the interaction of brilliant green with herring sperm dna was investigated in detail by spectrometric methods in γ-cyclodextrin systems. on the condition of physiological ph, brilliant green prefers to form the 1:1 inclusion complex with γ-cyclodextrin.all the evidences indicated that the binding modes between γ-cyclodextrin-brilliant green and dna were grooving binding and partial non-classica...

isotherms of the binding of the anthracyciine antibiotic, adriamycin (adriblastin), to dna histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic analysis. the results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones reduced the interaction of histones with dna, (b) binding of the drug to dna did not change the binding affinity of histone to dna and, (c) in the explored binding range of r

The characteristics of manganese and iron binding to human apotransferrin (apo-tf) have been investigated and compared in this study. Both metal ions were taken up by human apo-tf and formed complexes, with the maximum absorbances observed at 410 and 340 nm for manganese-transferrin (Mn-tf) and 465 nm for iron-transferrin (Fe-tf). Addition of manganese (1.5 µg/ml) to the reaction mixture contai...

background: cytoadherence of plasmodium falciparum - infected erythrocytes to host cells is an im-portant trait for parasite survival and has a major role in pathology of malaria disease. infections with p. falciparum usually consist of several subpopulations of parasites with different adhesive prop-erties. this study aimed to compare relative sizes of various binding subpopulations of differe...

a binding study of nickel ions by a new recombinant human growth hormone (hgh), produced as an injected drug, has been done at 27˚c in nacl solution (50 mm) using an isothermal titration calorimetry. there is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for nickel ions. the intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 40 μm and -16.5 kj/mol, re...

stability of the ;-; stacking interactions in the substituted-coronene||cyclooctatetraene complexes wasstudied using the computational quantum chemistry methods (where || denotes ;–; stackinginteraction, and substituted-coronene is coronene which substituted with four similar x groups; x =oh, sh, h, f, cn, and no). there are meaningful correlations between changes of geometricalparameters and t...

Introduction: Interferon beta is one of the members of type I interferons. Creating R27T and V101F mutations is one of the important researches performed to improve function, decrease immunogenicity, increase expression and increase half-life of interferon beta. In this study, the effects of R27T and V101F mutations on interferon beta binding to interferon receptors were studied by molecular do...
