Abstract
This work lies in the growing concern over the potential impacts of pesticides on human health and the environment. Pesticides are extensively used to protect crops and control pests, but their interaction with essential biomolecules like haemoglobin (Hb) remains poorly understood. Spectrofluorometric, electrochemical, and in silico investigations have been chosen as potential methods to delve into this issue, as they offer valuable insights into the molecular-level interactions between pesticides and haemoglobin. The research aims to address the gaps in knowledge and contribute to developing safer and more sustainable pesticide practices. The interaction was studied by spectroscopic techniques (UV-Visible & Fluorescence), in silico studies (molecular docking & molecular dynamics simulations) and electrochemical techniques (cyclic voltammetry and tafel). The studies showed effective binding of dinotefuran with the Hb which will cause toxicity to human. The formation of a stable molecular complex between ofloxacin and Haemoglobin was shown via molecular docking and the binding energy was found to be -5.37 kcal/mol. Further, molecular dynamics simulations provide an insight for the stability of the complex (Hb-dinotefuran) for a span of 250 ns with a binding free energy of -53.627 kJ/mol. Further, cyclic voltammetry and tafel studies show the interaction of dinotefuran with Hb effectively.

Abstract
In this paper, the interaction of three berberine mid-chain fatty acid salts ([BBR][FAs]), viz. berberine caproate ([BBR][CAP]), berberine heptylate ([BBR][HEP]) and berberine octoate ([BBR][OCT]), with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by means of UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and molecular docking techniques. Fluorescence experiments revealed that three berberine salts quench the fluorescence of BSA by static quenching mechanism resulted from a stable [BBR][FAs]-BSA complex formation. The stoichiometric numbers of [BBR][FAs]-BSA complexes were found to be 1:1. Synchronous and three-dimensional fluorescence spectra as well as FT-IR demonstrated that the binding of [BBR][FAs] altered the microenvironment and conformation of BSA. The binding average distance from [BBR][FAs] to BSA (3.2-3.5 nm) was determined according to Förster energy transfer theory. Site probe investigation showed that [BBR][FAs] bound to BSA active site I (sub-domain IIA). The binding promotes the esterase-like activity of BSA. The molecular docking results confirmed the fluorescence competition findings and provided the type of binding forces. Furthermore, the relationship between the anionic chain length of [BBR][FAs] and the interaction was explored, and the positive correlation was found.

Abstract
Self-structure induction in a single stranded polyriboadenylic acid [poly (rA)] is an auspicious physiological phenomenon which switches off protein production in tumor cells. In the present study, the self-structure induction process in poly (rA) moiety was thoroughly investigated using various steady state and time resolved techniques. Optical melting pattern directly evidenced the formation of self-structured assembly in single stranded poly (rA) upon complexation with quinacrine. Further, UV-absorption spectroscopic studies revealed that quinacrine binds to poly (rA) in co-operative fashion and the indication of intercalative mode of binding first came out with the involvement of around two base pairs of poly (rA) in the complexation. Experimental observations established the unconventional or non-classical intercalation of quinacrine molecule inside self-structured duplex poly (rA) moiety. This complexation was accompanied with negative enthalpy change and positive entropy change; suggesting strong van der Waals and the H-bonding interactions as the major governing forces in the complexation. Moreover, ionic strength dependent binding study established that the non-polyelectrolytic forces were the dominating forces. Further, the photo physical behavior of QN was authenticated using time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) where both the ground and excited states were exploited.

Abstract
The interaction mechanism of hemoglobin (Hb) with bisphenol A (BPA) in diabetic patients and the difference with healthy people have been studied using spectroscopic and molecular docking techniques at several glucose (Glc) concentration, with bovine hemoglobin (BHb) instead of Hb. It is found that Glc can interact with BHb-BPA and affect its molecular structure, resulting in an altered microenvironment for tyrosine (Tyr) and tryptophan (Trp) in BHb-BPA. It is also found that Glc can bind to BHb alone, and its effect on the molecular structure of BHb is weaker than that on the structure of BHb in BHb-BPA complex. The results of circular dichroism (CD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicate that Glc causes an increase in the content of the α-helix and a decrease in that of the β-sheet of BHb-BPA by 1.5-1.9% and 3.1%, respectively. The results of molecular docking show that Glc binds to BHb-BPA through hydrogen and hydrophobic bonds, and the position of binding differs from that of Glc binding to BHb alone, which may be attributed to the fact that BPA affects the protein molecular structure of BHb and has an effect on the binding of BHb to Glc. This study provides some theoretical basis for the mechanism of BPA toxicity in vivo for people with different blood glucose levels.

Comparative assessment of 9-bromo noscapine ionic liquid and noscapine: Synthesis, in-vitro studies plus computational & biophysical evaluation with human hemoglobin. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 247:125791. [PMID: 37442512 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125791] [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: 04/15/2023] [Revised: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/09/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
Noscapine is a proficient anticancer drug active against wide variety of tumors including lung cancer. Over time, several noscapine analogues have been assessed to maximize the efficiency of the drug, amongst which 9-bromo noscapine remains one of the most potent analogues till date. In the present work, we have synthesized 9-bromo noscapine ionic liquid [9-Br-Nos]IBr2, an active pharmaceutical ingredient based ionic liquid (API-IL) to address the existing issues of solubility and targeted drug delivery in the parent alkaloid as well as the synthesized analogues. We have devised a novel two-step synthesis route (first-ever ionic to ionic bromination) to obtain the desired [9-Br-Nos]IBr2 which is advantageous to its organic analogue in terms of increased solubility, lesser reaction time and better yield. Furthermore, we have compared 9-bromo noscapine ionic liquid with noscapine based on its binding interaction with human hemoglobin (Hb) studied via computational along with spectroscopic studies, and bioactivity against non-small cell lung cancer. We inferred formation of a complex between [9-Br-Nos]IBr2 and Hb in the stoichiometric ratio of 1:1, similar to noscapine. At 298 K, [9-Br-Nos]IBr2-Hb binding was found to exhibit Kb and ∆G of 36,307 M-1 and -11.5 KJmol-1, respectively, as compared to 159 M-1 and -12.5 KJmol-1 during Noscapine-Hb binding. This indicates a more stronger and viable interaction between [9-Br-Nos]IBr2 and Hb than the parent compound. From computational studies, the observed higher stability of [9-Br-Nos]I and better binding affinity with Hb with a binding energy of -91.75 kcalmol-1 supported the experimental observations. In the same light, novel [9-Br-Nos]IBr2 was found to exhibit an IC50 = 95.02 ± 6.32 μM compared to IC50 = 128.82 ± 2.87 μM for noscapine on A549 (non-small lung cancer) cell line at 48 h. Also, the desired ionic liquid proved to be more cytotoxic inducing a mortality rate of 87 % relative to 66 % evoked by noscapine at concentrations of 200 μM after 72 h.

Abstract
A series of novel N-sulfonyl pyridinium fluorophores were designed, synthesized, and explored in terms of their ability to bind with serum albumins. Upon binding the fluorophores with BSA, noticeable emission wavelength or intensity changes accompanied by color changes were observed. Competitive binding studies revealed that the fluorophore selectively binds to the warfarin site, but the binding affinity also depends on the nature of the scaffold. Additionally, the fluorophores were employed to detect spiked serum albumin in artificial urine. Cellular imaging experiments indicated that the fluorophores accumulate within lipid droplets (LDs), suggesting their potential as promising biomarkers for lipid droplets. Furthermore, the fluorescence intensity, number, and size of LDs increased upon serum starvation.

Abstract
A series of pyrrolidine-based Pd(II) complexes, [Pd(AEP)Cl2] (C-1), [Pd(AEP)(OH2)2]2+(C-2), [Pd(AEP)(L-cys)]+ (C-3), [Pd(AEP)(N-ac-L-cys)] (C-4), [Pd(AEP)(GSH)] (C-5), and [Pd(AEP)(DL-meth)]2+ (C-6) (where, AEP = 1-(2-aminoethyl)pyrrolidine, L-cys = l-cysteine, N-ac-L-cys = N-acetyl-l-cysteine, GSH = glutathione, and DL-meth = dl-methionine), as anticancer drug candidates have been synthesized and characterized. The DNA binding property of the complexes was executed by gel electrophoresis and spectrophotometric and viscometric methods, and their interaction with BSA was also investigated by various spectroscopic methodologies. The binding activity of the Pd(II) complexes with DNA and BSA were assessed to evaluate their binding mode and binding constants. Molecular docking was performed to correlate with the experimental results on the interaction of the complexes with DNA and BSA. The changes in the microenvironmental and structural properties of BSA are monitored by a synchronous and 3D fluorescence study. The structural properties were evaluated by DFT and TD-DFT studies. The anticarcinogenic activity of the Pd(II) complexes was assessed by PASS prediction software to corroborate with the experimental results of the anticancer activity of the complexes. The ROS generation in cancer cell lines has been investigated, and the cell death mechanism through apoptosis was confirmed by measuring the protein expression. All these complexes have excellent anticancer activity compared to ancillary ligands. The cancer cell line (HCT116) shows almost similar or better cell inhibition activity when treated with the Pd(II) complexes compared to cisplatin, whereas the adverse effect is minimum on a normal cell (NKE). Both the Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes carrying the same ligands reveal almost similar antiproliferative activity.

Abstract
Ureases are enzymes produced by fungi, plants, and bacteria associated with agricultural and clinical problems. The urea hydrolysis in NH3 and CO2 leads to the loss of N-urea fertilizers in soils and changes the human stomach microenvironment, favoring the colonization of H. pylori. In this sense, it is necessary to evaluate potential enzyme inhibitors to mitigate the effects of their activities and respond to scientific and market demands to produce fertilizers with enhanced efficiency. Thus, biophysical and theoretical studies were carried out to evaluate the influence of the N-alkyl chain in benzoyl-thiourea derivatives on urease enzyme inhibition. A screening based on IC50, binding constants, and theoretical studies demonstrated that BTU1 without the N-alkyl chain (R = H) was more active than other compounds, so the magnitude of the interaction was determined as BTU1 > BTU2 > BTU3 > BTU4 > BTU5, corresponding to progressively increased chain length. Thus, BTU1 was selected for interaction and soil application essays. The binding constants (Kb) for the supramolecular urease-BTU1 complex ranged from 7.95 to 5.71 × 103 M-1 at different temperatures (22, 30, and 38 °C), indicating that the preferential forces responsible for the stabilization of the complex are hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces (ΔH = -15.84 kJ mol-1 and ΔS = -36.61 J mol-1 K-1). Theoretical and experimental results (thermodynamics, synchronous fluorescence, and competition assay) agree and indicate that BTU1 is a mixed inhibitor. Finally, urease inhibition was evaluated in the four soil samples, where BTU1 was as efficient as NBPT (based on ANOVA two-way and Tukey test with 95% confidence), with an average inhibition of 20% of urease activity. Thus, the biophysics and theoretical studies are strategies for evaluating potential inhibitors and showed that increasing the N-alkyl chain in benzoyl-thiourea derivatives did not favor urease inhibition.

Abstract
Nano-plastics (NPs), an emerging contaminant in the environment, have a larger specific surface area and can act as a carrier of other contaminants. Thus, insights into the interaction mechanisms between NPs and other pollutants are crucial for the assessment of environmental impacts of NPs in the ecosystems. In this study, the interaction mechanism between NPs and ofloxacin (OFL) were investigated via kinetics, fluorescence quenching, and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2DCOS). The adsorption kinetics of OFL on carboxyl-modified polystyrene (PS-COOH) and amine modified polystyrene (PS-NH2) closely fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetics model (R2 = 0.99). Adsorption kinetics indicated that chemical adsorption is dominant mechanism, and the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results showed that the electronic interaction, π-π, and H-binding were also involved in the adsorption process. OFL showed strong fluorescence quenching in the presence of NPs. Stern-Volmer quenching was negatively related with the temperature, which was dominated by the static type of quenching. 2DCOS indicated that the π-π conjugation was dominant in the interaction process, and the interaction process was dependent on the solution pH and salinity. Overall, this work provides new insights into the interaction mechanism of NPs and antibiotics in the aquatic ecosystems.

Abstract
Multispectroscopic and computational methods of exploring the interaction between a carrier protein and therapeutic compounds provide a preliminary investigation into establishing the efficacy of such compounds. Here, two coumarin derivatives, 7-hydroxycoumarin (7-HC) and 4-methyl-7-hydroxycoumarin (4-Me-7-HC), were selected to carry out numerous biophysical interaction studies with a model carrier protein, hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL). Fluorescence spectroscopy studies conducted between HEWL and 7-HC/4-Me-7-HC revealed the binding constants (Kb) were in the range of 104 M-1, indicating a moderate nature of binding. The quenching mechanism observed during complexation process was an unusual static quenching due to the effect of temperature on the rate constant. Thermodynamic parameters revealed a positive ΔH and ΔS for HEWL-7-HC/4-Me-7-HC, indicating hydrophobic forces played a dominant role in the interaction process. FRET studies suggested a possible non-radiative energy transfer from the donor (HEWL) to the acceptor (coumarins). Molecular docking studies revealed the interaction of 7-HC/4-Me-7-HC with intrinsic fluorophores, Trp63 and Trp108, Trp108 being an essential residue for binding as proven by molecular dynamic (MD) simulation. MD simulation studies also indicated conformational stability gained by HEWL upon interaction with 7-HC and 4-Me-7-HC. The microenvironment surrounding the Trp residues showed a significant Stoke's shift on carrying out 3-D fluorescence. CD studies revealed a decrease in the alpha helical content of HEWL upon interacting with the ligands. Enzymatic assay conducted for HEWL in the presence of 7-HC/4-Me-7-HC saw an increase in the activity of HEWL, suggesting a change in structural conformation and stability of the protein, altering its activity.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Exploring the binding mechanism and adverse toxic effects of chiral phenothrin to human serum albumin: Based on multi-spectroscopy, biochemical and computational approach. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 282:121659. [PMID: 35930945 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2022.121659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
To understand the binding mechanism of a mixture of chiral phenothrin with human serum albumin (HSA), we used multi-spectroscopy, including steady-state fluorescence spectroscopic titration, three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism, and FTIR spectra to explore the precise interactions between the complex. Based on the modified Stern-Volmer equation, the binding constant (Ka) was calculated under three temperatures, which revealed that phenothrin interacts with HSA through a static quenching mechanism. The thermodynamic parameters including enthalpy change (ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS) were determined by fitting the experimental data with van't Hoff equation, which indicates that electrostatic force and hydrogen bonds dominate the interplay in the phenothrin-HSA complex. Circular dichroism and FTIR showed the addition of phenothrin changed the secondary structure of proteins, in which the α-helicity decreased from 52.37% in free HSA to 50.02%. The esterase-like activity was reduced with the increase of phenothrin concentration, which may be attributed to the perturbated senior structure of HSA. Competitive displacement experiments confirmed that phenothrin inserted into the subdomain IIA (site I) of HSA. Several computational approaches such as molecular docking, frontier molecular orbital analysis, and electrostatic potential analysis were utilized to probe into the binding mode of the phenothrin-HSA complex. The binding behaviors of the chiral phenothrin mixture differed during the complexation. In conclusion, both the experimental and theoretical investigations provide useful information for better understanding and reducing the potential deleterious effects of the chiral phenothrin mixture on human long-term physio-pathological status.

Abstract
We report the controlled growth of biologically active compounds: gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in various shapes, including their green synthesis, characterization, and studies of their applications towards biological, degradation and recycling. Using spectroscopic methods, studies on responsive binding mechanisms of AuNPs with biopolymers herring sperm deoxyribonucleic acid (hsDNA), bovine serum albumin (BSA), dyes degradation study, and exquisitely gold separation studies/recovery from nanowaste, COVID-19 testing kits, and pregnancy testing kits are discussed. The sensing ability of the AuNPs with biopolymers was investigated via various analytical techniques. The rate of degradation of various dyes in the presence and absence of AuNPs was studied by deploying stirring, IR, solar, and UV-Vis methods. AuNPs were found to be the most active cytotoxic agent against human breast cancer cell lines such as MCF-7 and MDAMB-468. Furthermore, an economical process for the recovery of gold traces from nanowaste, COVID-19 detection kits, and pregnancy testing kits was developed using inexpensive and eco-friendly α-cyclodextrin sugar. This method was found to be easy and safest in comparison with the universally accepted cyanidation process. In the future, small gold jewelry makers and related industries would benefit from the proposed gold-recycling process and it might contribute to their socio-economic growth. The methodologies proposed are also beneficial for trace-level forensic investigation.

Abstract
Urease in soil interacts with humic acid (HA), which results in a change of the enzymatic activity and stability. However, knowledge on the conformational change of urease in the presence of HA is still lacking. Therefore, the structure of urease (net zero charge at pH 5.2) interacting with HA and the microenvironments of the tyrosine (Tyr) and tryptophane (Trp) residues were investigated at pH 6.7 and 8.0 and 0.5 and 50 mmol L-1 KCl using spectroscopic techniques. Fluorescence intensity of urease was progressively inhibited by HA with increasing mass ratio f of HA/urease. Moreover, quenching of urease fluorescence by HA was strongest at pH 6.7 (and 50 mmol L-1 KCl) where the hydrophobic attraction was counteracted by only a weak electrostatic repulsion. HA exerted only a minor effect on the positions of the maximum excitation bands for Tyr and Trp residues, indicating insignificant changes in the microenvironment of these residues in the presence of HA. At pH 6.7, the amide I and amide II bands were inhibited by HA. Curve-fitting of the amide I band of urease in complexes indicated that the percentages of α-helix, β-sheet and β-turn were changed. At pH 8 HA had little effect on the circular dichroism and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectra of urease. At this pH the interaction between urease and HA was weak due to the relatively strong electrostatic repulsion and the conformational change was insignificant. The present results increase our understanding of negatively charged protein behavior in natural environments dominated by humic substances.

Abstract
The global burden of liver damage and renal failure necessitates technology-aided evolution towards point-of-care (POC) testing of metabolic markers. Hence in the prevalence of current health conditions, achieving on-site detection and quantifying serum albumin (SA) can contribute significantly to halting the increased mortality and morbidity rate. Herein, we have rationally designed and synthesized far-red emitting, solvatofluorochromic styryl chromone (SC) derivatives SC1 and SC2, and SC2-conjugated fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles (SCNPs) for sensing SA with a fluorogenic response via interacting at an atypical drug binding site. In solution, the highly sensitive and selective fluorogenic response was evaluated by the prominent amplification and blue-shift in the emission maxima of the probes from deep red to dark yellow through an intermediate orange emission. The transformation of the fluorogen into a fluorophore was manifested through spectroscopic measurements. The stabilization of the probes at protein pockets was ascribed to the non-covalent interactions, such as H-bonding, cation-π, and hydrophobic interactions, as unveiled by docking studies. The practical applications revealed the novelty of SC derivatives through (a) the capability to detect SA isolated from real blood samples via a turn-on fluorescence response; (b) the design of a simple, cheap, and portable test-strip using a glass-slide loaded with solid-state emissive SC2, which provided differential emission color of the SC2-HSA complex in solution and the solid-state with increasing concentration of HSA. Moreover, a smartphone-based color analysis application was employed to obtain the ratio of green and red (G/R) channels, which was utilized for quantitative detection of HSA; (c) the biocompatibility of the SC1 was ascertained through confocal laser scanning microscopic imaging (CLSM). Detailed investigation showed that SC1 could entirely localize in the mitochondria and evolve as a promising biomarker for distinguishing cancer cells from normal cells. Additionally, the validation of uncommon binding of SC1 and SC2 between domains I and III was determined using competition experiments with a known site-specific binder and molecular docking studies. This unique property of the probes can be further exploited to understand the cellular intake of HSA-drug complexes in the multifaceted biological system. These results find the utility of SC derivatives as small molecule-based chemosensors for at-home SA detection and as a biomarker for cancer.

The interaction of four arene ruthenium complexes [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(Me2dppz)Cl]PF6 (1) with Me2dppz = 11,12-dimethyldipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine, [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(aip)Cl]PF6 (2) with aip = 2-(9-anthryl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10] phenanthroline), ([(ƞ6-toluene)Ru(ppf)Cl]PF6) (3) and ([(ƞ6-p-cymene)Ru(ppf)Cl]PF6) (4) with ppf = pyrido[2',3':5,6] pyrazino[2,3-f][1,10]phenanthroline with calf thymus DNA were investigated. All of four complexes exhibit DNA-binding activity. UV-Vis spectroscopic studies revealed the intrinsic binding constants of the order 104 M-1 of magnitude, indicating non-intercalative mode. Fluorescence quenching analysis showed that all complexes interfere with intercalator ethidium bromide and minor groove binder Hoechst 33258 by a singular non-intercalative mode with extent that differs by two orders of magnitude. Gel electrophoresis results on DNA cleavage assay demonstrated that all complexes produced conformational changes of supercoiled circular plasmid pUC19 in concentration dependent way. The results of fluorescence titration bovine serum albumin by 1, 2, 3 and 4 showed that all complexes significantly quench tryptophan residues fluorescence through a static quenching mechanism. The antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria analyzed. Complex 1 was most active, even on Escherichia coli was more active than positive control compound.

Abstract
In this work, herein we report the synthesis, structural characterization and in vitro cytotoxic evaluation of two mixed Co(II)/Ni(II)-nalidixic acid-bipyridyl complexes (1 and 2). The structural analysis of metal complexes 1 and 2 was carried out by analytical and multispectroscopic techniques (FT-IR, UV-vis, EPR, sXRD). The crystallographic details of complexes 1 and 2 revealed a monoclinic crystal system with P21/c space group. DFT studies of complexes were performed to get electronic structure and localization of HOMO and LUMO electron densities. Hirshfeld surface analysis of metal complexes 1 and 2 was employed to understand the various intermolecular interactions (C-H···O, N-H···H and O-H···O) that define the stability of crystal lattice structures. The comparative interaction studies of complex 1 and complex 2 with DNA/BSA were performed by diverse multispectroscopic and analytical techniques to evaluate their chemotherapeutic potential. The magnitude of the DNA binding propensity and binding mode was verified by calculating Kb, K and Ksv values. Higher binding affinity was observed in case of complex 2via intercalative mode. Furthermore, the cytotoxic assessment of complexes 1 and 2 was examined against MDA-MB-231 (triple negative human breast cancer cell line) and HepG2 (liver carcinoma cell line) employing MTT assay which revealed remarkably effecient and specific cytotoxic activity of complex 2.

Abstract
The successful evolution of an effective drug depends on its pharmacokinetics, efficiency and safety and these in turn depend on the drug-target/drug-carrier protein binding. This work, deals with the interaction of a pyridine derivative, 2-hydroxy-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-phenylpyridine 3-carbonitrile (HDN) with serum albumins at physiological conditions utilizing the steady state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques by probing the emission behavior of Trp in BSA and HSA. In-silico studies revealed a combined static and dynamic quenching mechanism for the interactions. The binding studies suggests a spontaneous binding between HDN and the albumins with a moderate binding affinity (Kb ∼ 10-5 M-1) with a single class of binding site. The FRET mediated emission from HDN indicates preferential binding of HDN in subdomain IIA of the albumins with Trp residue in close proximity. Circular dichroism results indicate HDN induced conformational changes for BSA and HSA, but the α-helical secondary structure was well preserved even up to a concentration of 10 µM HDN. Moderate binding affinity of HDN with BSA and HSA and the unaltered secondary structure of proteins on binding propose the potential application of HDN as an efficient drug. The application of docking method on the affinity of HDN towards the proposed target/receptor is discussed.

Abstract
The fate of antibiotics in activated sludge has attracted increasing interests. However, the focus needs to shift from concerning removal efficiencies to understanding mechanisms and sludge responding to antibiotic toxicity. Herein, we operated two anaerobic sequencing batch reactors (ASBRs) for 200 days with sulfadiazine (SDZ) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) added. The removal efficiency of SMX was higher than that of SDZ. SDZ was removed via adsorption (9.91-21.18%) and biodegradation (10.20-16.00%), while biodegradation (65.44-86.26%) was dominant for SMX removal. The mechanisms involved in adsorption and biodegradation were investigated, including adsorption strength, adsorption sites and the roles of enzymes. Protein-like substance (tryptophan) functioned vitally in adsorption by forming complexes with sulfonamides. P450 enzymes may catalyze sulfonamides degradation via hydroxylation and desulfurization. Activated sludge showed distinct responses to different sulfonamides, reflected in the changes of microbial communities and functions. These responses were related to sulfonamides removal, corresponding to the stronger adsorption capacity of activated sludge in ASBR-SDZ and degradation capacity in ASBR-SMX. Furthermore, the reasons for different removal efficiencies of sulfonamides were analyzed according to steric and electronic effects. These findings propose insights into antibiotic removal and broaden the knowledge for self-protection mechanisms of activated sludge under chronic toxicities of antibiotics.

Abstract
Treatment with transition metal complexes is an efficient method to fight with cancer. Therefore, a new transition metal complex formulated as [Pd(1, 3-pn)(acac)]Cl (pn and acac stand for propylendiamine and acetylacetonate, respectively) was synthesized and analyzed using 1H NMR, Fourier transform infrared, electronic absorption spectroscopy techniques as well as elemental analysis and conductivity measurement. The geometry optimization, frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis and nonlinear optical (NLO) property were accomplished by density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP level with 6-311G(d,p)/aug-cc-pVTZ-PP basis set. Preliminary determination of antitumor activity and lipophilicity of this metal complex was performed experimentally and the promising results were obtained. This encouraged us to study the interaction and binding mode/modes of this complex with DNA as the primary receptor for the chemotropic drugs and BSA as the transporter protein in the circulatory system. For this reason, the binding of newly made complex was assessed in-vitro under physiological state using experimental and in-silico molecular modeling studies. So, the CT-DNA binding study of this complex was explored using spectrofluorometric as well as spectrophotometric techniques, viscosity and gel electrophoresis experiments. Furthermore, fluorescence, UV-Vis, F[Formula: see text]rster resonance energy transfer and circular dichroism studies were carried out for BSA binding. The experimental and computational interaction studies showed that [Pd(1, 3-pn)(acac)]Cl complex binds to the minor groove of CT-DNA and interacts with BSA by van der Waals forces and hydrogen bond.

Abstract
Pain and inflammation are unpleasant experiences that usually occur as a result of tissue damage. Despite the number of existing analgesic drugs, side effects limit their use, stimulating the search for new therapeutic agents. In this sense, five hydrazone derivatives (H1, H2, H3, H4, and H5), with general structure R1R2C = NNR3R4, were synthesized with molecular modification strategies. In this paper, we describe the ability of hydrazone derivatives to attenuate nociceptive behavior and the inflammatory response in mice. Antinociceptive activity was evaluated through acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin-induced nociception tests. In both experimental models, the hydrazone with the greatest potency (H5) significantly (p < 0.05) reduced nociceptive behavior. Additionally, methods of acute and chronic inflammation induced by different chemicals (carrageenan and histamine) were performed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of H5. Moreover, molecular docking analysis revealed that H5 can block the COX-2 enzyme, reducing arachidonic acid metabolism and consequently decreasing the production of prostaglandins, which are important inflammatory mediators. H5 also changes locomotor activity. In summary, H5 exhibited relevant antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory potential and acted on several targets, making it a candidate for a new multi-target oral anti-inflammatory drug.

Abstract
Here, to elucidate the interaction mechanism and physicochemical properties of remimazolam and human serum albumin interactions, techniques such as fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, and isothermal titration calorimetry have been applied for study. The thermodynamic parameters at body temperature (ΔS = -207 J·mol-1 ·K-1 , ΔS = -9.76 × 104 J·mol-1 and ΔG = -3.34 × 104 J·mol-1 ; 310 K) manifests one strong binding site on the protein, which was modulated by van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds. What is more, the results of CD, synchronous and three-dimensional fluorescence showed that remimazolam altered the microenvironment of the protein amino acid residues. A distance of 2.1 nm between the remimazolam and Trp shows the potential for resonance energy transfer. Furthermore, these results potentially provide information for illustrating the pharmacodynamics and toxicodynamics of remimazolam when it is applied clinically.

Abstract
The endocrine disrupting compound Bisphenol and its analogues are widely used in food packaging products and can cause serious health hazards. The protein, Lysozyme (Lyz), showing anti-microbial properties, is used as a "natural" food and dairy preservative. Herein, we explored the interaction between Lyz and Bisphenol S (BPS) by multi-spectroscopic and theoretical approaches. Lyz interacts with BPS through static quenching, where hydrophobic force governed the underlying interaction. Molecular docking results reveal that tryptophan plays a vital role in binding, corroborated well with near UV-CD studies. A decrease in the radius of gyration (from 1.43 nm to 1.35 nm) of Lyz substantiates the compactness of the protein conformation owing to such an interaction. This structural alteration experienced by Lyz may alter its functional properties as a food preservative. Consequently, this can degrade the quality of the food products and thereby lead to severe health issues.

Abstract
To date, the determination of sulfonamide metabolites in animal-derived food has universal disadvantages of low throughput and no integrated metabolites involved. In this study, a powerful and reliable strategy for high-throughput screening of sulfonamide metabolites in goat meat was proposed based on an aqueous two-phase separation procedure (ATPS) combined with ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap). Noncovalent interactions including van der Waals force, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic effect were determined to be staple interactions between the sulfonamide metabolites and sheep serum albumin by fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular docking technology, and an 80% acetonitrile-water solution/(NH4)2SO4 was used as ATPS in order to release combined sulfonamide metabolites and minimize the influence of sheep serum albumin. Sulfonamide metabolites in the matrix were screened based on a mechanism of mass natural loss and core structure followed by identification combined with the pharmacokinetic. The developed strategy was validated according to EU standard 2002/657/EC with CCα ranging from 0.07 to 0.98 μg kg-1, accuracy recovery with 84-107%, and RSDs lower than 8.9%. Eighty seven goat meat samples were used for determination of 26 sulfonamides and 8 potential metabolites. On the basis of the established innovative process, this study has successfully implemented the comprehensive detection of sulfonamide metabolites, including N4-acetylated substitution, N4-hydroxylation, 4-nitroso, azo dimers, oxidized nitro, N4 monoglucose conjugation, β-d-glucuronide, and N-4-aminobenzenesulfonyl metabolites, which were shown to undergo oxidation, hydrogenation, sulfation, glucuronidation, glucosylation, and O-aminomethylation.

Abstract
Thrombin is a key therapeutic target protein of thrombosis. To date, massive studies have focused on the exploration of antithrombotic compounds. Here we capitalize on molecular docking, molecular simulations and spectroscopic experiments for virtually screening natural products that can inhibit thrombin and elucidating their interaction mechanism. Six compounds are screened from a natural product database by a cross-analysis based on two semi-flexible molecular docking methods. We show that four compounds can effectively inhibit thrombin and Calceolarioside B is the most competitive one based on enzyme inhibition experiments. Moreover, the binding free energies of these compounds with thrombin exhibit a consistent rank trend with their enzyme inhibition assay results. In addition, the Van der Waals is the main force to drive the interaction between the ligands and the receptor, which can be deduced from the fluorescence spectral results. This work provides a new insight into the development of antithrombotic natural compounds.

Abstract
A novel water soluble ternary copper(II) complex,-[Cu2(phen)2(3-IAA)2(H2O)](ClO4)2·H2O-(phen: 1,10-phenanthroline, 3-IAA: 3-indoleacetic acid), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental CHN analysis, ESI-TOF, FTIR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Interaction of the complex with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) has been investigated by absorption spectral titration, ethidium bromide (EB) and Hoechst 33258 displacement assay. The interactions between the complex and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were investigated by electronic absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy methods. The experimental results indicate that the fluorescence quenching mechanism between the complex and BSA is a static quenching process. The Stern-Volmer constants, binding constants, binding sites and the corresponding thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH, ΔS) of BSA + complex systems were determined at different temperatures. The binding distance between the complex and BSA was calculated according to Förster non-radiation energy transfer theory (FRET). The effect of the complex on the conformation of BSA was also examined using synchronous, two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) fluorescence spectroscopy. Furthermore, the oxygen radical scavenging activity of the complex was determined in terms of IC50, using the DPPH and H2O2 method, to show that it particularly enables electron loss from radical species. This study highlights the importance of indole and moieties in the development of antioxidant agents. A potent drug candidate novel water soluble ternary copper(II) complex,-[Cu2(phen)2(3-IAA)2(H2O)] (ClO4)2·H2O-(phen: 1,10-phenanthroline, 3-IAA: 3-indoleacetic acid), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental CHN analysis, FTIR, ESI-MS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The complex has been tested for in vitro biomacromolecular interactions by spectroscopic methods. Furthermore, radical scavenging activities of the complex were also investigated.

Abstract
Herein we report the binding interactions between lysozyme (Lyz) and an anthracycline drug, epirubicin hydrochloride (EPR), through an extensive spectroscopic approach at both ensemble average and single molecular resolution. Our steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy reveals that the drug-induced fluorescence quenching of the protein proceeds through a static quenching mechanism. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and steady-state experiments reveal almost similar thermodynamic signatures of the drug-protein interactions. The underlying force that plays pivotal roles in the said interaction is hydrophobic in nature, which is enhanced in the presence of a strong electrolyte (NaCl). Circular dichroism (CD) spectra indicate that there is a marginal increase in the secondary structure of the native protein (α-helical content increases from 26.9 to 31.4% in the presence of 100 μM EPR) upon binding with the drug. Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) was used to monitor the changes in structure and conformational dynamics of Lyz upon interaction with EPR. The individual association (Kass = 0.33 × 106 ms-1 M-1) and dissociation (Kdiss = 1.79 ms-1) rate constants and the binding constant (Kb = 1.84 × 105 M-1) values, obtained from fluctuations of fluorescence intensity of the EPR-bound protein, have also been estimated. AutoDock results demonstrate that the drug molecule is encapsulated within the hydrophobic pocket of the protein (in close proximity to both Trp62 and Trp108) and resides ∼20 Å apart from the covalently labelled CPM dye. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) studies proved that the distance between the donor (CPM) and the acceptor (EPR) is ∼22 Å, which is very similar to that obtained from molecular docking analysis (∼20 Å). The system also shows temperature-dependent reversible FRET, which may be used as a thermal sensor for the temperature-sensitive biological systems.

Abstract
Monoisoamyl 2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (MiADMSA), a lipophilic chelator has been evaluated for its potential use as an antidote in arsenic poisoning. The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics properties of a drug could be understood via study its mechanism of interaction with bovine serum albumin protein (BSA). Therefore, the interaction between MiADMSA with BSA was investigated using various spectroscopic techniques and computational methods. Linear quenching of BSA intrinsic fluorescence intensity with the increasing concentration of MiADMSA was observed in the fluorescence study. Furthermore, synchronous results revealed that MiADMSA slightly changed the conformation of BSA. The binding constant value of the BSA-MiADMSA complex was found 1.60 × 104 M-1 at 298 K. The value of thermodynamic parameters ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS described that the process is spontaneous, endothermic, and hydrophobic forces are involved in the interaction of MiADMSA with BSA. Competitive site marker experiments showed that MiADMSA binds to site-II of BSA. Conformational changes of BSA with the interaction of MiADMSA were apparent by CD, UV-Visible, FT-IR, and 3D fluorescence spectroscopy. To strengthen the experimental findings we have also performed a theoretical study on the BSA-MiADMSA complex. Two sites were identified with docking score of - 6.642 kcal/mol at site IIa and - 3.80 kcal/mol for site IIb via molecular docking study. Molecular dynamics simulation study inferred the stability of the BSA-MiADMSA complex which was analyzed in a long simulation run. The experimental and computational studies have shown the effective binding of MiADMSA with BSA which is essential for the transportation and elimination of a drug from the body.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) were found to modulate the fibrillation of Bovine Β-Lactoglobulin (BLG). OBJECTIVE To gain an insight regarding the mechanism of BLG aggregation modulation by AgNPs at molecular level, studies on the interactions between BLG and AgNPs were carried out. METHODS Protein-ligand interactions were studied based on Trp fluorescence quenching (at four different temperatures), synchronous and three-dimensional fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopy (far-UV and near-UV). RESULTS Protein-nanoparticles association constant was in the range of 106 -1010 M-1 and the quenching constant was determined as ~107 M-1. Ground state complexation between the protein and nanoparticles was predicted. Change in polarity surrounding the Trp residue was not detected by synchronous and three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy. AgNPs caused a global change in the secondary and tertiary structure of the protein as revealed from far-UV and near-UV CD spectroscopy. Enthalpy driven complexation between the protein and nanoparticles indicates the involvement of hydrogen bonding and/or van der Waals interactions. CONCLUSION Modulation of BLG aggregation by AgNPs is due to strong binding of the nanoparticles with BLG, which also causes structural perturbations of the protein.

Abstract
3,5-Dimethoxy-4-hydroxycinnamic acid commonly known as Sinapic acid is a well-known derivative of hydroxycinnamic acids, is commonly present in human diet. Due to its wide variety of pharmacological activities like antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and anti-anxiety, it has attracted much attention for the researchers. In our previous published work we have already analyzed the interaction between sinapic acid (SA) with a model transport protein. In this work our aim is to demonstrate a detailed investigation of the binding interaction between sinapic acid with another carrier of genetic information in a living cell, the DNA. Here we have used calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) as a model. The binding characteristic of SA with ct-DNA was investigated by different spectroscopic and theoretical tools. The spectroscopic investigation revealed that quenching of intrinsic fluorescence of SA by ct-DNA occurs through dynamic quenching mechanism. The thermodynamic parameters established the involvement of hydrogen bonding and weak van der Waals forces in the interaction. Further, the circular dichroism, competitive binding experiment with ethidium bromide and potassium iodide quenching experiment suggested that SA possibly binds to the groove position of the ct-DNA. Finally, molecular docking analysis established the SA binds to minor groove position of ct-DNA in G-C rich region through hydrogen bonding interaction. Additionally, gel electrophoresis analysis has been performed to determine the protective efficacy of SA against UVB induced DNA damage and 50 μM of SA was found to protect the DNA from UVB induced damage. We hope that our study could provide the validation of SA on behalf of therapeutics and development of next generation therapeutic drug as well as designing new efficient drug molecule and methodology for the interaction study of the drug with DNA.

Abstract
As a top-selling neonicotinoid insecticide widely used in the field, thiamethoxam is an environmental pollutant because of the accumulation in ecosystem and has also been reported that it has potential risks to the health of mammals even humans. In order to understand the binding mechanism of thiamethoxam with biological receptors, spectroscopic techniques and theoretical simulations was used to explore the specific interactions between thiamethoxam and proteins. Interestingly, the results indicated that hydrophobic interaction as the main driving force, thiamethoxam formed a single binding site complex with proteins spontaneously, resulting in a decrease in the esterase-like activity of human serum albumin. The results of computer simulation showed that there were hydrophobic, electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions between thiamethoxam and receptors. The results of experiment and computer simulation were mutually confirmed, so a model was established for the interaction between the two which uncovered the structural characteristics of the binding site. This research provided new insights for the structure optimization of thiamethoxam, as well as gave an effective reference for evaluating the risk of thiamethoxam systemically in the future.

Abstract
The residues of tetracycline in environment have raised increasing concern for the deleterious impact on ecological and human health. Natural organic matter (NOM), ubiquitous in natural waters, is unavoidable to encounter tetracycline, which might affect the fate of tetracycline in aquatic environment. In this study, we investigated the effect of natural organic matter (NOM) on the photolytic fate of tetracycline (TC). The photolysis kinetics of TC were evaluated with two representative NOM, tannic acid (TA) and gallic acid (GA). The presence of TA and GA obviously inhibited the removal of TC under UV irradiation with photolysis rate constant at 0.067 h-1 and 0.071 h-1, respectively, which were 32.3% and 28.3% less than that without TA and GA (0.099 h-1). Furthermore, NOM exhibited different impacts on both indirect photolysis and direct photolysis. NOM promoted the formation of hydroxyl radical, induced the generation of triplet-excited state NOM and thus greatly enhanced the indirect photolysis of TC. However, direct photolysis was almost completely inhibited by NOM via inner filter effect and interacting with TC to form ground-state complex with low photoreactive. Moreover, similar intermediates were detected in the presence and absence of NOM, indicating that NOM exhibited limited influence on the degradation pathways of TC. This study reveals the multiple roles of NOM on tetracycline photolysis, contributing to better understand the photolytic fate of antibiotics in natural waters.

Abstract
Studies have reported that procyanidins can interact with proteins, thereby affecting their structure, function, and bioaccessibility. In this paper, we investigated the interaction between grape seeds procyanidins (GSP) and animal source protein (from pig, chicken and fish), and the effects on the protein structure, antioxidant capacity and bioaccessibility of GSP. Fluorescence results showed that the binding constant of GSP-protein complex was 10-104 M-1, and the main forces were van der Waals force, hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. The antioxidant capacity of GSP was masked by GSP-protein complexes formed. The circular dichroism indicated that GSP had an effect on the content of α-helix and β-sheet in the secondary structure of pork and chicken proteins, but had little effect on the secondary structure of fish protein. The results showed that the protein can bind to GSP and affect its antioxidant activity and bioaccessibility. This study can provide reference for further study on the digestion and absorption of the complexes and offer health guidance in the preparation of diets.
