[PMID: 37498152 DOI: 10.1080/07391102.2023.2240420] [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: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the interaction of alpha-2-macroglobulin (α2M) with naringenin using multi-spectroscopic, molecular docking, and molecular simulation approaches to identify the functional changes and structural variations in the α2M structure. Our study suggests that naringenin compromised α2M anti-proteinase activity. The results of absorption spectroscopy and fluorescence measurement showed that naringenin-α2M formed a complex with a binding constant of (kb)∼104, indicative of moderate binding. The value of ΔG° in the binding indicates the process to be spontaneous and the major force responsible to be hydrophobic interaction. The findings of FRET reveal the binding distance between naringenin and the amino acids of α2M was 2.82 nm. The secondary structural analysis of α2M with naringenin using multi-spectroscopic methods like synchronous fluorescence, red-edge excitation shift (REES), FTIR, and CD spectra further confirmed the significant conformational alterations in the protein. Molecular docking approach reveals the interactions between naringenin and α2M to be hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and pi interactions, which considerably favour and stabilise the binding. Molecular dynamics modelling simulations also supported the steady binding with the least RMSD deviations. Our study suggests that naringenin interacts with α2M to alter its confirmation and compromise its activity.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Conformational changes induced by selected flavor compounds from spices regulate the binding ability of myofibrillar proteins to aldehyde compounds. Food Chem 2024; 451:139455. [PMID: 38678659 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139455] [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: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Interactions among flavor compounds from spices (FCS) and myofibrillar proteins (MP) were investigated. Fluorescence and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions were the main binding forces between FCS and MP. The FCS increased the particle size and SH content of MP and caused a reduction of zeta potential from -5.23 to -6.50 mV. Furthermore, FCS could modify the binding ability of MP and aldehydes. Eugenol reduced the ability of MP to bond with aldehydes by 22.70-47.87 %. Molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated that eugenol may combat nonanal to attain binding site of amino acid residue (PHE165) and induce protein conformational changes. Electrostatic interactions and van der Waals forces within myosin-nonanal may be disrupted by these alterations, which could reduce stability of complex and cause release of nonanal. This study could provide new insights into regulating the ability of proteins to release and hold flavors.

Abstract
Phytosterol (PS) is a steroid, and its bioavailability can be enhanced by interacting with protein in the C-24 hydroxyl group. The interaction between sterols and amino acid residues in proteins can be enhanced by enzymatic hydrolysis. Phytosterol and whey insulation hydrolysates (WPH1-4) fabricated by the Alcalase enzyme at different enzymatic hydrolysis times were selected as delivery systems to simulate sterol C-24 hydroxyl group interaction with protein. Increasing hydrolysis time can promote the production of β-Lg, which raises the ratio of β-turn in the secondary structure and promotes the formation of interaction between WPH and PS. The correlation coefficient between hydrogen bonds and encapsulation efficiency (EE) and bioaccessibility is 0.91 and 0.88 (P < 0.05), respectively, indicating that hydrogen bonds of two components significantly influenced the combination by concealing the hydrophobic amino acids and some residues, which improved PS EE and bioavailability by 3.03 and 2.84 times after PS was combined with the WPI hydrolysate. These findings are expected to enhance the absorption of PS and other macromolecules by protein enzymatic hydrolysis to broaden their applications for food.

Abstract
With the increasingly mature research on protein-based multi-component systems at home and abroad, the current research on protein-based functional systems has also become a hot spot and focus in recent years. In the functional system, the types of functional factors and their interactions with other components are usually considered to be the subjective factors of the functional strength of the system. Because this process is accompanied by the transfer of protons and electrons in the system, it has antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Polyphenols and polysaccharides have the advantages of wide source, excellent functionality and good compatibility with proteins, and have become excellent and representative functional factors. However, polyphenols and polysaccharides are usually accompanied by poor stability, poor solubility and low bioavailability when used as functional factors. Therefore, the effect of separate release and delivery will inevitably lead to non-significant or direct degradation. After forming a multi-component composite system with the protein, the functional factor will form a stable system driven by hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic forces and electrostatic forces between the functional factor and the protein. When used as a delivery system, it will protect the functional factor, and when released, through the specific recognition of the cell membrane receptor signal, the effect of fixed-point delivery is achieved. In addition, this multi-component composite system can also form a functional composite film by other means, which has a long-term significance for prolonging the shelf life of food and carrying out specific antibacterial.

Abstract
Chitosan (CTS) and chitosan oligosaccharides (COS) have been widely applied in food industry due to their bioactivities and functions. However, CTS and COS with positive charges could interact with proteins, such as whey protein isolate (WPI), influencing their digestion. Interaction among CTS/COS, FUC, and WPI/enzymes was studied by spectroscopy, chromatography, and chemical methods in order to reveal the role of FUC in relieving the inhibition of protein digestibility by CTS/COS and demonstrate the action mechanisms. As shown by the results, the addition of FUC increased degree of hydrolysis (DH) and free protein in the mixture of CTS and WPI to 3.1-fold and 1.8-fold, respectively, while raise DH value and free protein in the mixture of COS and WPI to 6.7-fold and 1.2-fold, respectively. The interaction between amino, carboxyl, sulfate, and hydroxyl groups from carbohydrates and protein could be observed, and notably, FUC could interact with CTS/COS preferentially to prevent CTS/COS from combining with WPI. In addition, the addition of FUC could also relieve the combination of CTS to trypsin, increasing the fluorescence intensity and concentration of trypsin by 83.3 % and 4.8 %, respectively. Thus, the present study demonstrated that FUC could alleviate the inhibitory effect of CTS/COS on protein digestion.

Abstract
This study develops hemp seed globulin (GLB)-alginate (ALG) nanoparticles (GANPs) for Cannabisin A (CA) stabilization under environmental stress and during pepsin digestion. The optimal GLB: ALG mass ratio of 1: 1.5 was determined for GANPs formation at pH 3.5, resulting in a high yield of 95.13 ± 0.91 %, a ζ-potential of -35.73 ± 1.04 mV, a hydrodynamic diameter of 470.67 ± 11.36 nm, and a PDI of 0.298 ± 0.016. GANPs were employed to encapsulate CA, achieving a high loading capacity of 13.48 ± 0.04 μg mg-1. FTIR analysis demonstrated that the formation of CA-GLB-ALG nanoparticles (CGANPs) involves electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interactions. XRD and DSC analyses revealed that CA is amorphous within the CGANPs. CGANPs demonstrated remarkable dispersion stability as well as resistance to high ionic strength and high-temperature treatments, indicating their potential as efficient hydrophobic drug-delivery vehicles. When compared to free CA, CA coated within CGANPs displayed greater DPPH/ABTS scavenging activity. Furthermore, the ALG-shelled nanoparticles protected GLB from pepsin digestion and slowed the release of CA throughout the release process, extending their stay on the intestinal wall mucosa. These findings imply that CGANPs is an ideal delivery vehicle for CA as they may expand the application of CA in food items.

Abstract
This study aimed to examine how the addition of etheric compounds (EC) affects the characteristics of myofibrillar proteins (MP) and to understand underlying interaction mechanisms. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed that the EC-MP complex was formed through hydrogen bonding. The addition of EC resulted in an increase in the α-helix content and a decrease in the β-sheet content of MP, which would promote the protein unfolding. The unfolding of MP led to aggregation and formation of larger and non-uniform particles. As a result, the exposure of negative charge on the MP surface was enhanced, and zeta potential was decreased from -5.33 mV to -7.45 mV. Moreover, the EC-induced modification of MP conformation resulted in a less rigid three-dimensional network structure of MP gel and enhanced the discharge of aldehyde compounds (C > 6). Moreover, the rheological characteristics of MP were enhanced by the suppression of protein-protein interactions due to the MP unfolding. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed that anethole reduced the binding capacity of myosin to decanal by raising its binding energy from -22.22 kcal/mol to -19.38 kcal/mol. In the meantime, anethole competed for the amino acid residue (PHE165) where myosin connects to decanal. This caused the hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic contacts between the two molecules to dissolve, altering myosin's conformation and releasing decanal. The results might be useful in predicting and controlling the ability of proteins to release and hold onto flavors.

Abstract
This study focused on elucidating the non-covalent interactions between hemp seed globulin (GLB) and two hemp seed phenolic compounds, Cannabisin A (CA) and Cannabisin B (CB), and to explore these interactions on the protein's structure, conformation, and functionality. Fluorescence quenching and thermodynamic analysis revealed that static quenching governed non-covalent interaction processes, with hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces functioning as major forces. This was further substantiated by molecular docking studies. The binding affinity order was CA > CB, indicating that the specific phenolic compound had a notable impact on the binding affinity. Furthermore, when complexed with CA, Tyr and Trp residues were exposed to a more hydrophilic environment than when complexed with CB. It was noted that the complexation with either CA or CB consistently affects GLB's secondary structure, particle size, and ζ-potential. GLB treated with the phenolic compounds exhibited enhanced ABTS and DPPH scavenging activities and improved digestibility compared to untreated GLB. Furthermore, the non-covalent interactions significantly increased CA's water solubility, highlighting GLB as a promising natural carrier for hydrophobic bioactive components. These findings hold potential implications for enhancing hemp seed protein applications within the food industry by positively influencing its functional properties and bioactivity.

Covalent modification of soy protein hydrolysates by EGCG: Improves the emulsifying and antioxidant properties. Food Res Int 2023; 164:112317.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of EGCG conjugation on the emulsifying and antioxidant properties of SPHs was investigated to improve the functional characteristic of soy protein hydrolysates (SPHs) and develop a novel hydrolysates/peptides-EGCG conjugates. Enzymatic hydrolyzed SPHs (DH 5%, 8%, 10%) covalent with 1% EGCG to prepare conjugates at pH 9.0. The free amino group and tryptophan content of SPHs-EGCG conjugates significantly decreased, indicating the successful preparation of SPHs-EGCG conjugates. Additionally, 5% SPHs-EGCG conjugates showed the highest EGCG binding capacity. EGCG conjugation increased the particle sizes and charge of SPHs. Compared with non-covalent SPHs, the covalent modification of EGCG increased the emulsifying and antioxidant capacity, especially for 5% SPHs-EGCG, it exhibited much higher surface hydrophobicity, ESI (emulsifying stability index), EAI (emulsifying activity index), and antioxidant activity than others. This result revealed that SPHs and EGCG played a synergistic effect in improving the emulsifying and antioxidant capacity. Fluorescence spectroscopy analysis showed that the combination of EGCG conjugation significantly decreased the fluorescence intensity and caused maximum emission red-shift. The formation of a covalent bond between SPHs and EGCG was verified through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the results also showed a significant increase in the α-helix and random coil contents of the conjugation, and a significant decrease in the β-sheet and β-turn contents. These results indicate that EGCG conjugation with SPHs induced the unfolding and stretching of protein flexibility. Overall, SPHs-EGCG conjugates can be applied as a promising emulsifier to fabricate emulsion systems and would be helpful in designing functional beverages containing polyphenols and peptides with enhanced functional nutritional properties.

Abstract
The conformational changes and functional properties of SPI induced by quercetin was investigated via fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and molecular docking. A decrease in the fluorescence intensity and a blue shift in the maximum wavelength were observed due to the binding process with fluorescent residues. The analysis of Stern-Volmer equation showed that the fluorescence quenching induced by quercetin took the form of static quenching, and the binding stoichiometry between SPI and quercetin was 1:1. The values of ΔH and ΔS were both positive illustrating that hydrophobic interaction was the primary binding force between quercetin and SPI. Results of FTIR and CD indicated that the binding with quercetin changed the secondary structure of SPI, resulting in a partially unfolded and more flexible structure. SDS-PAGE confirmed there was no covalent interaction between the two constituents. Molecular docking demonstrated that there were stable configurations and high matching degrees in both 11S and 7S proteins with quercetin via hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. Meanwhile, modification by quercetin enhanced the foaming and emulsifying capacities of SPI. These findings might provide theory reference for elucidation the mechanism of polyphenols-proteins interaction and development of related food additive products in future.

Bioactivity of Two Polyphenols Quercetin and Fisetin against Human Gastric Adenocarcinoma AGS Cells as Affected by Two Coexisting Proteins. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27092877. [PMID: 35566228 PMCID: PMC9100528 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27092877] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
It is recognized that minor dietary components polyphenols have anticancer effects on digestive tract, lung, leukemia, and other cancers, while polyphenols also can covalently or noncovalently interact with major dietary components proteins such as casein, soybean proteins, whey proteins, and bovine serum albumin. Thus, whether the noncovalent interaction between the molecules of two polyphenols (quercetin and fisetin) and two proteins (bovine serum albumin and casein) has positive or negative impact on anticancer activities of the polyphenols against human gastric adenocarcinoma AGS cells was assessed in this study. The two polyphenols had obvious anticancer activities to the cells, because dose levels as low as 20-160 mmol/L caused reduced cell viability of 30.0-69.4% (quercetin) and 24.6-63.1% (fisetin) (using a cell treatment time of 24 h), or 9.9-48.6% (quercetin) and 6.4-29.9% (fisetin) (using a cell treatment time of 48 h). However, the cell treatments by the polyphenols in the presence of the two proteins mostly caused lower polyphenol activity toward the cells, compared with those treatments by the polyphenols in the absence of the proteins. Specifically, the presence of the proteins led to reduced growth inhibition in the cells, because higher cell viability of 33.2-86.7% (quercetin) and 29.1-77.7% (fisetin) at 24 h, or 14.1-66.8% (quercetin) and 7.9-59.0% (fisetin) at 48 h, were measured in these treated cells. The two coexisting proteins also yielded the polyphenol-treated cells with less mitochondrial membrane potential loss, less formation of reactive oxygen species, and decreased cell apoptosis. Thus, it is highlighted that the noncovalent interaction between dietary polyphenols and proteins resulted in weakened anticancer ability for the polyphenols to the gastric cancer cells.
