The interactions between trypsin and caffeine/theophylline were investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy , UV–visible absorption spectroscopy , resonance light scattering and synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy under mimic physiological conditions . The results revealed that the fluorescence quenching of trypsin by caffeine and theophylline was the result of the formed complex of caffeine–trypsin and theophylline–trypsin. The binding constants and thermodynamic parameters at three different temperatures were obtained. The hydrophobic interaction was the predominant intermolecular forces to stabilize the complex. Results showed that caffeine was the stronger quencher and bound to trypsin with higher affinity than theophylline .
The interaction of bovine serum with leucomalachite green (LMG) was investigated by spectroscopic methods . LMG was found to quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA by dynamic quenching. High quenching constant suggested that LMG can form a complex with BSA. Binding constant and number of binding site were determined. The thermodynamic parameters suggested the main interacting force is hydrophobic forces . The effect of LMG on the conformation of BSA was analyzed by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy . RLS spectra were also used to reconfirm the formation of complex between BSA and LMG.
Butachlor is an effective herbicide to deal with undesired weeds selectively and is used at high levels in Asian countries. However, its interaction and impairment effect on BSA was still not clear. In this study, we investigated the interaction between butachlor and bovine serum albumin (BSA) by multi-spectroscopic methods including UV absorption , circular dichroism (CD) spectra, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra and fluorescence spectra under physiological conditions (pH = 7.4). The results revealed that there was a static quenching of BSA induced by butachlor stemmed from the formation of complex. Based on thermodynamic data, the interaction of butachlor with BSA was due to happen, and van der Waals force as well as hydrogen bond were the major forces contributed to the interaction. The binding constant K b and number of binding site of butachlor with BSA were 5.158 × 10 5 and 1.372 at 303 K, respectively. The distance r between donor (BSA) and acceptor (butachlor) was 0.113 nm, obtained according to the Förster theory. The results revealed that butachlor induced conformational changes in BSA but the secondary structure of BSA was still retained. In addition, the microenvironment around chromophore residues of BSA, for example, tryptophan , changed as well, resulting from the formation of more hydrogen bonds.
