Patterning of lactoferrin using functional SAMs of iron complexes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new method has been developed that allows spatially resolved adsorption of lactoferrin on a surface, by means of specific non-covalent interaction between the native protein and a patterned self-assembled monolayer of an iron-containing terpyridine complex.

In silico investigation of lactoferrin protein characterizations for the prediction of anti-microbial properties
Lactoferrin (Lf) is an iron-binding multi-functional glycoprotein which has numerous physiological functions such as iron transportation, anti-microbial activity and immune response. In this study, different in silico approaches were exploited to investigate Lf protein properties in a number of mammalian species. Results showed that the iron-binding site, DNA and RNA-binding sites, signal pepti...
متن کاملElectron spin echo envelope modulation evidence for carbonate binding to iron(III) and copper(II) transferrin and lactoferrin.
Iron binding to transferrin and lactoferrin requires a synergistic anion, which is carbonate in vivo. The anion is thought to play a key role in iron binding and release. To understand better the iron-carbonate interaction, experiments were performed with iron(III) and copper(II) complexes of human milk lactoferrin and serum transferrin with carbon-13-labeled carbonate. Modulation frequencies w...
متن کاملIron uptake and increased intracellular enzyme activity follow host lactoferrin binding by Trichomonas vaginalis receptors
Lactoferrin acquisition and iron uptake by pathogenic Trichomonas vaginalis was examined. Saturation binding kinetics were obtained for trichomonads using increasing amounts of radioiodinated lactoferrin, while no significant binding by transferrin under similar conditions was achieved. Only unlabeled lactoferrin successfully and stoichiometrically competed with 125I-labeled lactoferrin binding...
متن کاملPreparation and Antimicrobial Action of Three Tryptic Digested Functional Molecules of Bovine Lactoferrin
Lactoferrin is an 80 kDa bilobal, iron binding glycoprotein which is primarily antimicrobial in nature. The hydrolysis of lactoferrin by various proteases in the gut produces several functional fragments of lactoferrin which have varying molecular sizes and properties. Here, bovine lactoferrin has been hydrolyzed by trypsin, the major enzyme present in the gut, to produce three functional molec...
