Ligand-stabilized conformations in serum albumin.
Interaction of human serum albumin with anionic azo dyes decreases the susceptibility of the former to hydrolytic attack by five different proteases. By using methyl orange as the ligand, it is shown that the occupation of the two strong binding sites by the dye is necessary and sufficient for this effect. Different ligands decrease the digestibility of albumin to different extents when tested ...
متن کاملHuman serum albumin (HSA) nanoparticles stabilized with intermolecular disulfide bonds.
We have presented a self-cross-link strategy to fabricate HSA nanoparticles using a desolvation method. The nanoparticles were stabilized by intermolecular disulfide bonds while still dissolvable in reducing media. The fabrication process does not involve any toxic chemicals and hence the nanoparticles may be useful as a drug carrier.
متن کاملTemperature-dependent simultaneous ligand binding in human serum albumin.
Human serum albumin (HSA) is a soluble protein in our circulatory system, which is known to bind a variety of drugs and ligands. Since Sudlow's pioneering works on the ligand-binding sites, a major effort of the biophysical/biochemical research has been directed to characterize the structural, functional, and dynamical properties of this protein. Structural studies on HSA have revealed distinct...
متن کاملInteraction of Phthalocyanine with Egg albumin and Bovine serum albumin
The interaction of bovine serum albumin ( BSA) and egg albumin with water solublephthalocyanine, cobalt (ΙΙ) 4, 4′ , 4′′, 4′′′- tetrasulfophthalocyanine ( CoTSPc) , has been studiedby the UV- Vis method at pH 7.0 and five different temperatures 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40°C. Theformation constants have been elucidated by using spectrophotometric titration and computerSQUAD program data refinement. Th...
متن کاملLigand channel in pharmacologically stabilized rhodopsin
In the degenerative eye disease retinitis pigmentosa (RP), protein misfolding leads to fatal consequences for cell metabolism and rod and cone cell survival. To stop disease progression, a therapeutic approach focuses on stabilizing inherited protein mutants of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) rhodopsin using pharmacological chaperones (PC) that improve receptor folding and trafficking. In...
