<p>Investigation of sorption of bovine serum albumin in the static mode and in ultrafiltration conditions by membranes produced from statistic copolymers of aromatic polyamides synthesized by polycondensation of the sodium salt of 4, 4/-diaminodiphenylamine-2-sulfo-acid and m-phenylenediamine in various ratios with chloroanhydride of isophthalic acid has been carried out. Interconnection has been established between the charge of protein macromolecules, concentration of fragments containing ionic groups in the aromatic polyamide and sorptive, separation and transport characteristics of membranes on its basis. It has been shown that dominant forces that determine membrane/protein interaction in the systems under consideration are coulomb forces, but the contribution of hydrophobic interactions is also significant. The results of mathematical processing of experimental data indicate that there is a good compliance of sorption isotherms with Langmuir’s model. Depending on the concentration of fragments containing ionic groups in the polyamide and pH of the solution, the calculated values of maximum sorption in sorbent/sorbate systems under consideration vary in the range of 0.028 to 0.338 mg/cm<sup>2</sup>. Dynamic investigations have shown that selectivity of the membranes is 85 to 98%. To assess the sorptive activity of the membranes in the course of ultrafiltration, indicators of sorption and sorptive losses calculated on the basis of the ratio of the change of mass content of protein in the process of filtration to the initial value have been used. Depending on the material used to produce the membrane and pH of the solution being filtered, sorptive losses range from 5 to 33%. Their minimum value is observed when pH is higher than the isoelectric point of the protein, i.e. in the field where protein macromolecules and the surface of the membrane have like charges.</p>

Main Factor

The interaction of bovine serum albumin in aqueous solution with sulfonate-containing poly- and copolyamides were studied. It was shown that, as a result of macromolecular reactions protein-polyelectrolyte complexes forms, stabilized mainly by electrostatic forces. To characterize the protein-polyelectrolyte complexes composition the r parameter used, which is defines as the ratio of mass concentration of polyelectrolyte and protein. It was shown that the main factor determining the composition and structure of forming protein-polyelectrolyte complexes is the degree of ionization of functional groups, interacting in the polyelectrolyte reaction that is determined by the nature of those groups and the pH of the solution. The presen ce of sulfonate and carboxylic groups in the copolyamide composition gives an extra opportunity to regulate the protein-polyelectrolyte interactions. Using spectrophotometry were established that, in the studied system when the aromatic polyamide and bovine serum albumin are mixed at optimal pH conditions (рН < 4.9), complexes are formed, the composition of which corresponds to the value of r ~ 0.15 g/g. The degree of conversation in protein-polyelectrolyte reactions is close to 0.8. The size of the formed particles was about 2.2 μm. In the case of aromatic copolyamides that contain both sulfonate and carboxylic groups, an increase in concentration of carboxylic groups to 42 mol. % leads to a shift of the optical density maximum on the curve of turbidimetric titration in to the higher r values (~ 0.18 g/g) at pH = 3.5, when the carboxylic groups are non-ionized. The size of the formed complex particles was about ~ 150.0 nm, the fraction of micron-sized particles is about 5%. The degree of released protein is based on the conditions under which reaction take place and varies from 93 to 99%. The result obtained during this work can serve as a base for the effective methods of isolation and purifying of the target proteins development.

In this study, we investigated the interaction of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) by fluorescence method and protein‐ligand docking. We separated EGCG from green tea using the chromatographic method and analyzed structural activity relationships of the EGCG. The results show that EGCG is a strong quencher of BSA fluorescence and binds with BSA with high affinity. The binding parameters (binding constant, the number of binding sites) were determined by the Ward equation. From the thermodynamic parameters, calculated according to the van’t Hoff equation, the enthalpy change ΔH°, and entropy change ΔS° were found to be -22.67 kJ/mol and 14.92 J/mol/K, respectively. These values suggest that apart from an initial hydrophobic association, the complex is held together by electrostatic and hydrogen bonding. In the docking simulation, the lowest free energies for the interaction of EGCG with tryptophan residues was −21.92kJ/mol (Trp134) and −24.7 kJ/mol (Trp213). The binding between EGCG and BSA consists of hydrogen bonds (Trp213) and hydrophobic interactions (Trp134).

The results of resonance light scattering (RLS) studies represent no aggregate formation of porphyrazine in the surface of BSA and low tendency of these porphyrazine for aggregate formation. The binding constants and binding stoichiometries were determined by analyzing of optical absorption spectra of porphyrazine complexes at various concentration of BSA using SQUAD software. The results show that the best fitting corresponds to a 1:1 complex model between BSA and porphyrazines. The thermodynamic parameters were calculated by van't Hoff equation at various temperatures. The data indicate that the process is entropy driven suggesting that hydrophobic interactions play a considerable role in the complex formation. The binding of porphyrazine complexes to BSA quenches fluorescence emission of BSA via a dynamic mechanism and the quenching process obeys a linear Stern-Volmer relationship. The average aggregation number of BSA, which has been calculated from the analysis of fluorescence quenching data, indicates the absence of any porphyrazine induced aggregation of BSA due to its interaction with porphyrazine complexes. Fluorescence studies also indicate that porphyrazine is bound to site I of BSA placed in sub-domain IIA, where tryptophan 214 is located.

A chemiluminescence probe for singlet oxygen 1O2 (SOCL) was investigated in phosphate buffer saline (PBS), either in the absence of proteins or containing bovine serum albumin (BSA). In the protein-free PBS, the reactivity of SOCL for methylene blue (MB)-photosensitized 1O2 was found to be moderate or low. The reaction yield increased with temperature and/or concentration of dissolved molecular oxygen. Unexpectedly, the presence of BSA boosted both the emissive nature and the thermal stability of the phenoxy-dioxetane intermediate formed in the chemiexcitation pathway. Isothermal titration calorimetry showed that SOCL has a moderate binding affinity for BSA and that entropy forces drive the formation of the SOCL-BSA complex. A model with two identical and independent binding sites was used to fit the binding isotherm data. Co-operative binding was observed when MB was present. Local viscosity factors and/or conformational restrictions of the BSA-bound SOCL phenoxy-dioxetane were proposed to contribute to the formation of the highly emissive benzoate ester during the chemically initiated electron exchange luminescence (CIEEL) process. These results led us to conclude that hydrophobic interactions of the SOCL with proteins can modify the emissive nature of its phenoxy-dioxetane, which should be taken into account when using SOCL or its cell-penetrating peptide derivative in living cells.

We investigated the mutual interaction of daidzin with bovine serum albumin (BSA) by fluorescence spectroscopy. The results revealed that daidzin cause the fluorescence quenching of BSA through a static quenching procedure. The Stern-Volmer quenching constant (Ksv) were calculated at different temperature. The binding site (n), apparent binding constant (Ka) and corresponding thermodynamic parameters △Go, △Ho, △Sowere calculated and the van der Waals interaction, hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions play an important role in stabilizing the complex. Besides, we also studied the effect of Cu2+, Ni2+, Mn2+and Co2+on the binding constants between daidzin and BSA, it is shows that the binding of BSA and daidzin is strengthened in the presence metal ions.

The influence of temperature on bovine serum albumin (BSA) aggregation in aqueous solutions in the presence of poly-N,N-dimethyl-N,N-diallylammonium chloride (PDMDAAC) and the sodium salt of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) was studied. It was shown that protein-polyelectrolyte complexes (PPC) form because of macromolecular reactions that are stabilized mainly by electrostatic forces. To characterize the PPC composition the φ parameter was used. This parameter is defined as the ratio of the concentration of ionic groups of polyelectrolyte per protein molecules. It was studied that when in an interpolyelectrolyte reaction, a sufficiently high degree of transformation occurs the polymer electrolyte initiates aggregation of protein molecules. As the temperature increases, the initiating role of the polymer electrolyte increases due to an increase in the intensity of hydrophobic interactions. Using the method of spectrophotometry, it was found that, depending on the nature of the polymer electrolyte, insoluble complexes of bovine serum albumin are formed when the pH parameter is above or below the isoelectric point of the protein, when its macromolecules are negatively or positively charged. In the presence of poly-N,N-dimethyl-N,N-diallylammonium chloride, the intensive formation of aggregates and their rapid precipitation in the form of flakes at pH > 7.0 was observed when the temperature increased to 60 °C. The maximum yield of the product of the interpolyelectrolyte reaction bovine serum albumin – sodium salt of carboxymethylcellulose was detected at pH ≤ 4.0. A temperature increase up to 60 °C, in this case, was not accompanied by intensive flocculation. Under optimal composition and interaction conditions, the degree of transformation in the BSA – PDMDAAX and BSA – CMC reactions is ~0.93 and 0.9, respectively, and decreases by ~5-7% with an increase in temperature to 60 °C. It was shown that for the same BOD composition (the ratio of components in the [CMC]/[BSA] complex = 0.1 g/g), an increase in temperature from 25 to 60 °C leads to the formation of particles that increase in size from 1 mcm to 5 mcm. The temperature increase leads to a change in composition of BOD, corresponding to its maximum output as a interpolyelectrolyte reactions product: for complex with PDMDAAC at T = 25, 40 and 60 °C, the φ value is 70, 60, 15; for the complex with the CMC – 60, 50, 20.

Surfactants are versatile excipients that are commonly employed in diverse pharmaceutical formulations given their broad range of antimicrobial activities. Sulfur-based amino acid surfactants are promising candidates as substitutes for conventional antibacterial agents in light of the current antibiotic resistance crisis. Dodecyl esters of the free amine (SURF1), cationic ester hydrochloride (SURF2), and quaternary ammonium (QUAT3) derivatives of methionine, and the Gemini diester of cystine (GEM4) were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens. All surfactants displayed moderate to high antibacterial activities, particularly on Gram-positive bacteria, with QUAT3 showing the highest activity. Among Gram-negative bacteria, QUAT3, GEM4, and SURF2 were mostly active towards K. pneumoniae with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) ranging from 0.004 to 0.441 mM. QUAT3 and GEM4 displayed a bacteriostatic behavior similar to that of tetracycline, as assessed by broth macrodilution assays. Fluorescence binding studies with 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) revealed that the antibacterial activities could be attributed to a combination of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) fluorescence and molecular docking studies indicated that SURF1 and QUAT3 interact mainly via van der Waals' forces and hydrogen bonding while SURF2 binds through hydrophobic interactions. QUAT3, which displays broad-spectrum activity, has the potential to combat drug-resistant bacteria.

The thermal melting of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the presence of excipients like ethanol and sucrose was studied by circular dichroism spectroscopy at physiological pH in phosphate buffered saline. Calculated apparentTmvalues were used to assess the thermal stability using two state fitted experimental curves. 0.5 M sucrose stabilized the BSA indicated by the increase inTmof ∼8°C when compared to theTmof the same solution measured in the absence of sucrose. Conversely, in the presence of varying concentrations of ethanol (2–20%), the protein was destabilized by a decrease of ∽3–10°C ofTm. In the binary mixture of sucrose and ethanol, theTmvalues showed that ethanol dominantly destabilized BSA in the presence of sucrose, possibly by weakening the hydrophobic interactions in the protein.

Interaction of a number of natural and synthetic polyelectrolytes (PE): chitosan, poly‒N,N‒dimethyl‒N,N‒diallylammonium chloride, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and aromatic copolyamide, synthesized on the bases of dichloranhydride of isophthalic acid and two diamines (4,4’‒(2,2’‒sodium disulfonate)‒diaminodephenyl, 4,4’‒(2,2’‒dicarboxylic acid)‒diaminodiphenylmethyl) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) in aqueous solutions were studied. It was shown that as a result of macromolecular reactions protein‒polyelectrolyte complexes (PPC) forms, stabilized mainly by electrostatic forces. To characterize their composition we used the value of parameter φ, defined as an amount of ionic groups of polyelectrolytes calculated per macromolecule of protein. Using spectrophotometry and conductometry it was established that the composition of PPC in the studied systems when components are mixed at optimal conditions corresponds to the value of φ ~30 – 90. The conditions for the existence of insoluble PPC were determined. In the case of precipitation of poly-N,N‒dimethyl‒N,N‒diallylammonium chloride and chitosan in protein – polyelectrolyte reactions the maximum yield of the product is observed at pH ≥ 7. The introduction of sodium carboxymethylcellulose and aromatic copolyamide into the interaction with protein accompanied by shifting the range of PPC existence into the acidic region: the maximum yield of the product is observed at рН ≤ 4. The size of the formed complex particles ranges from 10 nm ([PE]/[BSA] = 0.01 – 0.05 g/g) to ~ 1.0 ‒ 5.5 μm ([PE]/[BSA] = 0.1 – 0.35 g/g). In case of relatively short‒chained aromatic copolyamide, containing significant amount of non‒ionized carboxylic groups, the ratio of micron size particles is about 5%. The presence of sulfonate and carboxylic groups in the composition of copolyamide gives an additional opportunity to regulate the conversation degree in the interpolyelectrolyte reactions, thus also implying the structure and the composition of the formed complexes.
