Abstract: | AbstractThe interaction of the cefobiprole drug with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) at physiological pH was investigated by UV-visible spectrophotometry, fluorescence measurement, dynamic viscosity measurements, circular dichroism spectroscopy and molecular modeling. The binding constant obtained of UV–visible was 4?×?104 L mol?1. Moreover, the results of circular dichroism (CD) and viscosity measurements displayed that the binding of the cefobiprole to ct-DNA can change the conformation of ct-DNA. Furthermore, thermodynamic parameters indicated that hydrogen bond and van der waals play main roles in the binding of cefobiprole to ct-DNA. Optimal results of docking, it can be concluded that ceftobiprole-DNA docked model is in approximate correlation with our experimental results. |
