Biophysical Study on the Interaction of Ceftriaxone Sodium with Bovine Serum Albumin Using Spectroscopic Methods

The interaction of ceftriaxone sodium (CS), a cephalosporin antibiotic, with the major transport protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), was investigated using different spectroscopic techniques such as fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD), and UV–vis spectroscopy. Values of binding parameters for BSA–CS interaction in terms of binding constant and number of binding sides were found to be 9.00 × 10³, 3.24 × 10³, and 2.30 × 10³ M^?1 at 281, 301, and 321 K, respectively. Thermodynamic analysis of the binding data obtained at different temperatures showed that the binding process was spontaneous and was primarily mediated by van der Waals force or hydrogen bonding. CS binding to BSA caused secondary structural alterations in the protein as revealed by CD results. The distance between CS and Trp of BSA was determined as 3.23 nm according to the Förster resonance energy transfer theory. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of N‐Acetyl‐L‐Cysteine‐Capped CdTe Quantum Dots on Bovine Serum Albumin and Bovine Hemoglobin: Isothermal Titration Calorimetry and Spectroscopic Investigations

The interactions of N‐acetyl‐L‐cysteine‐capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and bovine hemoglobin (BHb) were investigated by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), fluorescence, synchronous fluorescence, fluorescence lifetime, ultraviolet–visible absorption, and circular dichroism techniques. Fluorescence data of BSA–QDs and BHb–QDs revealed that the quenching was static in every system. While CdTe QDs changed the microenvironment of tryptophan in BHb, the microenvironment of BSA kept unchanged. Adding CdTe QDs affected the skeleton and secondary structure of the protein (BSA and BHb). The ITC results indicated that the interaction between the protein (BSA and BHb) and QDs‐612 was spontaneous and the predominant force was hydrophobic interaction. In addition, the binding constants were determined to be 1.19 × 10⁵ L mol^?1 (BSA–QDs) and 2.19 × 10⁵ L mol^?1 (BHb–QDs) at 298 K. From these results, we conclude that CdTe QDs have a larger impact on the structure of BHb than BSA.     

Binding of Paeonol to Human Serum Albumin: A Hybrid Spectroscopic Approach and Conformational Study

The purpose of this study was to elucidate the binding of paeonol to human serum albumin (HSA) through spectroscopic methods. The fluorescence quenching of HSA by paeonol was a result of the formation of the HSA–paeonol complex with low binding affinity (K = 4.45 × 10³ M^?1 at 298 K). Thermodynamic parameters (ΔG^○ = –2.08 × 10⁴ J·mol^?1, ΔS^○ = 77.9 J·mol^?1·K^?1, ΔH^○ = 2.41 × 10³ J·mol^?1, k_q = 9.67 × 10¹² M^?1·s^?1) revealed that paeonol mainly binds HSA through hydrophobic force following a static quenching mode. The binding distance was estimated to be 1.91 nm by fluorescence resonant energy transfer. The conformation of HSA was changed and aggregates were formed in the presence of paeonol, revealed by synchronous fluorescence, circular dichroism, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, three‐dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy, and resonance light scattering results.

Underlying the Mechanism of Vancomycin and Human Serum Albumin Interaction: A Biophysical Study

In the present study, the binding mechanism of vancomycin with human serum albumin (HSA) was determined. Upon addition of vancomycin to HSA, the fluorescence emission was quenched and the binding constant of vancomycin with HSA was found to be 6.05 × 10³ M^?1 at 295 K, which corresponds to –2.16 × 10⁴ J·mol^?1 of free energy. The conformation of HSA was altered upon binding of vancomycin with a decrease in α helix and an increase in β sheets and random coils, suggesting partial unfolding of the secondary structure. Molecular docking experiments found that vancomycin binds strongly with HSA at the hydrophobic pocket through hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions. An average binding distance of 4.71 nm has been determined on the basis of the Förster resonance energy theory. It was demonstrated that vancomycin binding to HSA causes protein structural changes. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Molecular Mobility and Oxygen Permeability in Amorphous Bovine Serum Albumin Films

We have used phosphorescence from the xanthene probe erythrosin B to characterize the molecular mobility and oxygen permeability as a function of temperature in amorphous solid bovine serum albumin (BSA) films. Analysis of the emission spectrum using a lognormal fitting function provided information on how temperature modulates the emission peak frequency and bandwidth (full width at half maximum). The peak frequency decreased gradually at low and more steeply at high temperature, whereas the bandwidth increased gradually at low and more steeply at high temperature, both changes indicating a softening of the protein matrix at ∼60°C. Phosphorescence intensity decay transients were well fit using a stretched exponential decay function at all temperatures. Lifetimes decreased gradually at low and more steeply at high temperature; Arrhenius analysis of the rate constant for nonradiative collisional quenching indicated an increase in quenching indicative of matrix softening at ∼70°C. The oxygen quenching rate was calculated from a comparison of emission lifetimes in the presence and absence of oxygen. This rate varied linearly with the collisional quenching rate over nearly three orders of magnitude, suggesting that the more global motions that control oxygen translational diffusion are modulated by more local motions that influence collisional quenching of erythrosin. The emission spectrum shifted to higher energy as a function of time following excitation, whereas the phosphorescence lifetime decreased with increasing emission wavelength; both behaviors provided strong evidence for distinct sites within the protein matrix varying in molecular mobility. These results enrich our molecular understanding of the intrinsic mobility of proteins within the amorphous solid phase, provide evidence for a dynamic transition within solid BSA, and provide insight into the molecular mechanisms controlling oxygen diffusion.     

Insights into In Vitro Binding of Parecoxib to Human Serum Albumin by Spectroscopic Methods

Herein, we report the effect of parecoxib on the structure and function of human serum albumin (HSA) by using fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD), Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR), three‐dimensional (3D) fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular docking techniques. The Stern–Volmer quenching constants K_SV and the corresponding thermodynamic parameters ΔH, ΔG, and ΔS have been estimated by the fluorescence quenching method. The results indicated that parecoxib binds spontaneously with HSA through van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds with binding constant of 3.45 × 10⁴ M^?1 at 298 K. It can be seen from far‐UV CD spectra that the α‐helical network of HSA is disrupted and its content decreases from 60.5% to 49.6% at drug:protein = 10:1. Protein tertiary structural alterations induced by parecoxib were also confirmed by FTIR and 3D fluorescence spectroscopy. The molecular docking study indicated that parecoxib is embedded into the hydrophobic pocket of HSA.     

Interactions of Chromium (III) and Chromium (VI) with Bovine Serum Albumin Studied by UV Spectroscopy,Circular Dichroism,and Fluorimetry

In the present work, the interactions of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with chromium (III) chloride, potassium dichromate, and chromate were studied by fluorescence, circular dichroism, and UV–vis absorbance spectroscopy. Fluorescence quenching of BSA by chromium (III) was found to be a dynamic process in the beginning, turning static at later stages. Spectroscopic data show that both dichromate and chromate bind in similar electrostatic fashion to BSA and does not follow the fluorescence quenching observation for chromium (III).     

Flow cytometry: a promising technique for the study of silicone oil-induced particulate formation in protein formulations

Subvisible particles in formulations intended for parenteral administration are of concern in the biopharmaceutical industry. However, monitoring and control of subvisible particulates can be complicated by formulation components, such as the silicone oil used for the lubrication of prefilled syringes, and it is difficult to differentiate microdroplets of silicone oil from particles formed by aggregated protein. In this study, we demonstrate the ability of flow cytometry to resolve mixtures comprising subvisible bovine serum albumin (BSA) aggregate particles and silicone oil emulsion droplets with adsorbed BSA. Flow cytometry was also used to investigate the effects of silicone oil emulsions on the stability of BSA, lysozyme, abatacept, and trastuzumab formulations containing surfactant, sodium chloride, or sucrose. To aid in particle characterization, the fluorescence detection capabilities of flow cytometry were exploited by staining silicone oil with BODIPY 493/503 and model proteins with Alexa Fluor 647. Flow cytometric analyses revealed that silicone oil emulsions induced the loss of soluble protein via protein adsorption onto the silicone oil droplet surface. The addition of surfactant prevented protein from adsorbing onto the surface of silicone oil droplets. There was minimal formation of homogeneous protein aggregates due to exposure to silicone oil droplets, although oil droplets with surface-adsorbed trastuzumab exhibited flocculation. The results of this study demonstrate the utility of flow cytometry as an analytical tool for monitoring the effects of subvisible silicone oil droplets on the stability of protein formulations.     

Is the Sudlow site I of human serum albumin more generous to adopt prospective anti-cancer bioorganic compound than that of bovine: A combined spectroscopic and docking simulation approach

A comparative biophysical study on the individual conformational adaptation embraced by two homologous serum albumins (SA) (bovine and human) towards a potential anticancer bioorganic compound 2-(6-chlorobenzo[d] thiazol-2-yl)-1H-benzo[de] isoquinoline-1,3(2H)- dione (CBIQD) is apparent from the discrimination in binding behavior and the ensuing consequences accomplished by combined in vitro optical spectroscopy, in silico molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The Sudlow site I of HSA although anion receptive, harbors neutral CBIQD in Sudlow site I (subdomain IIA, close to Trp) of HSA, while in BSA its prefers to snugly fit into Sudlow site II (subdomain IIIA, close to Tyr). Based on discernable diminution of HSA mean fluorescence lifetime as a function of biluminophore concentration, facile occurrence of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is substantiated as the probable quenching mechanism accompanied by structural deformations in the protein ensemble. CBIQD establishes itself within HSA close to Trp214, and consequently reduces the micropolarity of the cybotactic environment that is predominantly constituted by hydrophobic amino acid residues. The stronger association of CBIQD with HSA encourages an allosteric modulation leading to slight deformation in its secondary structure whereas for BSA the association is comparatively weaker. Sudlow site I of HSA is capable to embrace a favorable conformation like malleable gold to provide room for incoming CBIQD, whereas for BSA it behaves more like rigid cast-iron which does not admit any change thus forcing CBIQD to occupy an altogether different binding location i.e. the Sudlow site II. The anticancer CBIQD is found to be stable within the HSA scaffold as vindicated by root mean square deviation (RMSD) and root mean square fluctuation (RMSF) obtained by MD simulation. A competitively inhibited esterase-like activity of HSA upon CBIQD binding to Lys199 and Arg257 residues, plausibly envisions that similar naphthalimide based prodrugs, bearing ester functionality, can be particularly activated by Sudlow site I of HSA. The consolidated spectroscopic research described herein may encourage design of naphthalimide based pro-drugs for effective in vivo biodistribution using HSA-based drug delivery systems.
