We investigated the influence of THz laser radiation of frequencies of 1.15 THz and 3.68 THz and radiation power of about 10 Mw on protein (bovine serum albumin). Using UV spectrophotometry, we revealed increase in the optical density of irradiated samples of bovine serum albumin at the characteristic absorption bands, which is evidence of conformation changes in protein molecules

The interactions of epoxiconazole and prothioconazole with human serum albumin and bovine serum albumin were investigated using spectroscopic methods complemented with molecular modeling. Spectroscopic techniques showed the formation of pesticide/serum albumin complexes with the static type as the dominant mechanism. The association constants ranged from 3.80 × 104–6.45 × 105 L/mol depending on the pesticide molecule (epoxiconazole, prothioconazole) and albumin type (human or bovine serum albumin). The calculated thermodynamic parameters revealed that the binding of pesticides into serum albumin macromolecules mainly depended on hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions. Synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy and the competitive experiments method showed that pesticides bind to subdomain IIA, near tryptophan; in the case of bovine serum albumin also on the macromolecule surface. Concerning prothioconazole, we observed the existence of an additional binding site at the junction of domains I and III of serum albumin macromolecules. These observations were corroborated well by molecular modeling predictions. The conformation changes in secondary structure were characterized by circular dichroism, three-dimensional fluorescence, and UV/VIS absorption methods.

Rosmarinic acid (RA) is an importantly and naturally occurring polyphenol. The interaction between bovine serum albumin and rosmarinic acid was studied to investigate the binding patterns and conformation changes.
