We demonstrated that human serum albumin (HSA) patterns constructed in a solid substrate by using micro-contact printing (muCP) technique supported the deposition of phospholipid bilayer containing glycolipid, 10-tetradecyloxymethy-3,6,9,12-tetraoxahexacosyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranoside (PB1124). It is observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) that the obtained glycolipid patterns are well-defined, stable and can be used to recognize and immobilize Escherichia coli (E. coli). This strategy is promising to perform bacterial detection through solid surface recognition in a way of biosensors. 相似文献

Albumin is supposed to be the major antioxidant circulating in blood. This study examined the prevention of membrane lipid peroxidation by bovine serum albumin (BSA). Lipid peroxidation was induced by the exposing of enzymatically generated superoxide radicals to egg yolk phosphatidylcholine liposomes incorporating lipids with different charges in the presence of chelated iron catalysts. We used three kinds of Fe3+-chelates, which initiated reactions that were dependent on membrane charge: Fe3+-EDTA and Fe3+-EGTA catalyzed peroxidation in positively and negatively charged liposomes, respectively, and Fe3+-NTA, a renal carcinogen, catalyzed the reaction in liposomes of either charge. Fe3+-chelates initiated more lipid peroxidation in liposomes with increased zeta potentials, followed by an increase of their availability for the initiation of the reaction at the membrane surface. BSA inhibits lipid peroxidation by preventing the interaction of iron chelate with membranes, followed by a decrease of its availability in a charge-dependent manner depending on the iron-chelate concentration: one is accompanied and the other is unaccompanied by a change in the membrane charge. The inhibitory effect of BSA in the former at high concentrations of iron chelate would be attributed to its electrostatic binding with oppositely charged membranes. The inhibitory effect in the latter at low concentrations of iron chelate would be caused by BSA binding with iron chelates and keeping them away from membrane surface where lipid peroxidation is initiated. Although these results warrant further in vivo investigation, it was concluded that BSA inhibits membrane lipid peroxidation by decreasing the availability of iron for the initiation of membrane lipid peroxidation, in addition to trapping active oxygens and free radicals. 相似文献

In this work, the interaction of an anti‐HIV drug lamivudine and human serum albumin (HSA) was studied by multispectroscopic and molecular modeling methods. The fluorescence emission spectra showed that the fluorescence of HSA was quenched by lamivudine through static mechanism with HSA‐lamivudine complex produced at ground state. According to the binding equilibriums observed at 4 different temperatures, the number of binding site, binding constant, enthalpy change, entropy change, and Gibbs free energy change of the interaction were calculated. The results indicated that there was only 1 main binding site under present concentration condition, and then, the location of this binding site was ascertained by molecular probe experiments using warfarin and ibuprofen as site markers. The interaction was a spontaneous and exothermic process. Hydrogen bonds and van der Waals force were the major power that fixed lamivudine on Sudlow's site I in subdomain IIA of HSA molecule. The distance between donor and acceptor was determined by Förster's nonradiative fluorescence resonance energy transfer theory. Circular dichroism spectra exhibited the alteration of HSA's secondary structures. Molecular modeling investigation revealed the structure of HSA‐lamivudine complex, including the conformation of lamivudine in binding site, the amino residues close to lamivudine, and the interaction forces between receptor and ligand. The study may be beneficial to therapists in understanding the distribution of lamivudine in vivo and explaining its drug‐resistant mechanism in clinical diagnosis. 相似文献

One of the major bottlenecks in the determination of proteinstructures by NMR is in the evaluation of the data produced by theexperiments. An important step in this process is assignment, where thepeaks in the spectra are assigned to specific spins within specificresidues. In this paper, we discuss a spin system assignment tool based onpattern recognition techniques. This tool employs user-specified templatesto search for patterns of peaks in the original spectra; these patterns maycorrespond to side-chain or backbone fragments. Multiple spectra willnormally be searched simultaneously to reduce the impact of noise. Thesearch generates a preliminary list of putative assignments, which arefiltered by a set of heuristic algorithms to produce the final results list.Each result contains a set of chemical shift values plus information aboutthe peaks found. The results may be used as input for combinatorialroutines, such as sequential assignment procedures, in place of peak lists.Two examples are presented, in which (i) HCCH-COSY and -TOCSY spectra arescanned for side-chain spin systems; and (ii) backbone spin systems aredetected in a set of spectra comprising HNCA, HN(CO)CA, HNCO, HN(CA)CO,CBCANH and CBCA(CO)NH. 相似文献

- 1. 1. Evidence has been provided for the transfer of phosphatidyl[14C]choline and [3H]cholesterol between bovine serum albumin and cauda epididymal rat spermatozoa in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate medium, which can promote sperm capacitation.
- 2. 2. An analysis of the lipid composition in both albumin and spermatozoa revealed that phospholipid levels decreased in the protein and increased by roughly comparable amounts in sperm cells during incubation in vitro.
- 3. 3. Cholesterol (free + ester) increased in albumin and decreased in spermatozoa. Changes in the amount of esterified cholesterol were solely responsible for the increase associated with albumin, whereas whole sperm cell extracts showed a significant decline in free cholesterol.
- 4. 4. The composition of albumin-bound fatty acids did not alter appreciably as a result of incubation with spermatozoa.
- 5. 5. Rates of [14C]palmitic acid utilization by spermatozoa suggest that lipid synthesis accounted for less than 5% of the changes observed under the conditions of this study.
- 6. 6. These results are interpreted as broadly supporting our previous proposal that lipid exchange between albumin and sperm cells is implicated in sperm capacitation in vitro. Specifically, the results are compatible with the idea that a decreased cholesterol/phospholipid ratio in the sperm plasma membrane facilitates this transformation.

Understanding the mechanisms of peptide-induced membrane disorder is critical to the design of novel antimicrobial and cell-penetrating peptides. One means of quantifying local structure and order/disorder is through the orientational order parameter, typically obtained using various spectroscopic approaches. We report here on the use of an image-based means of tracking the order parameter in supported lipid bilayers during peptide-induced disordering. By coupling polarized total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy with in situ atomic force microscopy, it is now possible to track changes in order parameter associated with peptide binding and insertion, as well as lipid headgroup and acyl chain reordering, while simultaneously resolving molecular-scale topographical changes. Interactions between the model antimicrobial peptide, indolicidin, and its fluorescent analog, TAMRA-indolicidin, with model eukaryotic (DOPC:DSPC:cholesterol) and prokaryotic (DOPE/DOPG) membranes were tracked using the fluorescent lipid reporters, DiI-C20 and BODIPY-PC. Changes in the order parameter upon membrane binding and insertion provided insights into the orientation of the peptide and the role of membrane chemistry and composition on insertion dynamics and membrane restructuring. 相似文献

The adsorption process of bovine serum albumin (BSA) onto a stainless steel surface was investigated using the quartz crystal microbalance based on admittance analysis. The adhered mass change ?m increased with time as a result of contacting the BSA solution, and considerably long period (>2 h) was required for the attainment of the asymptotic values of ?m as well as dissipation factor ?D. The relation between ΔD and Δm suggested that the layer of adsorbed BSA molecules became stiffer with increasing time at higher BSA concentration. The relation between Δm after 2 h and the final BSA concentration was described well by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. However, the time course of Δm clearly deviated from the Langmuir adsorption model. The stretched exponential function model described the time course of Δm well although it was an empirical one. 相似文献

Separations of six dihydropyridine enantiomers on three commercially available cellulose‐based chiral stationary phases (Chiralcel OD‐RH, Chiralpak IB, and Chiralpak IC) were evaluated with high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The best enantioseparation of the six chiral drugs was obtained with a Chiralpak IC (250 × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 μm) column. Then the influence of the mobile phase including an alcohol‐modifying agent and alkaline additive on the enantioseparation were investigated and optimized. The optimal mobile phase conditions and maximum resolution for every analyte were as follows respectively: n‐hexane/isopropanol (85:15, v /v) for nimodipine (R = 5.80) and cinildilpine (R = 5.65); n‐hexane/isopropanol (92:8, v /v) for nicardipine (R = 1.76) and nisoldipine (R = 1.92); and n‐hexane/isopropanol/ethanol (97:2:1, v /v/v) for felodipine (R = 1.84) and lercanidipine (R = 1.47). Relative separation mechanisms are discussed based on the separation results, and indicate that the achiral parts in the analytes' structure showed an important influence on the separation of the chiral column. 相似文献
