Abstract
Metallosurfactants offer important scientific and technological advances due to their novel interfacial properties. As a special class of structures formed by the integration of metal ions into amphiphilic surfactant molecules, these metal-based amphiphilic molecules possess both organometallic and surface chemistries. This review critically examines the structural transitions of metallosurfactants from micelle to vesicle upon metal coordination. The properties of a metallosurfactant can be changed by tuning the coordination between the metal ions and surfactants. The self-assembled behavior of surfactants can be controlled by selecting transition-metal ions that enhance their catalytic efficiency in environmental applications by applying a hydrogen evolution reaction or oxygen evolution reaction. We present the different scattering techniques available to examine the properties of metallosurfactants (e.g., size, shape, structure, and aggregation behavior). The utility of metallosurfactants in catalysis, the synthesis of nanoparticles, and biomedical applications (involving diagnostics and therapeutics) is also explored.

Abstract
Various peptide drugs have entered the market with the development of molecular biology. Peptide drugs are used for treat diseases such as diabetes, breast cancer, and HIV infection. In this study, three nicotinamide-modified peptides were synthesized by modifying the N-terminus of BRCA1 (856-871, Y856R, K862Y, R866W) peptide with three nicotinic acid derivatives using solid-phase peptide synthesis. The results of calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) binding activity indicated that binding constants of BRCA1 (856-871, Y856R, K862Y, R866W) (P0) and three nicotinamide-modified peptides (P1, P2, and P3) to ctDNA were 1.89 × 103, 2.97 × 104, 7.61 × 104, and 8.09 × 104 L·mol-1, respectively. The binding affinity of the modified peptides was superior to that of BRCA1 (856-871, Y856R, K862Y, R866W). ΔHθ < 0 and ΔSθ < 0 indicated that van der Waals force and hydrogen bond contributed most to peptide-ctDNA binding. Results obtained by Circular dichroism (CD) indicated that peptide binding interaction led to conformational changes in ctDNA. Ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectroscopy, ethidium bromide (EB) competition experiments, DNA melting experiments, and viscosity measurements verified that peptides interacted with ctDNA via groove binding. Ionic strength experiments manifested that electrostatic binding was also involved in peptide-ctDNA binding.

Cationic Single-Chained Surfactants with a Functional Group at the End of the Hydrophobic Tail DNA Compacting Efficiency. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13040589.

Abstract
The interaction between calf-thymus DNA, ctDNA, and various single-chained surfactants with different functional groups at the end of hydrophobic tail was studied with the goal of investigating the influence of the functional group nature on surfactant DNA compacting efficiency. The surfactants investigated were dodecyltriethylammonium bromide (DTEABr), triethyl(1-phenoxydodecyl)ammonium bromide (12PhBr), triethyl(2-naphthoxydodecyl)ammonium bromide (12NBr) and 11-(isonicotinoyloxy)-N,N,N-triethyl-1-undecanaminium bromide (11PyBr). Results made evident that the surfactants' tendencies to self-aggregation is the key factor determining their efficiency to compact the nucleic acid. Subsequently, DOPE/12NBr/pEGFP-C1 lipoplexes, with different cationic surfactant molar fractions (α) and mass ratios (L/D), were prepared and characterized. DOPE is a zwitterionic phospholipid 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine, and the plasmid pEGFP-C1 carries a GFP coding sequence with the necessary regulatory elements for constitutive expression of the gene in human cells. 12NBr was chosen because it was the most efficient DNA compacting agent among the surfactants investigated. Finally, the cytotoxicity and transfection efficiency (TE) of DOPE/12NBr/pDNA lipoplexes, with different compositions, were investigated.

Influence of the degree of oligomerization of surfactants on the DNA/surfactant interaction. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2019; 182:110399. [PMID: 31377609 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2019.110399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2019] [Revised: 07/16/2019] [Accepted: 07/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The interaction between calf thymus DNA, ctDNA, and a series of oligomeric surfactants derived from N-benzyl-N,N-dimethyl-N-(1-dodecyl)ammonium chloride is investigated. The influence of the surfactants' degree of oligomerization (2, 3 and 4) on the ctDNA/surfactant interaction is studied, as well as the effect of the structure of the spacer group linking the individual surfactant fragments. In particular, the effect of the distance between the positive charges and the hydrophobic chains within the oligomers on these interactions was examined, by using the three positional isomers (i.e., ortho-, meta-, and para-) with the rigid xylidene moiety as spacer. Results show that the dimeric ("gemini") surfactants are much more efficient in the inversion of the nucleic acid charge than the single-chained (monomeric) surfactant. Whereas the ortho - isomer causes a partial condensation, the meta - and para - isomers can completely condense ctDNA. The meta - and para - isomers of the trimeric surfactants can also completely condense the polynucleotide. In contrast, the tetrameric surfactant investigated does not change the morphology of the nucleic acid from an elongated coil into a compacted form, in spite of effectively inverting the nucleic acid's charge in their complex. Accordingly, the capacity for ctDNA compaction of oligomeric surfactants is not simply correlated to their degree of oligomerization, but depends on a complex balance of the number and relative distance of cationic charges and/or hydrophobic tails in the surfactants for effectively interacting with the nucleic acid to form the appropriate complex. This information will help to design more effective cationic surfactants as non-viral vectors for gene therapy.

Abstract
For the first time, drying pattern of a sessile droplet of genomic DNA, in the presence of hematite nanoparticles was sighted by polarizing optical microscopy (POM) in this research article. POM results indicated that only at an appreciably high concentration of hematite nanoparticles dried pattern of deoxyribonucleic acid from calf thymus (CT-DNA) was altered. Iron hybridized cetylpyridinium chloride was utilized for the preparation of iron oxide nanoparticles through hydrothermal method. Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD) studies confirmed the formation of highly crystalline hematite i.e. α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. Morphology of the synthesized nanoparticle was visualized by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), which revealed that nanoparticles were rhombohedral in shape with a size of 45 ± 10 nm. Based upon all the findings, hydrothermal growth mechanism was also proposed having bilayer protection of surfactant around the nanoparticles. UV-Vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy were explored to study the affinity of thus prepared nanoparticles towards calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (CT-DNA). The low value of binding constant calculated from the spectroscopy data confirmed the weak interaction between nanoparticles and the CT-DNA.
