, were obtained at various temperatures. The distance, r, between EMB and the protein was evaluated according to the Förster energy transfer theory. Based on displacement experiments using site probes, viz., warfarin, ibuprofen and digitoxin, the site of binding of EMB in BSA was proposed to be Sudlow's site I. The effect of EMB on the conformation of BSA was analyzed by using synchronous fluorescence spectra (SFS) and 3D fluorescence spectra. The results of fluorescence, UV/vis absorption and FTIR spectra showed that the conformation of BSA was changed in the presence of EMB. The thermodynamic parameters including enthalpy change (ΔH0), entropy change (ΔS0) and free energy change (ΔG0) for BSA–EMB were calculated according to the van't Hoff equation and are discussed.  相似文献

A methodological study has been made with a syringe titration unit attached to an LKB batch microcalorimeter. The presicion and accuracy of the instrument assembly have been evaluated by neutralization reactions and by dilution of sucrose solutions. As an example, heat quantities on the order of 10 mJ accompanying the addition of 10 μl titrant solution could be determined with an accuracy of better than 1%. A stepwise titration procedure was used to characterize the binding of indole-3-propionic acid to α-chymotrypsin. The following thermodynamic data were obtained (25°C, acetate buffer, pH 5.80): ΔG0 = ?18.46±0.17 kJ·mol?1, ΔH0 = ?15.26±0.20 kJ·mol?1, ΔS0 = 10.85±1.21 JK?·mol?1.  相似文献

The interactions between human serum albumin (HSA) and fluphenazine (FPZ) in the presence or absence of rutin or quercetin were studied by fluorescence, absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and molecular modeling. The results showed that the fluorescence quenching mechanism was static quenching by the formation of an HSA–FPZ complex. Entropy change (ΔS 0) and enthalpy change (ΔH 0) values were 68.42 J/(mol? K) and ?4.637 kJ/mol, respectively, which indicated that hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds played major roles in the acting forces. The interaction process was spontaneous because the Gibbs free energy change (ΔG 0) values were negative. The results of competitive experiments demonstrated that FPZ was mainly located within HSA site I (sub‐domain IIA). Molecular docking results were in agreement with the experimental conclusions of the thermodynamic parameters and competition experiments. Competitive binding to HSA between flavonoids and FPZ decreased the association constants and increased the binding distances of FPZ binding to HSA. The results of absorption, synchronous fluorescence, three‐dimensional fluorescence, and CD spectra showed that the binding of FPZ to HSA caused conformational changes in HSA and simultaneous effects of FPZ and flavonoids induced further HSA conformational changes.  相似文献

This paper describes the thermodynamic behavior of gels of deoxyhemoglobin S. The solubility of the protein with respect to assembled hemoglobin fibers has been measured using a sedimentation technique. The solubility in 0.15 m-potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.15) is found to decrease with increasing temperature, attain a minimum value of 0.16 g cm?3 at 37 °C, and then increase at higher temperatures. The amount of polymer present at various hemoglobin concentrations and temperatures is presented as part of a phase diagram that may be useful for the calibration of other measurement techniques. The effects of varying pH and urea concentration upon the solubility have also been studied.The heat absorption accompanying gelation has been measured by scanning calorimetry. Using sedimentation data on the amount of polymer formed, molar enthalpy changes are obtained. There is a large negative heat capacity change of ? 197 cal deg. mol?1 and ΔH = 0 near 37 °C. Calorimetric molar enthalpy changes are found to agree with those calculated from the temperature dependence of the solubility by the van't Hoff equation.Our previous two-phase, two-component thermodynamic model of gelation is extended to include the effects of solution non-ideality. A large contribution to the activity of the hemoglobin in the solution phase results from the geometric effect of excluded volume. Incorporating solution phase non-ideality permits the calculation of standard state thermodynamic quantities for the gelation process at 37 °C: ΔGO ? ?3 k cal mol?1, ΔHO ~ 0, ΔSO ~ 10 cal deg.?1 mol?1. The excluded volume effect is also capable of explaining observations of the minimum gelling concentrations of hemoglobin mixtures containing deoxyhemoglobin S without requiring copolymerization of the non-S hemoglobin.  相似文献

The interaction of pepsin with daidzein (Dai) or genistein (Gen) was investigated using spectroscopic techniques under simulated physiological conditions. Dai and Gen can quench the fluorescence of pepsin and the quenching mechanism was a static process. The binding site number n and apparent binding constant K were measured at different temperatures. The thermodynamic parameters ΔΗ, ΔG and ΔS were calculated. The results indicated that van der Waals forces and hydrogen bond formation played major roles in the interaction of Dai or Gen with pepsin. The binding distance between pepsin and Dai or Gen was calculated according to energy transfer theory. The results of synchronous fluorescence spectra showed that the microenvironment and conformation of pepsin were changed. UV absorption and 3D fluorescence spectra showed that the binding interaction disturbed the microenvironment of amino acid residues and induced conformational changes in pepsin. Molecular docking results showed that Dai and Gen entered into the hydrophobic cavity of pepsin and two hydrogen bonds formed between Dai or Gen and pepsin. The results demonstrated that the interaction behavior between Dai and Gen with pepsin was slightly different, which denoted that the 5‐hydroxyl group of Gen, to a certain extent, had an effect on ligand binding to proteins.

The binding of [Dy(dmp)2Cl3(OH2)], where dmp is 2,9-dimethyl 1,10-phenanthroline, with Fish salmon DNA (FS-DNA) is investigated by absorption and emission spectroscopy, quenching studies, salt dependent, and gel electrophoresis. The binding constant (Kb) of the interaction is calculated as (1.27 ± .05) × 105 M?1 from absorption spectral titration data. The Stern–Volmer constant (KSV), thermodynamic parameters involves ΔG°, ?H°, and ?S° are calculated by fluorescent data and Van’t Hoff equation. The thermodynamic studies show that the reaction for the binding of the complex with FS-DNA is endothermic and entropically driven (Δ > 0, ΔH° > 0). The effect of the complex concentration on FS-DNA cleavage reactions is also investigated by gel electrophoresis. Furthermore, the Dy(III) complex has been screened for its antibacterial activity. The experimental results suggest that the Dy(III) complex binds significantly to FS-DNA by hydrophobic groove binding mode and the complex has more efficient antibacterial activity compared to its metal salt.  相似文献

The interaction between strictosamide (STM) and human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy, synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy, three‐dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet‐visible absorption spectroscopy, circular dichroism spectroscopy and molecular modeling under physiological pH 7.4. STM effectively quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA via static quenching. The binding site number n and apparent binding constant Ka were determined at different temperatures by fluorescence quenching. The thermodynamic parameters, enthalpy change (ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS) for the reaction were calculated as ?3.01 kJ/mol and 77.75 J/mol per K, respectively, which suggested that the hydrophobic force played major roles in stabilizing the HSA–STM complex. The distance r between donor and acceptor was obtained to be 4.10 nm according to Förster's theory. After the addition of STM, the synchronous fluorescence and three‐dimensional fluorescence spectral results showed that the hydrophobicity of amino acid residues increased and the circular dichroism spectral results showed that the α‐helix content of HSA decreased (from 61.48% to 57.73%). These revealed that the microenvironment and conformation of HSA were changed in the binding reaction. Furthermore, the study of molecular modeling indicated that STM could bind to site I of HSA and the hydrophobic interaction was the major acting force, which was in agreement with the binding mode study.

The thermal stability of Taq DNA polymerase is well known, and is the basis for its use in PCR. A comparative thermodynamic characterization of the large fragment domains of Taq (Klentaq) and E. coli (Klenow) DNA polymerases has been performed by obtaining full Gibbs‐Helmholtz stability curves of the free energy of folding (ΔG) versus temperature. This analysis provides the temperature dependencies of the folding enthalpy and entropy (ΔH and ΔS), and the heat capacity (ΔCp) of folding. If increased or enhanced non‐covalent bonding in the native state is responsible for enhanced thermal stabilization of a protein, as is often proposed, then an enhanced favourable folding enthalpy should, in general, be observed for thermophilic proteins. However, for the KlenowKlentaq homologous pair, the folding enthalpy (ΔHfold) of Klentaq is considerably less favorable than that of Klenow at all temperatures. In contrast, it is found that Klentaq's extreme free energy of folding (ΔGfold) originates from a significantly reduced entropic penalty of folding (ΔSfold). Furthermore, the heat capacity changes upon folding are similar for Klenow and Klentaq. Along with this new data, comparable extended analysis of available thermodynamic data for 17 other mesophilic–thermophilic protein pairs (where enough applicable thermodynamic data exists) shows a similar pattern in seven of the 18 total systems. When analyzed with this approach, the more familiar “reduced ΔCp mechanism” for protein thermal stabilization (observed in a different six of the 18 systems) frequently manifests as a temperature dependent shift from enthalpy driven stabilization to a reduced‐entropic‐penalty model.

In this study, the interaction between human serum albumin (HSA) and a copper complex of carmoisine dye; [Cu(carmoisine)2(H2O)2], was studied in vitro using multi‐spectroscopic methods. It was found that the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA was quenched by the addition of the [Cu(carmoisine)2(H2O)2] complex and the quenching mechanism was considered as static quenching by formation of a [Cu(carmoisine)2(H2O)2]–HSA complex. The binding constant was about 104 M?1 at room temperature. The values of the calculated thermodynamic parameters (ΔH < 0 and ΔS > 0) suggested that both hydrogen bonds and the hydrophobic interactions were involved in the binding process. The site marker competitive experiments revealed that the binding of [Cu(carmoisine)2(H2O)2] to HSA primarily occurred in subdomain IIIA (site II) of HSA. The results of circular dichroism (CD) and UV–vis spectroscopy showed that the micro‐environment of amino acid residues and the conformation of HSA were changed after addition of the [Cu(carmoisine)2(H2O)2] complex. Finally, the binding of the [Cu(carmoisine)2(H2O)2] complex to HSA was modelled by a molecular docking method. Excellent agreement was obtained between the experimental and theoretical results with respect to the binding forces and binding constant.  相似文献

The binding modes of cepharanthine (CEPT) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum albumin (HSA) have been established by reproducing physiological conditions, which is very important to understand the pharmacokinetics and toxicity of CEPT. These spectral data were further analyzed by the multivariate curve resolution‐alternating least squares method. Moreover, the concentration profiles and pure spectra of three species (BSA/HSA, CEPT and CEPT–BSA/HSA) and the apparent equilibrium constants Kapp were evaluated. The experimental results showed that CEPT could quench the fluorescence intensity of BSA/HSA by a combined quenching (static and dynamic) procedure. The binding constant (K), the thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) and binding subdomain were measured, and indicated that CEPT could spontaneously bind to BSA/HSA on subdomain IIA through the hydrophobic interactions. The effect of CEPT on the secondary structure of proteins has been analyzed by circular dichroism, 3D fluorescence and Fourier transform infrared spectra. The binding distance between CEPT and tryptophan of BSA/HSA was 2.305/1.749 nm, which is based on the Förster resonance energy transfer theory. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

The interaction between the food colorant canthaxanthin (CA) and human serum albumin (HSA) in aqueous solution was explored by using fluorescence spectroscopy, three‐dimensional fluorescence spectra, synchronous fluorescence spectra, UV–vis absorbance spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD) spectra and molecular docking methods. The thermodynamic parameters calculated from fluorescence spectra data showed that CA could result in the HSA fluorescence quenching. From the KSV change with the temperature dependence, it was concluded that HSA fluorescence quenching triggered by CA is the static quenching and the number of binding sites is one. Furthermore, the secondary structure of HSA was changed with the addition of CA based on the results of synchronous fluorescence, three‐dimensional fluorescence and CD spectra. Hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces played key roles in the binding process of CA with HSA, which can be obtained from negative standard enthalpy (ΔH) and negative standard entropy (ΔS). Furthermore, the conclusions were certified by molecular docking studies and the binding mode was further analyzed with Discovery Studio. These conclusions can highlight the potential of the interaction mechanism of food additives and HSA.  相似文献
