Porous polymeric microspheres , poly(styrene-divinyl benzene, PSDVB)-poly(ethylene glycol monoallyl ether, PEGMAE), termed as PSDVB-PEGMAE, are prepared via double emulsion interfacial polymerization strategy. PSDVB-PEGMAE microspheres exhibit a mean diameter of 2.98 μm, and possess heterogeneous porous structure with a pore volume of 0.354 cm 3 g −1 and a pore size of 34.3 nm. PEGMAE moiety is identified on the external surface of the microspheres, while both PSDVB and PEGMAE moieties are found in the interior pores. The PSDVB-PEGMAE microspheres possess favorable selectivity towards the adsorption of conalbumin (ConA) through hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic interactions, via surface and inter-pore adsorption. At pH 6, an adsorption capacity of 171.9 mg g −1 is achieved for ConA. The captured ConA may be readily recovered by stripping with a cetane trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) solution (0.1%, m/v). The microspheres are further used for the isolation of ConA from egg white, deriving high purity ConA as demonstrated by SDS-PAGE assay.

To produce high-quality surimi, we investigated the effect of ozone-induced mild oxidation on structural changes of silver carp myosin by analyzing circular dichroism (CD), intrinsic fluorescence, the sulfhydryl group, surface hydrophobicity, SDS-PAGE, and dynamic light scattering (DLS) of myosin. Mild ozone oxidation of myosin was performed by applying gaseous ozone for a short time. Results showed that the content of sulfhydryl group decreased, and carbonyl content and surface hydrophobicity increased with an increase in ozone treatment time. A red shift in the maximum wavelength of intrinsic fluorescence indicated the unfolding of oxidized myosin. Further conformational change of myosin was illustrated by CD; α-helical content decreased significantly and β-turn, β-sheet, and random coil content increased with increased ozone treatment time, which demonstrated the rearrangement of β-structure in myosin. The results from DLS and SDS-PAGE indicated that soluble oligomers or aggregates were formed by disulfide bonds under mild ozone treatment. Therefore, ozone-induced mild oxidation did not strongly alter myosin structure but promoted myosin partial unfolding, which might result in exposing more cross-linking sites for the formation of surimi gel.

The β-lactoglobulin-chlorogenic acid (LG-CA) conjugate was explored to be formed through ultrasonication, redox-pair method and their combination, the ultrasonication used a probe ultrasonic machine with a 6 mm probe at 270 W, and the frequency was 20–25 kHz. The formation of the conjugate was confirmed by SDS-PAGE with a larger molecular weight. Besides, Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Circular dichroism (CD) indicated changes in the secondary structure of the LG-CA conjugate. The α-helix and β-sheet contents of LG decreased and the unordered content increased significantly after the formation of covalent complexes. In addition, both the ultrasonic treatment and its combination with redox-pair method could significantly improve the antioxidant properties of LG. The former increased to 23.16 μmol Trolox/g sample, the latter 82–106 μmol Trolox/g sample. Therefore, ultrasonication could be used both individually and in combination with the redox-pair method to produce LG-CA conjugates with stronger antioxidant activities.

In this paper, the effects of NaOH, NaCl, and heat on the appearance, physical characteristics, and gel structure of duck egg white (EW) jointly induced by NaOH, NaCl, and heat were investigated. Results showed that the absolute value of zeta potential (TAV-ZP) of gel samples increased, hunter whiteness decreased, gel opacity decreased, and the microstructure of gel appeared as a loose network structure with increased NaOH addition. With the increase of NaCl addition, TAV-ZP of gel samples decreased, hunter whiteness increased, gel opacity increased, the microstructure of gel became dense. With the increase of heating temperature, TAV-ZP of gel samples decreased, hunter whiteness decreased, gel opacity increased, the microstructure of gel became dense first and then loosened. The results of SDS-PAGE, surface hydrophobicity, T 2 , hardness, cohesiveness indicated that protein molecules underwent cross-linking, aggregation, and unfolding during duck EW gelation jointly induced by NaOH, NaCl, and heat. The results of strain-stress curve showed that all gel samples had a good anti-compressed ability. The results of central composite design showed that the best treatment of gel was heating temperature 91 °C, NaOH 0.48%, and NaCl 0.3%.

Separation and purification of Cytochrome C (Cyt-C) is important for proteomic. High efficient and selective pretreatment method for Cyt-C in real samples are always needed. Herein, polyniobate (K 7 H[Nb 6 O 19 ]·13H 2 O, Nb 6 O 19 ) is modified on a metal-organic framework MIL-125(Ti) through intermolecular hydrogen bonds and an aqueous-stable composite Nb 6 O 19 /MIL-125(Ti) is successfully prepared to pretreat complex protein sample. Protein adsorption studies have shown that Nb 6 O 19 /MIL-125(Ti) can promote the selective adsorption of Cyt-C due to the synergistic effect of electrostatic and hydrogen-bond interactions. At pH=10.0 (Britton-Robinson buffer), the adsorption efficiency of 300 μL 100 μg·mL −1 Cyt-C onto 1.0 mg Nb 6 O 19 /MIL-125(Ti) can reach 99.5%. The adsorption behavior of Cyt-C fits well with the Langmuir adsorption model, corresponding to a maximum theoretical adsorption capacity of 168.35 mg·g −1 . Using 3 mol·L −1 NaCl as the eluent, a high elution efficiency of 92.19% is obtained. In addition, the results of the sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis confirm that Nb 6 O 19 /MIL-125(Ti) efficiently adsorbed Cyt-C from scrofa heart extraction. LC-MS/MS spectrometry results show that the purification of Cyt-C reduces the abundance from the 12th to the 154th place after Nb 6 O 19 /MIL-125(Ti) treatment. Moreover, low abundant proteins, e.g., Superoxide dismutase 1, IF rod domain-containing protein and Ubiquitin-60S ribosomal protein L40 were considerably enriched. These outcomes confirm the practicability of Nb 6 O 19 /MIL-125 (Ti) as a Cyt-C extractant has potential application value in scrofa heart proteomics.

A new solid-phase extraction agent, IgG@ Fe 3 O 4 -PEI, was successfully developed by conjugating immunoglobulin G (IgG) with amino-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 -PEI). The IgG@Fe 3 O 4 -PEI composite was characterized using various techniques including infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, magnetic property testing, Zeta potential measurements, energy spectrum analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Because of the presence of a specific binding domain in the Fc fragment of IgG, the IgG@Fe 3 O 4 -PEI composite demonstrated highly selective adsorption of recombinant streptococcal G protein (rSPG) under optimal experimental conditions. At pH 6.0, the IgG@Fe 3 O 4 -PEI composite (0.5 mg) achieved a maximum adsorption efficiency of 93.96 % for rSPG at a concentration of 100 μg mL -1 . Adsorption model simulations indicated that the adsorption behavior followed the Langmuir adsorption model, with a theoretical maximum adsorption capacity of 125.0 mg g -1 . The enriched rSPG was eluted and recovered using Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer at pH 10.0, achieving a recovery efficiency of 95.8 %. In practical applications, the IgG@Fe 3 O 4 -PEI magnetic nanoparticles effectively enriched rSPG from an Escherichia coli expression system, and SDS-PAGE analysis confirmed the successful isolation of highly pure rSPG. Furthermore, the IgG@Fe 3 O 4 -PEI magnetic nanoparticles were used to capture proteins from human serum samples. After enrichment and processing, 430 proteins were identified, including 34 that were undetectable in untreated serum samples. This validated the high sensitivity and specificity of this method in serum proteomics, demonstrating its potential for isolating and identifying low-abundance proteins in complex biological samples. The developed system offers a valuable tool for advancing human serum proteomics research and targeted protein analysis.

The grafting of a drug molecule, i.e., geldanamycin (GA) onto polyethyleneimine (PEI)-coated magnetic nanoparticle produces a novel composite, GA@Fe 3 O 4 –NH 2 . The composite is confirmed by characterizations with FT-IR, Raman, SEM, EDS, VSM and TEM. Due to the high binding-affinity of GA with myosin heavy chain (MYH), GA@Fe 3 O 4 –NH 2 exhibits excellent adsorption performance towards myosin. Consequently, a solid-phase extraction procedure is established for highly efficient and selective separation of myosin from pig heart extract. At pH 6.0, an adsorption efficiency of 97.1 % is achieved for treating 100 μg mL −1 myosin (0.1 mL) with 0.1 mg GA@Fe 3 O 4 –NH 2 as adsorbent. The adsorption behavior of myosin onto GA@Fe 3 O 4 –NH 2 fits Langmuir model, corresponding to a theoretical adsorption capacity of 518.1 mg g −1 . The adsorbed myosin can be readily recycled by the SDS solution (1 %, m/m) with an elution efficiency of 91.8 %. According to circular dichroism spectroscopy, the conformational changes of myosin during adsorption and elution are reversible. For practical application, myosin is successfully isolated from the pig left ventricular protein extract with GA@Fe 3 O 4 –NH 2 , and SDS-PAGE and LC-MS/MS showed that myosin had high purity and a total of 716 proteins could be identified. Significantly, Geldamycin-encapsulated magnetic nanoparticle for the separation of myosin well exploits the potential of the nanomaterials modified by drug molecules in the separation and purification of target proteins.

Transglutaminase (TGase)-mediated cross-linking has gained significant attention due to its potential to reduce the allergenicity of food proteins. This study investigates the effects of TGase cross-linking on allergenicity and conformational modifications in a dual-protein system comprising soy protein isolate (SPI) and β-lactoglobulin (β-LG). The results showed that TGase cross-linking effectively decreased the allergenic potential of both SPI and β-LG, with a more pronounced reduction observed in the allergenicity of soy protein in the dual-protein system. SDS-PAGE analysis revealed that the 7S and 11S subunits of soy protein were more easily cross-linked than β-LG. Secondary structure analysis indicated that TGase treatment disrupted β-sheet structures, increased the content of random coils, and enhanced protein flexibility. Ultraviolet absorption and intrinsic fluorescence analyses confirmed these structural alterations, with TGase treatment exposing additional aromatic amino acids. A reduction in free sulfhydryl groups and altered intermolecular forces further corroborated the occurrence of cross-linking. These findings suggest that TGase-mediated cross-linking effectively reduced the allergenicity of SPI and β-LG by modifying their conformations, offering potential strategies for the development of hypoallergenic dual-protein food products. Practical Application This study has practical applications in the food industry to develop hypoallergenic food products, particularly those that combine soy and dairy proteins. By using TGase to cross-link these proteins, the allergenicity can be reduced, resulting in products that are safer for consumers with food allergies.

Protein glycosylation and phosphorylation are two important post-translational modifications and play significant roles in various biological processes. However, both glycoproteins and phosphoproteins are in low abundance in complex samples, which hinders their characterization. In this work, we developed a novel method for the simultaneous adsorption of glycoproteins and phosphoproteins based on solid phase extraction. By virtue of the unique structure of hydrophilic titanium (IV) ion immobilized cotton fiber functionalized with phytic acid (denoted as Ti4+-PA-cotton), glycoproteins, and phosphoproteins could be efficiently enriched in one-step incubation and eluted in sequence. The newly prepared Ti4+-PA-cotton was well characterized, and the adsorption isotherms and kinetics were studied. The maximum adsorption capacities of Ti4+-PA-cotton for β-casein and HRP were 833.3 mg/g and 384.6 mg/g with the adsorption rate of 259.1 and 63.1 mg/g·min. Standard protein mixture of BSA, HRP, and β-casein was used to test the enrichment ability as a proof of concept. The SDS-PAGE results demonstrated that Ti4+-PA-cotton had an excellent enrichment performance and possessed an outstanding application potential in the analysis of glycoproteins and phosphoproteins.

Conformations of secondary and super secondary structure from bovine hides collagen are very important for constructing collagen molecular space structure, and directly related to its properties. In this work, the evolutional mechanism of the collagen conformation in the environment of sodium sulphide (Na 2 S) solution is periodically studied by FT-IR spectroscopy, the Gaussian peak fitting of secondary derivative, and auxiliary methods such as SDS-PAGE, SEM and TG. As a result, the three polypeptide chains structure of bovine hide collagen was hardly affected by the ions of OH − , HS − and S 2− . The conformation of collagen molecules such as β-turn, triple helix and β-strand were gradually evolved into unordered structure and α-helix with the sequential addition of OH − , HS − and S 2− , which is because the hydrogen bond inside collagen molecular is extended or opened with the increase of the synergistic effect of pH and reducibility of HS − and S 2− in the solution. The bound water content and thermal properties of the treated collagen molecules are decreased. Finally, the order of the hydrolysis ability to collagen is NaOH < NaHS < Na 2 S at the same condition, which was confirmed by measuring the content of hydroxyproline from their solutions after treating the collagen. This work provides very important information for understanding the evolutional mechanism of bovine hide collagen conformation in the Na 2 S solution, developing the alternatives of sulfide, extraction of collagen, tanning, and application of collagen in biological and material science.

Lysine succinylation is a major post-translational modification affecting diverse proteins, and its excessive occurrence can lead to protein misfolding and aggregation—hallmarks of various proteinopathies, such as amyloid-β and Tau tangle formation in Alzheimer's disease and islet amyloid polypeptide aggregation in type 2 diabetes. Here, we investigated the inhibitory effects of bile acid metabolites (deoxycholic acid, glycocholic acid, and taurocholic acid sodium) and natural polyphenols (anthocyanin and salidroside) on succinylation and succinylation-induced amyloid aggregation. Succinylation levels were evaluated using the ninhydrin assay before and after treatment, and aggregation behavior and structural alterations were characterized by SDS-PAGE, inverted fluorescence microscopy, and intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy. Additionally, fluorescence quenching and molecular docking were used to explore the underlying mechanisms. All five small molecules significantly reduced succinylation in a concentration-dependent manner (p < 0.05). Among bile acids, taurocholic acid sodium exhibited the strongest suppression of aggregation (40.99 %), followed by glycocholic acid (28.32 %) and deoxycholic acid (27.94 %). Anthocyanin showed greater inhibition (33.81 %) than salidroside (26.54 %) (all p < 0.05). The results suggest that these small molecules inhibit succinylation-induced aggregation potentially by interacting with proteins and altering their conformations, thereby preventing excessive succinylation at lysine residues. This study provides new insight into the interplay between bile acid metabolism and protein homeostasis and highlights the therapeutic potential of natural compounds in preventing protein aggregation-related diseases.

In this work, Yb3+-immobilized hydrophilic phytic-acid-coated magnetic nanocomposites were prepared through a facile route and used to selectively separatrf bovine hemoglobin. Hydrophilic phytic acid (PA) was coated onto the magnetic Fe3O4-PEI via electrostatic interactions, followed by finally chelating with Yb3+ ions, which could produce specific protein binding sites at room temperature in water, and complex instrumentation was not necessary. The performance of as-prepared hybrids (Fe3O4-PEI-PA-Yb3+) was assessed by selectively isolating bovine hemoglobin (BHb). The obtained maximum binding capacity was 347.3 mg g–1. The retained BHb could be eluted under simple elution via using 0.1 M of Na2CO3, giving a recovery of 83%. Moreover, the generation of nanocomposites was demonstrated. In addition, the PA and PEI could improve the hydrophilicity of nanoparticles and further reduce the nonspecific adsorption. Therefore, such nanocomposites were successfully employed to selectively bind and separate BHb from bovine serum as verified by SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF MS analysis, providing a new perspective for the isolation of heme proteins in proteomics.
