Probing the secondary structure of bovine serum albumin during heat-induced denaturation using mid-infrared fiberoptic sensors.

چکیده
Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy using a special waveguide based on a silver halide fiber was used for probing the heat-induced secondary structure and conformation changes of bovine serum albumin (BSA). From the secondary derivative and the curve fitting of the obtained ATR-FTIR spectra, the changes of the BSA secondary structure with temperature were clearly identified. Two different thermal denaturation temperature ranges (i.e., 50-52 and 80-82 °C, at which a change of the protein structure occurred) were determined, while only one denaturation temperature was previously identified via classical FTIR measurements. Additionally, taking advantage of two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy more detailed information on changes of the protein secondary structure was revealed. The developed method facilitates in situ, sensitive, and more in-depth probing of protein secondary structures, which represents a significant advancement compared to conventional characterization methods.

Heat Induced Denaturation of Bovine Serum Albumin in Dimethylsulfoxide Containing Solutions in the Presence of Potassium Iodide
Heat induced denaturation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) containing solutions in the presence of potassium iodide has been studied using UV/vis spectroscopy method. It has been shown that the thermal stability of protein depends on competitive interactions taking place in the solution. At low DMSO concentrations (5 vol. %) BSA is more stable than at higher concentrati...

UNLABELLED Structural changes involved in the reactivation of peroxidases (PODs) from broccoli and horseradish (HRP) following heat denaturation were investigated by using circular dichroism and absorption spectroscopy. Cooling heat-treated enzymes resulted in rapid refolding of the secondary structure into an inactive structural species, similar in conformation to the native enzyme. Reassociat...

To investigate the interaction and adsorption of drug and carbon nanotube on human serum albumin, three anti-cancer drugs ([Pd(phen)(R-gly)]NO3, R = methyl, propyl and amyl) with different hydrophobic tails and anticancer activities were selected. These drugs have better anti-tumor activity and less side effects than that known cis-platinum drug. Human serum albumin is also ...
