牛血清白蛋白对小鼠原核期胚胎玻璃化冷冻的影响

以小鼠原核期胚胎为对象,以胚胎的存活率、卵裂率、囊胚率以及囊胚细胞数作为检测指标,在M2液的基础上添加8种浓度(0,2,4,8,16,32,64,96mg/mL)牛血清白蛋白(BSA)配置防冻液,探讨防冻液和玻璃化冷冻后对胚胎发育的影响。BSA防冻液对胚胎发育影响的实验结果表明,8个浓度组间以及与对照组间胚胎的卵裂率、囊胚率以及囊胚细胞数无显著差异(P>0.05),说明在防冻液中加入一定浓度的BSA对小鼠胚胎无毒性作用。防冻液经玻璃化冷冻后对胚胎发育影响的实验表明,8个浓度组间冷冻胚胎复苏后的存活率、卵裂率、囊胚率及囊胚细胞数无显著差异(P>0.05)。表明BSA在这种防冻液中没有明显的保护作用。从经济、实用、生物安全角度考虑,不支持在玻璃化防冻液中添加BSA。     

Radical-Induced Damage to Bovine Serum Albumin: Role of the Cysteine Residue

The reactions of cerium(IV) and the hydroxyl radical [generated from iron(ii)/H₂O₂] with bovine serum albumin (BSA) have been investigated by EPR spin trapping. With the former reagent a protein-derived thiyl radical is selectively generated; this has been characterized via the anisotropic EPR spectra observed on reaction of this radical with the spin trap DMPO. Blocking of the thiol group results in the loss of this species and the detection of a peroxyl radical, believed to be formed by reaction of oxygen with initially-generated, but undetected, carbon-centred radicals from aromatic amino acids. Experiments with a second spin trap (DBNBS) confirm the formation of these carbon-centred species and suggest that damage can be transferred from the thiol group to carbon sites in the protein. A similar transfer pathway can be observed when hydroxyl radicals react with BSA.

Further experiments demonstrate that the reverse process can also occur: when hydroxyl radicals react with BSA, the thiol group appears to act as a radical sink and protects the protein from denaturation and fragmentation through the transfer of damage from a carbon site to the thiol group. Thiol-blocked BSA is shown to be more susceptible to damage than the native protein in both direct EPR experiments and enzyme digestion studies. Oxygen has a similar effect, with more rapid fragmentation detected in its presence than its absence.

Phosphorylcholine Group-immobilized Surface Prepared on Polydimethylsiloxane Membrane by In Situ Reaction for Its Reduced Biofouling

To reduce interactions between biological molecules and the surface of microchip devices including the microchip, which should be conducted to improve sensitivity, reactivity, and the typical phospholipid polar group, the phosphorylcholine group-immobilized surfaces were prepared. The surface modification of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) was performed by in situ reaction during curing by cross-linking the PDMS prepolymers. Since it is known that 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) facilitates the preparation of biomedical polymers with excellent biocompatibility and antithrombogenicity, it was used as the reactant for surface modification. The MPC was coated on the glass substrate, and two-liquid-type PDMS prepolymers were then applied. During the curing process of the vinyl groups of poly(dimetylsiloxane-co-methylsiloxane) and poly(dimethylsiloxane-co-methylvinylsiloxane), the methacrylate group in MPC was attached onto the PDMS surface via a hydrosilyl group. Analysis of the surface characteristics by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and measurement of the surface contact angle revealed that the introduction of the phosphorylcholine group in the MPC unit on the surface induced hydrophilicity at the surface. Further, protein adsorption on the surface decreased with an increase in the number of phosphorylcholine groups. Based on these results, we concluded that the construction of the phosphorylcholine group-enriched surface on the PDMS substrate could be achieved by immobilization of MPC, and it may facilitate fabrication of biomedical devices, particularly microfluidic devices.

Effect of Sugars on Rabbit Serum Albumin Stability and Induction of Secondary Structure

The effect of sugars (sucrose, maltose, and glucose) on the thermal and chemical denaturation of rabbit serum albumin (RSA) has been examined by viscosity and far UV circular dichroism measurements. The viscosity measurements indicate a change in the reduced viscosity from 4.18 to 16.23 ml/g in the temperature range from 20 to 90°C. The T _m value for RSA obtained by viscosity measurements in the absence of sugar was found to be 63.2°C, but this value increased to 68.4, 70.3, and 73.2°C in the presence of 0.5 M sucrose, 0.5 M glucose, and 0.5 M maltose, respectively. Further, the stability of RSA in the presence of 0.5 M sugars was also investigated by measuring the mean residue ellipticity at 222 nm (MRE₂₂₂) using chemical (0-6 M guanidine hydrochloride) and thermal (20-90°C) transition processes. At the midpoint of the chemical denaturation, the increase in the MRE values at 222 nm in the presence of 0.5 M sugars were of the same order as the increase in the T _m values, i.e., maltose > glucose > sucrose. Interestingly, a mixture of 0.25 M glucose and 0.25 M fructose showed a cumulative effect on the thermal as well as chemical stability as compared to 0.5 M sucrose alone. In the case of both thermal and chemical denaturation, there was an increase in the MRE₂₂₂ values upon addition of various sugars, this indicating induction of secondary structure in the protein.     

Function of the High Concentration Alcohol-producing Factor

By use of the chemically defined synthetic medium, the formation of high concentration of alcohol, reaching 20–21 percent, was accomplished by Saccharomyces sake, at 20°C within 20 days, under a gradual addition of sucrose. Unsaturated fatty acid-containing phospholipid- macromolecule (albumin or methylcellulose) complex was the essential structure for the high concentration alcohol-producing factor. Unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid, incorporated to the yeast cells grown anaerobically in the statical fermentation test from the koji mold phosphatidylcholine-methylcellulose complex. These data show that the formation of a high concentration of alcohol in sake mash is related to the lipid metabolism of the yeasts.     

Effect of Chromatographic Conditions on Enantioseparation of Bovine Serum Albumin Chiral Stationary Phase in HPLC and Thermodynamic Studies

Twelve chiral compounds were enantiomerically resolved on bovine serum albumin chiral stationary phase (BSA‐CSP) by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in reversed‐phase modes. Chromatographic conditions such as mobile phase pH, the percentage of organic modifier, and concentration of analyte were optimized for separation of enantiomers. For N‐(2, 4‐dinitrophenyl)‐serine (DNP‐ser), the retention factors (k) greatly increase from 0.81 to 6.23 as the pH decreasing from 7.21 to 5.14, and the resolution factor (R_s) exhibited a similar increasing trend (from 0 to 1.34). More interestingly, the retention factors for N‐(2, 4‐dinitrophenyl)‐proline (DNP‐pro) decrease along with increasing 1‐propanol in mobile phase (3%, 5%, 7% and 9% by volume), whereas the resolution factor shows an upward trend (from 0.96 to 2.04). Moreover, chiral recognition mechanisms for chiral analytes were further investigated through thermodynamic methods. Chirality 25:487–492, 2013. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

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.

Effect of Acetylation of Ovalbumin on Its Adsorption Behavior at Solid/Liquid Interface

This paper reports the effect of modification of lysine residues on the adsorption of ovalbumin at alumina/water interface. It has been shown that the pH dependence of the adsorption changes on acetylation of lysine. Thus at pH 7.6 acetylated ovalbumin does not show any affinity for alumina surface although unmodified protein does. It seems that although electrostatic interactions are operative, surface unfolding of proteins and surface hydrophobicity of protein also control the adsorption of ovalbumin onto alumina.     

Adsorption of non-membrane proteins on the surface of model phospholipid membranes

1. Two new methods are proposed for enhancement of the binding of hydrophilic proteins by liposomes. 2. An alkylating derivative of phosphatidic acid has been obtained by its reaction with N,N,N′-tris(2-chloroethyl)-N′- (p-formylphenyl)propylene-1,3-diamine. The alkylating activity of this derivative is very low due to the electron-acceptor effect of the formyl residue. Phosphatidylcholine liposomes which contain this alkylating derivative in the lipid bilayer may be obtained. The compound residing in the outer monolayer may be reduced by NaBH₄. Upon reduction, the formyl residue is transformed into a hydroxymethyl residue. Therefore, the alkylating group of the compound is activated, and proteins may be attached covalently to the outer monolayer by alkylation with such chemically reactive liposomes. 3. Reaction of alkylating liposomes with myoglobin results in covalent binding of this hydrophilic protein. Complement-mediated leakage of such myoglobin-carrying liposomes may be induced by antibodies against myoglobin. 4. Modification of hydrophilic proteins with dansyl chloride results, even at small extents of modification, in a dramatic increase of the affinity of such proteins to phosphatidylcholine liposomes.     

The Effect of Manganese on the Reconstitution of Partial Metallocluster-deficient Nitrogenase Molybdenum-Iron Protein

By treating the reduced MoFe protein of nitrogenase from Azotobacter vinelandii with O-phenanthroline (O-phen) and O2, inactive MoFe protein which was partialy deficient in both P-cluster and FeMoco could be obtained. After incubating the inactive protein with a reconstituent solution containing KMnO4, ferric homocitrate, Na2S and dithiothreitol, a reconstituted protein could be obtained. The absorption spectrum and C2H2, H+ and N2 reduction activity of the reconstituted protein could be well restored to the state of the reduced MoFe protein. However, the α-helix and CD spectrum at 380—550 nm and at 620—670 nm of the reconstituted protein were somewhat different from those of the reduced MoFe protein. The results showed that: (1) the reconstituted protein was composed of the assembled protein which might be a MnFe protein due to the reconstitution of the metalloclusterdeficient MoFe protein with Mn-containing solution and MoFe protein in which metalloclusters were still intact after the treatment with O-phen and O2; (2) It might be possible that the MnFe protein and MoFe protein were similar in the ability of nitrogen fixation, but were somewhat different in the structure from each other.     

Study on the Adsorption of Cr3+ by Peanut Shell: Adsorption Kinetics,Thermodynamics, and Isotherm Properties

The pollution of heavy metals in soil to the environment is becoming more and more serious, resulting in the reduction of crop production and the occurrence of medical accidents. In order to remove heavy metal ions from soil and reduce the harm of heavy metals to the environment, modified peanut shell was used to adsorb Cr³⁺ in this article. The effects of different adsorption conditions on the adsorption rate and adsorption capacity of Cr³⁺ on ZnCl₂ modified peanut shell were studied, the best adsorption conditions were explored, and the relationship of kinetics, thermodynamics and adsorption isotherm properties of adsorption process were explored. The results showed that the optimum adsorption pH value, dosage, initial concentration, adsorption temperature and contact time of ZnCl₂ modified peanut shell were 2.5, 2.5 g/L, 75 μg/mL, 25 °C and 40 min, respectively. The prepared materials were characterized and analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyzer. It was concluded that the modified peanut shell had a good adsorption capacity to Cr³⁺. The kinetic study showed that the adsorption process of Cr³⁺ on peanut shell modified by zinc chloride was in accordance with the quasi-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption process belonged to exothermic reaction and belonged to spontaneous reaction process. In summary, it is proved that zinc chloride modified peanut shell can efficiently adsorb Cr³⁺, which can be used for the treatment of heavy metal wastes in industry, which is beneficial to environmental protection and avoid heavy metal pollution.     

不同pH值与电位耦合对牛血清白蛋白包被酒石酸长春瑞滨纳米粒制备工艺的影响

在反溶剂法制备纳米粒过程中,pH值在一定程度上会对其产生影响。本文通过在不同酸碱环境下运用反溶剂法制备牛血清白蛋白包被酒石酸长春瑞滨纳米粒,进而借助于电位耦合作用来研究纳米粒制备工艺。研究结果表明:当pH=4.5至7.5时,酒石酸长春瑞滨和牛血清白蛋白带有异种电荷,而当pH=2.5,3.5,8.5,9.5时它们均带有同种电荷。当pH=7.5时,牛血清白蛋白带有负电荷即-8.52 mV,酒石酸长春瑞滨带有正电荷即+4.48mV。此时得到牛血清白蛋白包被酒石酸长春瑞滨纳米粒粒径为193.3 nm,Zeta电位为-30.86 mV,而且在该pH下对纳米粒制备工艺进行了优化,最终它的载药量和包封率达到了45.6%和90.6%。     

Decreasing Effect of Chitosan on the Apparent Fat Digestibility by Rats Fed on a High-fat Diet

We investigated the effects of various dietary fibers or their likenesses on the apparent fat digestibility by rats fed on a high-fat diet. Each of 23 different fibers was added at 5% (w/w) to a purified diet containing 20% (w/w) corn oil. The rats were fed these diets for 2 weeks, and the feces were collected from each animal during the last 3 days. When compared with cellulose (control), 10 of the tested fibers significantly increased the fecal lipid excretion. Among these fibers, chitosan markedly increased the fecal lipid excretion and reduced the apparent fat digestibility to about a half relative to the control. The apparent protein digestibility was not greatly affected by chitosan. The fatty acid composition of the fecal lipids closely reflected that of the dietary fat. These results suggest that chitosan has potency for interfering with fat digestion and absorption in the intestinal tract, and for facilitating the excretion of dietary fat into the feces.

Cations as Mediators of the Adsorption of Nucleic Acids on Clay Surfaces in Prebiotic Environments

Monovalent ([Na⁺] > 10 mM) and divalent ([Ca²⁺], [Mg²⁺] > 1.0 mM) cations induced the precipitationof nucleic acid molecules. In the presence of clay minerals (montmorillonite and kaolinite), there was adsorption instead of precipitation. The cation concentration needed for adsorption depended on both the valence of the cations and the chemical nature of the nucleic acid molecules. Double-stranded nucleic acids needed higher cation concentrations than single-stranded ones to be adsorbed to the same extent on clay. Divalent cations were more efficient than monovalent ones in mediating adsorption. Adsorption to the clay occurred only when both nucleic acids and cations were present. However, once the complexes were formed, the cations could not be removed from the system by washing, indicating that they are directly involved in the association between nucleic acids and mineral surfaces.These observations indicate that cations take part directly in the formation of nucleic acid-clay complexes, acting as a `bridge' between the negative charges on the mineral surface and those of the phosphate groups of the genetic polymer. The relatively low cation concentrations needed for adsorption and the ubiquitous presence of clay minerals in the environment suggest that the adsorption of nucleic acids on mineral surfaces could have taken place in prebiotic habitats. This may have played an important role in the formation and preservation of nucleic acids and/or their precursor polymers.     

Influence of Extracellular Polymeric Substances on the Adsorption of Cadmium onto Three Bacterial Species

In this study, we measured the effect of EPS on Cd and proton adsorption behaviors by measuring the extent of adsorption onto biomass with and without the EPS removed via a cation exchange resin. We conducted both Cd adsorption experiments and potentiometric titrations of biomass using three common bacterial species: one Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis) and two Gram-negative (Shewanella oneidensis, Pseudomonas putida) species. The Cd adsorption experiments were conducted as a function of metal loading in order to probe whether environmentally-low metal loadings lead to different adsorption mechanisms and roles for EPS than the higher metal loadings of most previous adsorption studies. We suspended each biomass sample in a solution of dissolved Cd in 0.01?M NaClO₄ at metal loadings of 1, 2, 5, and 74?μmol/g. Surface complexation modeling (SCM) was used to determine stability constants for the important Cd-bacteria complexes, and the effect of metal loading on the resulting calculated stability constant values was determined.

In general, the measured bulk Cd adsorption behavior is unaffected by EPS removal. However, our potentiometric titration results suggest that EPS removal does alter the distribution of site types, but not the mass-normalized total site concentration within the biomass. SCM suggests that high affinity sulfhydryl sites control Cd binding under low metal loading conditions for B. subtilis and P. putida, and that sulfhydryl sites are present both on the cells and within the EPS for these species. Conversely, the SCM results suggest that Cd-sulfhydryl binding is un-important on the EPS of S. oneidensis.     

Adsorption of Ni2+ on the surface of molecularly imprinted adsorbent from Penicillium chysogenum mycelium

The adsorption capacity for Ni²⁺ on to the surface molecular imprinting adsorbent on Penicillium chysogenum mycelium (the surface-imprinted adsorbent) was 40–45 mg g^–1 (using 200 mg Ni²⁺ l^–1), two times of the mycelium adsorbent. The surface-imprinted adsorbent had good stability at pH 28. The optimal concentration of EDTA for desorption was 0.1 to 0.5 g l^–1. The surface imprinted adsorbent could be reused 15 times without losing its uptake.
