Ma MY, Wu FY, Xu YP, Mu GQ, Qian F, Zhu XM. Study on the interaction mechanism of whey protein isolate with phosphatidylcholine: By multispectral methods and molecular docking. J Food Sci 2024; 89:4109-4122.

Abstract
The elucidation of the interaction mechanism between phospholipids and milk proteins within emulsions is pivotal for comprehending the properties of infant formula fat globules. In this study, multispectral methods and molecular docking were employed to explore the relationship between phosphatidylcholine (PC) and whey protein isolate (WPI). Observations indicate that the binding constant, alongside thermodynamic parameters, diminishes as temperature ascends, hinting at a predominantly static quenching mechanism. Predominantly, van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds constitute the core interactions between WPI and PC. This assertion is further substantiated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, which verifies PC's influence on WPI's secondary structure. A detailed assessment of thermodynamic parameters coupled with molecular docking reveals that PC predominantly adheres to specific sites within α-lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin, and bovine serum albumin, propelled by a synergy of hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals forces, with binding energies noted at -5.59, -6.71, and -7.85 kcal/mol, respectively. An increment in PC concentration is observed to amplify the emulsification properties of WPI whilst concurrently diminishing the zeta potential. This study establishes a theoretical foundation for applying the PC-WPI interaction mechanism in food.

Synthesis of obovatol and related neolignan analogues as α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibitors. Bioorg Chem 2024; 147:107392. [PMID: 38723423 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107392] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024]
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia, which can be counteracted by the inhibition of α-glucosidase (α-Glu) and α-amylase (α-Amy), enzymes responsible for the hydrolysis of carbohydrates. In recent decades, many natural compounds and their bioinspired analogues have been studied as α-Glu and α-Amy inhibitors. However, no studies have been devoted to the evaluation of α-Glu and α-Amy inhibition by the neolignan obovatol (1). In this work, we report the synthesis of 1 and a library of new analogues. The synthesis of these compounds was achieved by implementing methodologies based on: phenol allylation, Claisen/Cope rearrangements, methylation, Ullmann coupling, demethylation, phenol oxidation and Michael-type addition. Obovatol (1) and ten analogues were evaluated for their in vitro inhibitory activity towards α-Glu and α-Amy. Our investigation highlighted that the naturally occurring 1 and four neolignan analogues (11, 22, 26 and 27) were more effective inhibitors than the hypoglycemic drug acarbose (α-Amy: 34.6 µM; α-Glu: 248.3 µM) with IC5O value of 6.2-23.6 µM toward α-Amy and 39.8-124.6 µM toward α-Glu. Docking investigations validated the inhibition outcomes, highlighting optimal compatibility between synthesized neolignans and both the enzymes. Concurrently circular dichroism spectroscopy detected the conformational changes in α-Glu induced by its interaction with the studied neolignans. Detailed studies through fluorescence measurements and kinetics of α-Glu and α-Amy inhibition also indicated that 1, 11, 22, 26 and 27 have the greatest affinity for α-Glu and 1, 11 and 27 for α-Amy. Surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRI) measurements confirmed that among the compounds studied, the neolignan 27 has the greater affinity for both enzymes, thus corroborating the results obtained by kinetics and fluorescence quenching. Finally, in vitro cytotoxicity of the investigated compounds was tested on human colon cancer cell line (HCT-116). All these results demonstrate that these obovatol-based neolignan analogues constitute promising candidates in the pursuit of developing novel hypoglycemic drugs.

Non-covalent complexes of lutein/zeaxanthin and whey protein isolate formed at different pH levels: Binding interactions, storage stabilities, and bioaccessibilities. Curr Res Food Sci 2024; 8:100778.

Abstract
Lutein (Lut) and zeaxanthin (Zx) are promising healthy food ingredients; however, the low solubilities, stabilities, and bioavailabilities limit their applications in the food and beverage industries. A protein-based complex represents an efficient protective carrier for hydrophobic ligands, and its ligand-binding properties are influenced by the formulation conditions, particularly the pH level. This study explored the effects of various pH values (2.5-9.5) on the characteristics of whey protein isolate (WPI)-Lut/Zx complexes using multiple spectroscopic techniques, including ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), fluorescence, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies and dynamic light scattering (DLS). UV-Vis and DLS spectra revealed that Lut/Zx were present as H-aggregates in aqueous solutions, whereas WPI occurred as nanoparticles. The produced WPI-Lut/Zx complexes exhibited binding constants of 104-105 M-1, which gradually increased with increasing pH from 2.5 to 9.5. FTIR spectra demonstrated that pH variations and Lut/Zx addition caused detectable changes in the secondary WPI structure. Moreover, the WPI-Lut/Zx complexes effectively improved the physicochemical stabilities and antioxidant activities of Lut/Zx aggregates during long-term storage and achieved bioaccessibilities above 70% in a simulated gastrointestinal digestion process. The comprehensive data obtained in this study offer a basis for formulating strategies that can be potentially used in developing commercially available WPI complex-based xanthophyll-rich foods.

[PMID: 37625299 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
Bovine casein was selected as a model protein to evaluate the impact of food matrix on the thermal degradation of antibiotics. Fluorescence quenching and isothermal titration calorimetry experiments revealed that chlortetracycline (CTC) could spontaneously bind to casein via hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. The amino acid residues forming the binding pocket were further identified using molecular docking, while saturation transfer difference NMR deciphered that the binding of CTC engages its -N(CH3)2 group. Moreover, the degradation behavior of free CTC versus that bound in casein-CTC complex was compared during thermal treatment. Compared with free CTC, a lower first-order rate constant was observed in the presence of casein. Removal of casein shortened the half-life of CTC by at least 48.1% at low concentrations. Elucidating that the formation of protein-antibiotic complexes alters the amenability of antibiotics to degradative reactions, which could help eliminate residual antibiotics and guarantee the safety of dairy products.

Abstract
Proteins can self-assemble into a range of nanostructures as a result of molecular interactions. Amyloid nanofibrils, as one of them, were first discovered with regard to the relevance of neurodegenerative diseases but now have been exploited as building blocks to generate multiscale materials with designed functions for versatile applications. This review interconnects the mechanism of amyloid fibrillation, the current approaches to synthesizing amyloid protein-based materials, and the application in bioplastic development. We focus on the fundamental structures of self-assembled amyloid fibrils and how external factors can affect protein aggregation to optimize the process. Protein self-assembly is essentially the autonomous congregation of smaller protein units into larger, organized structures. Since the properties of the self-assembly can be manipulated by changing intrinsic factors and external conditions, protein self-assembly serves as an excellent building block for bioplastic development. Building on these principles, general processing methods and pathways from raw protein sources to mature state materials are proposed, providing a guide for the development of large-scale production. Additionally, this review discusses the diverse properties of protein-based amyloid nanofibrils and how they can be utilized as bioplastics. The economic feasibility of the protein bioplastics is also compared to conventional plastics in large-scale production scenarios, supporting their potential as sustainable bioplastics for future applications.

Abstract
The interaction between whey proteins and carotenoid is reported to improve carotenoid solubility and stability, however, the strong trend of carotenoids to aggregate when in polar systems is often neglected in papers addressing their molecular interaction. Therefore, this study focused on characterizing the aggregative behavior of the carotenoids from yellow mombin (Spondias mombin) and to understand how these carotenoids behave when added to aqueous dispersions of whey proteins. Carotenoids-rich extract, containing mainly β-cryptoxanthin and lutein, was obtained from freeze-dried yellow mombin pulp and its aggregative behavior in ethanol/water medium was studied. By increasing the medium polarity, carotenoids trend to form J-aggregation, causing a drop in the color intensity of the solution. When added to whey protein aqueous dispersions, rather than a protein-carotenoid bimolecular interaction, the formation of co-aggregates between carotenoids and whey proteins was evidenced by preparative size exclusion chromatography. These results may contribute to the developing functional food products.

Abstract
Monascus red pigments (MRPs) are mainly used as natural food colorants; however, their application is limited due to their poor stability. To expand their areas of application, we investigated the binding constants and capacity of MRPs to whey protein isolate (WPI) and whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) and calculated the surface hydrophobicities of WPI and WPH. MRPs were combined with WPI and WPH at a hydrolysis degree (DH) of 0.5% to form the complexes (DH = 0.0%) and (DH = 0.5%), respectively. Subsequently, the structural characteristics of complex (DH = 0.5%) and WPI were characterized and the color retention rates of both complexes and MRPs were investigated under different pretreatment conditions. The results showed that the maximum binding constant of WPI with MRPs was 0.670 ± 0.06 U-1 and the maximum binding capacity was 180 U/g. Furthermore, the thermal degradation of complex (DH = 0.0%), complex (DH = 0.5%), and MRPs in a water bath at 50-100 °C followed a first-order kinetic model. Thus, the interaction of WPI with MRPs could alter the protein conformation of WPI and effectively protect the stability of MRPs.

Abstract
Hypoxia induce right ventricular dysfunction in human heart, but the molecular mechanism remains limited. As known, cyclooxygenases (COX) and lipoxygenases (LOX) play a key role in the cardiovascular system under hypoxia. 3,4',5,7-Tetrahydroxyflavone (THF), which widely exists in a variety of plants and vegetables, is famous for good ability to relieve cardiac injury, but the mechanism remains to be further understood. In this study, we firstly estimated the preventive role of THF against hypoxia-induced right ventricular dysfunction. Metabolomics analysis showed there were differential metabolites involved in above process, which helped us to screen the crucial regulated enzymes of these metabolites. Molecular docking and multi-spectroscopic revealed the molecular mechanism of interaction between THF and COX/LOX. Results suggested that THF bound to COX/LOX through static quenching and these bindings were driven by hydrogen bonds. After binding with THF, the secondary structure of COX/LOX was changed. In general, this study indicated that THF inhibited COX/LOX by spontaneously forming complexes with them.

Abstract
Incorporating LA into whey protein by forming whey protein isolate-LA (WPI-LA) and polymerized whey protein-LA (PWP-LA) complexes is a good way to maintain its bioactivity and improve its functional performance within food matrices. Herein, we found that WPI and PWP were able to interact with LA as suggested by multi-spectroscopy, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations. The interaction between whey protein and LA was a spontaneous non-covalent binding process, while PWP had a higher affinity for LA than WPI, resulting from its more negatively binding free energy with LA. Hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and electrostatic interactions were responsible for WPI-LA interactions. Hydrophobic forces, van der Waals, and hydrogen bonds positively accounted for PWP-LA interactions. The antioxidant activity of LA was improved by complexation with whey proteins as identified by DPPH and ABTS. The antimicrobial efficiency of LA was partially screened by complexation with whey protein with MIC values increased by seven-fold compared to free LA but successfully recovered to its original efficiency upon isolating it from the complex. This work demonstrates the promising antioxidant and antibacterial activities of the whey protein-LA complex and provides a good candidate for developing a new class of natural functional ingredients for food systems.

Abstract
This study focused on the non-covalent interaction between soybean protein isolate (SPI) and β-carotene (BC). The conformational changes of SPI with β-carotene in varying proportions (BC/SPI: 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10%) were investigated by multi-spectroscopy and molecular docking. Results showed that the quenching mode is static quenching and binding affinity increased with temperature. The stoichiometry was 1:1, indicating there was only one binding site in SPI. The binding was based on entropy and primarily driven by hydrophobic interactions and its binding constant was in the order of 104 L⋅mol–1. The addition of the β-carotene affected the secondary structure of SPI resulting in an increase in α-Helix and a decrease in random coil and β-turn content, indicating protein aggregated and hydrophobic interactions occurred. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) verified that no new larger molecular weight substance was formed and no covalent interaction existed. Molecular docking corroborated that electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions were both involved in the formation of complexes, where hydrophobic interaction was the dominant one. Moreover, β-carotene improved 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, foaming capacity, and emulsifying stability of SPI. These findings provide useful information about the interaction mechanism of SPI and β-carotene, which contributes to the further development and application of SPI products rich in β-carotene in the food industry.

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2022; 21:4378-4401. [PMID: 36018502 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.13026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
The health benefits of anthocyanins are compromised by their chemical instability and susceptibility to external stress. Researchers found that the interaction between anthocyanins and macromolecular components such as proteins and polysaccharides substantially determines the stability of anthocyanins during food processing and storage. The topic thus has attracted much attention in recent years. This review underlines the new insights gained in our current study of physical and chemical properties and functional properties in complex food systems. It examines the interaction between anthocyanins and food proteins or polysaccharides by focusing on the "structure-stability" relationship. Furthermore, multispectral and molecular computing simulations are used as the chief instruments to explore the interaction's mechanism. During processing and storage, the stability of anthocyanins is generally influenced by the adverse characteristics of food and beverage, including temperature, light, oxygen, enzymes, pH. While the action modes and types between protein/polysaccharide and anthocyanins mainly depend on their structures, the noncovalent interaction between them is the key intermolecular force that increases the stability of anthocyanins. Our goal is to provide the latest understanding of the stability of anthocyanins under food processing conditions and further improve their utilization in food industries. Practical Application: This review provides support for the steady-state protection of active substances.

Abstract
Milk proteins have received much awareness due to their bioactivity. However, their encapsulation functions have not attracted enough attention. Milk proteins as encapsulation walls can increase the bioavailability of bioactive compounds. As the benefits of bioactive compounds are critically determined by bioavailability, the effect of interactions between milk proteins and active substances is a critical topic. In the present review, we summarize the effects of milk proteins as encapsulation walls on the bioavailability of active substances with a special focus. The methods and mechanisms of interactions between milk proteins and active substances are also discussed. The evidence collected in the present review suggests that when active substances are encapsulated by milk proteins, the bioavailability of active substances can be significantly affected. This review also provides valuable guidelines for the use of milk protein-based microcarriers.

Abstract
The non-covalent interaction between anthocyanin and dietary protein had an impact on their physicochemical property. The purpose of this study was to study the non-covalent interaction mechanism between rose anthocyanin extract (RAEs) and whey protein isolate (WPI), and further compare the interaction mechanism with pure anthocyanin (PC) and WPI. At pH 3.0 and pH 7.0, RAEs and WPI had non-covalent interactions in the two systems with two types of unequal and mutually influencing binding sites, and the interaction forces were both hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. Interestingly, PC and WPI also had non-covalent interactions in both systems, the number of which binding sites was about one type, and the forces were hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. In addition, a variety of spectral combination techniques indicated that RAEs and PC caused similar changes in the secondary structure of WPI.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP1B) is a novel and indispensable drug target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Procyanidins are flavonoids that exhibit a significant hypoglycemic function. However, the potential inhibitory effects of procyanidins on PTP1B are unclear. In this study, the interaction mechanisms of PTP1B with procyanidin B1 (PB1) and procyanidin B2 (PB2) were investigated through kinetics analysis, UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism spectroscopy and molecular docking. The results showed that PB1 and PB2 could inhibit the activity of PTP1B in a mixed inhibition mode, which was one of the reversible inhibition types. Multi-spectral analysis showed that PB1/PB2 formed complexes with PTP1B, which effectively quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of PTP1B based on the static mechanism. The values of the binding constants were KS(PTP1B-PB1) = 4.06 × 102 L·mol-1 and KS(PTP1B-PB2) = 2.53 × 102 L·mol-1, indicating that the binding affinity of PTP1B to PB1 was higher than that for PB2. PB1 and PB2 both changed the secondary structure of the enzyme, thereby decreasing the PTP1B activity. Thermodynamic investigations revealed that the binding of procyanidin B1 and B2 to PTP1B was spontaneous in both cases, and highlighted the key role of hydrophobic interactions. Molecular docking analysis provided further information regarding the interactions between PB1 or PB2 and the amino acid residues of PTP1B. Moreover, PB1 and PB2 were found to down-regulate the expression level of PTP1B in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells. These findings are the first to elucidate the inhibitory effects of PB1 and PB2 on PTP1B, and highlight the role of procyanidins as dietary supplements in regulating T2DM.

Abstract
The interaction mechanism between whey protein isolate (WPI) and flavonoids was investigated based on the spectrofluorometric and theoretical methods in this study. The binding capacities of 15 flavonoids with WPI were compared. Then, the 3D-QSAR model describing their binding behavior was established to illustrate the effect of flavonoid structure on binding. It was found that the flavonoids with electronegative group at C-3 or large substituent at C-3 and C-7 possessed high binding performance. The thermodynamic analysis further indicated the hydrophobic force was the main driving force for binding of WPI and flavonoids. Both synchronous and 3D fluorescence analysis suggested that the microenvironment around tryptophan residues had changed, which coincided with the result of molecular docking that tryptophan residue of α-lactalbumin contributed significantly to hydrogen bonding. Our results suggested that the combination of 3D-QSAR and molecular docking may prompt the interaction research between food-derived proteins and polyphenols.

Abstract
Studying the interactions of biopolymers like polysaccharides and proteins is quite important mainly due to the wide number of applications such as the stabilization and encapsulation of active compounds in complex systems. Complexation takes place when materials like proteins and polysaccharides are blended to promote the entrapment of active compounds. The interaction forces between the charged groups in the polymeric chains allow the miscibility of the components in the complex system. Understanding the interactions taking place between the polymers as well as between the wall material and the active compound is important when designing delivery systems. However, some features of the biopolymers like structure, functional groups, or electrical charge as well as extrinsic parameters like pH or ratios might affect the structure and the performance of the complex system when used in encapsulation applications. This work summarizes the recent progress of the polysaccharide/protein complexes for encapsulation and the influence of the pH on the structural modifications during the complexation process.

Abstract
The molecular interactions of xylitol (XY) with α-casein (α-CN) and κ-casein (κ-CN) at pH 7.4 as a function of temperature (298, 308, and 318 K) were characterized by multispectral techniques and molecular docking. The fluorescence results showed that XY strongly quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of α- and κ-CN by static quenching, as well as the presence of a single binding site for XY on both proteins with a binding constant value of ∼105 L/mol. The binding affinity of both proteins for XY decreased with increasing temperature, and Van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding and protonation were the key forces in the interactions. The addition of XY altered the polarity of the microenvironment of proteins and changed their secondary structure from ordered to disordered. The molecular docking results showed that XY had different binding sites to α- and κ-CN, with several amino acids involved in the binding processes.

The non-covalent interaction between two polyphenols and caseinate as affected by two types of enzymatic protein crosslinking. Food Chem 2021; 364:130375. [PMID: 34167009 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.130375] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2021] [Revised: 06/08/2021] [Accepted: 06/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Caseinate was crosslinked by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or microbial transglutaminase (TGase) and mixed with kaempferol and quercetin at 293-313 K (i.e. 20-40 °C), respectively. Generally, these two polyphenols dose-dependently induced fluorescent quenching in caseinate or its crosslinked products via a static mechanism, while enzymatic crosslinking endowed caseinate with higher affinity for the polyphenols with increased apparent binding constants [(9.94-168.77) × 105versus (4.92-6.53) × 105 L/mol], unchanged binding site number and slightly shortened binding distance. To form protein-polyphenol complexes, hydrophobic force was the main driving force for the HRP-crosslinked caseinate and unreacted caseinate, while hydrogen-bonds and van der Waals force were the main driving forces for the TGase-crosslinked caseinate. Overall, quercetin was more potent than kaempferol to bind to the proteins, while TGase-mediated caseinate crosslinking induced the highest affinity to the polyphenols with the largest ΔG decrease. Thus, two types of crosslinking impacted the driving forces, apparent binding constant and thermodynamic indices of caseinate-polyphenol interaction.

Abstract
The processing stability and antioxidant capacity of blueberry anthocyanins (ANs) in the presence of whey protein isolate (WPI) were examined. WPI was found to enhance both the stability and antioxidant activity of ANs during processing and simulated in vitro digestion, especially at a concentration of 0.15 mg·mL-1. Fluorescence and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy showed that ANs were primarily stabilized by hydrophobic forces between WPI and malvidin-3-O-galactoside (M3G), the major anthocyanin monomer. Circular dichroism and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed that the structure of WPI changed and the microenvironments of certain amino acid residues were modulated by non-covalent binding to M3G; furthermore, fewer α-helices and more β-sheets were formed. Molecular docking studies revealed that WPI, especially immunoglobulin (IgG), contributed the most to ANs stability via hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic forces according to molecular docking scores (-141.30 kcal/mol). These results provided an important fundamental basis for improving the stabilities of ANs in milk systems.

Abstract
The objective of this work was to study β-carotene functionalities (color and antioxidant activity) and practical limitations (aggregate formation, poor solubility and low stability) when included in the aqueous systems containing milk proteins. According to the results, self-association constant of β-carotene in the presence of casein is 1.7-fold of that calculated for WPI. Casein and WPI were capable of conserving β-carotene against chemical oxidation up to 15 and 12%, respectively, at 1:5 M ratio of β-carotene to protein. While, WPI reduced its photodegradation quantum yield from 0.03 to 0.012 compared to 0.017 obtained for casein. A 2.7- and 3.6-fold enhancement in β-carotene solubility was observed in the presence of 1.5 mg/mL of casein and WPI, respectively. The study of β-carotene interaction with proteins showed, on the one hand, a negative effect on electron transfer and, on the other hand, improved hydrogen transfer to the radical species in the solution.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, which can be counteracted by inhibition of α-glucosidase and α-amylase, both involved in the carbohydrate metabolism. Fourteen C-glucosidic ellagitannins and three galloylated glucoses were studied as potential α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibitors. Most of the compounds were found to be moderate inhibitors of α-amylase, but potent inhibitors of α-glucosidase, showing low-micromolar IC50 values, far lower than that of the antidiabetic drug acarbose. This selectivity can be an advantage for their possible application as functional food ingredients with anti-diabetic properties because strong α-amylase inhibition generally causes undesired side effects. The best inhibitors were selected for further studies. Intrinsic fluorescence measurements confirmed their high affinity towards α-glucosidase, highlighting a static quenching mechanism. Circular dichroism measurements and kinetics of inhibition indicated that the most active C-glucosidic ellagitannin roburin D (RobD) is a competitive inhibitor, whereas α-pentagalloylglucose (α-PGG) acts as a mixed-type inhibitor.

Abstract
Anthocyanins as one of the main natural groups of food colorants undergo quick color fading, which can be diminished through protein association. The stabilization of cyanidin-3-glucoside (CYG) through binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated at pH 3.0 using atomic force microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry along with UV-Vis absorption, steady-state fluorescence, circular dichroism, and three-dimensional emission spectral analyses merged with the multivariate curve resolution-alternative least square method. The stabilized CYG molecules were found at the site II of BSA with combined static and dynamic quenching mechanisms. Approximately 93% of the BSA binding sites were occupied in the BSA-CYG complex through hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces with the binding constant and stoichiometry ratio of 1.88 × 105 M-1 and 1:13, respectively. The results also revealed that CYG molecules caused partial unfolding of the BSA structure, while it was not enough for significant alteration of denaturation temperature. The binding results also indicated that the reduction of H2O2-induced-CYG oxidation rate (34.78%) at pH 3.0 was mainly driven via the BSA-hemiketal association, although the colored species of CYG had a greater affinity towards BSA in the equilibrated system at pHs 1.0 and 5.0.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and chlortetracycline (CTC) interactions with the allergenic milk protein casein (CAS) were here evaluated simulating food conditions. The antibiotics assessed interact with CAS through static quenching and form non-fluorescent complexes. At 30 °C, the binding constant (Kb) varied from 0.05 to 1.23 × 106 M-1. Tetracycline interacts with CAS preferably through electrostatic forces, while oxytetracycline and chlortetracycline interactions occur by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. The interaction process is spontaneous, and the magnitude of interaction based on Kb values, followed the order: TC < CTC < OTC. The distances between the donor (protein) and the receptors (TC, OTC, and CTC) were determined by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and varied from 3.67 to 4.08 nm. Under natural feeding conditions, the citrate decreased the affinity between TC and CAS; a similar effect was observed for OTC in the presence of Ca(II), Fe(III) and lactose. Synchronized and three-dimensional (3D) fluorescence studies indicated alterations in the original protein conformation due to the interaction process, which may influence allergenic processes. In addition, complexation with CAS modulated the antimicrobial activity of CTC against S. aureus, demonstrated that the interaction process possibly alters the biological properties of antibiotics and the own protein, in the food conditions.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Non-covalent interactions and in vitro radical scavenging activities of the complexes formed by the commercial milk protein product caseinate and one of the two polyphenols (galangin and genistein) were assessed by the multi-spectroscopic techniques, molecular docking, and detection of scavenging activities against the 1,1–diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and hydroxyl radicals. The caseinate bound with the two polyphenols showed conformational changes and increased scavenging activities, compared with original caseinate. The caseinate-polyphenol binding was driven by the hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen-bonds, while hydrophobic interaction was the main binding force. Meanwhile, sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea could damage the essential hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen-bonds, respectively, and thus led to decreased apparent binding constants for the caseinate-polyphenol binding. Based on the measured values of several apparent thermodynamic parameters like ΔH, ΔS, ΔG, and donor–acceptor distance as well as the detected radical scavenging activity, galangin having more planar stereochemical structure and random B-ring rotation always had higher affinity for caseinate than genistein having location isomerism and twisted stereochemical structure, while the caseinate-galangin complex showed higher radical scavenging activity than the caseinate-genistein complex. It is thus concluded that both chemical and stereochemical structures of polyphenols are crucial to the affinity of polyphenols for protein and antioxidant activities of the protein-polyphenol complexes.

Abstract
The non-covalent interactions between a commercial whey protein isolate (WPI) and two bioactive polyphenols galangin and genistein were studied at pH 6.8 via the multi-spectroscopic assays and molecular docking. When forming these WPI-polyphenol complexes, whey proteins had changed secondary structures while hydrophobic interaction was the major driving force. Detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate destroyed the hydrophobic interaction and thus decreased apparent binding constants of the WPI-polyphenol interactions. Urea led to hydrogen-bonds breakage and protein unfolding, and therefore increased apparent binding constants. Based on the measured apparent thermodynamic parameters like ΔH, ΔS, ΔG, and donor-acceptor distance, galangin with more planar stereochemical structure and random B-ring rotation showed higher affinity for WPI than genistein with location isomerism and twisted stereochemical structure. The molecular docking results disclosed that β-lactoglobulin of higher average hydrophobicity had better affinity for the two polyphenols than α-lactalbumin of lower average hydrophobicity while β-lactoglobulin possessed very similar binding sites to the two polyphenols. It is concluded that polyphenols might have different non-covalent interactions with food proteins, depending on the crucial polyphenol structures and protein hydrophobicity.
