Binding of Low-Molecular-Weight Cationic Ligands to Chondroitin Sulfate as Studied by Capillary Electrophoresis Frontal Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The feasibility of capillary electrophoresis frontal analysis for the study of low-molecular-weight ligandchondroitin sulfate interactions was investigated. The interaction of the 7 cationic ligands (lidocaine, propranolol, scopolamine, N-methyl scopolamine, N-butyl scopolamine, 2-propylisochinolinium, and methyl viologen) with the glycosaminoglycan chondroitin sulfate was investigated in 0.067 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, at 25 o C. A frontal analysis method with a short analysis time, suitable for ranking ligands according to degree of complexation for chondroitin sulfate was developed. The double charged ligand methyl viologen possessed the highest affinity for chondroitin sulfate. Linear binding isotherms were obtained and apparent association constants were determined. Capillary electrophoresis frontal analysis may be an attractive tool for characterization of ligand-glycosaminoglycan interactions.

The interaction of a cationic detergent with bovine serum albumin and other proteins.
The binding of tetradecyltrimethylammonium chloride to bovine serum albumin and several other globular proteins was measured, and the resulting conformational changes were studied by optical and hydrodynamic techniques. Native serum albumin was found to have four discrete binding sites for the detergent, to which binding occurs without conformational change, and with a much lower binding consta...

A novel technique, frontal analysis continuous capillary electrophoresis (FACCE), has been described as an effective way to study protein-polyelectrolyte binding. FACCE involves continuous sampling, integrating sample injection and separation into one process that provides advantages over conventional frontal chromatography. The method provides rapid and precise determination of binding isother...

The adulteration of raw heparin with oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS) in 2007-2008 produced a global crisis resulting in extensive revisions to the pharmacopeia monographs and prompting the FDA to recommend the development of additional methods for the analysis of heparin purity. As a consequence, a wide variety of innovative analytical approaches have been developed for the quality assu...

Bovine nucleus pulposus has been found to be a good source of a series of proteinpolysaccharides containing chondroitin 6-sulfate and keratan sulfate. Six distinct fractions have been separated, totaling 40 % of the dry weight of the tissue. Each fraction contains protein, chondroitin B-sulfate, and keratan sulfate, but the proportions of these components are different in each fraction. Of thes...
