Abstract
Understanding the intermolecular interactions between antibiotic drugs and hemoglobin is crucial in biological systems. The current study aimed to investigate the preparation of chitosan/polysorbate-80/tripolyphosphate (CS-PS/TPP) nanocomposite as a potential drug carrier for Ciprofloxacin-HCl drug (CFX), intended for controlled release formulation and further used to interact with bovine hemoglobin. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis-differential thermal analysis (TGA-DTA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and X-ray diffraction analyses were used to characterize the CS-PS/TPP nanocomposite and its CFX-loaded nanocomposite. The second series of biophysical properties were performed on the Ciprofloxacin-loaded CS-PS/TPP (NCFX) for interaction with bovine hemoglobin (BHb). The interactions of (CFX and NCFX) with redox protein hemoglobin were investigated for the first time through a series of in vitro experimental techniques to provide comprehensive knowledge of the drug-protein binding interactions. Additionally, the effect of inclusion of PS-80 on the CFX-BHb interaction was also studied at different concentrations using fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, and circular dichroism (CD) under physiological conditions. The binding process of CFX and NCFX was spontaneous, and the fluorescence of BHb was quenched due to the static mechanism formation of the (CFX/BHb) and (NCFX/BHb) complexes. Thermodynamic parameters ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS at various temperatures indicate that the hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces play a major role in the CFX-BHb association.

Abstract
Inspired by the hierarchical chiral assembly of porphyrin-proteins in photosynthetic systems, the hierarchical self-assembly of porphyrin-amino acids/peptides provides a novel strategy for constructing functional materials. How to artificially simulate the assembly of porphyrins, proteins, and other cofactors in the photosynthesis system to obtain persistent strong light capture, charge separation and catalytic reactions has become an important concern in the construction of biomimetic photosynthesis systems. This paper summarizes the different assembly strategies adopted in recent years, the effects of driving forces on self-assembly, and the application of porphyrin-peptides in catalysis and biomedicine, and briefly discusses the challenges and prospects for future research.

Abstract
With potential applications in materials and especially in light-responsive biomedicine that targets cancer tissue selectively, much research has focused on developing covalent conjugation techniques to tether porphyrinoid units to various biomacromolecules. This review details the key synthetic approaches that have been employed in the recent decades to conjugate porphyrinoids with oligonucleotides and peptides/proteins. In addition, we provide succinct discussions on the subsequent applications of such hybrid systems and also give a brief overview of the rapidly progressing field of porphyrin-antibody conjugates. Since nucleic acid and peptide systems vary in structure, connectivity, functional group availability and placement, as well as stability and solubility, tailored synthetic approaches are needed for conjugating to each of these biomacromolecule types. In terms of tethering to ONs, porphyrins are typically attached by employing bioorthogonal chemistry (e.g., using phosphoramidites) that drive solid-phase ON synthesis or by conducting post-synthesis modifications and subsequent reactions (such as amide couplings, hydrazide-carbonyl reactions, and click chemistry). In contrast, peptides and proteins are typically conjugated to porphyrinoids using their native functional groups, especially the thiol and amine side chains. However, bioorthogonal reactions (e.g., Staudinger ligations, and copper or strain promoted alkyne-azide cycloadditions) that utilize de novo introduced functional groups onto peptides/proteins have seen vigorous development, especially for site-specific peptide-porphyrin tethering. While the ON-porphyrin conjugates have largely been explored for programmed nanostructure self-assembly and artificial light-harvesting applications, there are some reports of ON-porphyrin systems targeting clinically translational applications (e.g., antimicrobial biomaterials and site-specific nucleic acid cleavage). Conjugates of porphyrins with proteinaceous moieties, on the other hand, have been predominantly used for therapeutic and diagnostic applications (especially in photodynamic therapy, photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy, and photothermal therapy). The advancement of the field of porphyrinoid-bioconjugation chemistry from basic academic research to more clinically targeted applications require continuous fine-tuning in terms of synthetic strategies and hence there will continue to be much exciting work on porphyrinoid-biomacromolecule conjugation.

Abstract
The percentage of failures in late pharmaceutical development due to toxicity has increased dramatically over the last decade or so, resulting in increased demand for new methods to rapidly and reliably predict the toxicity of compounds. Today, computational toxicology can be used in every phase of drug discovery and development, from profiling large libraries early on, to predicting off-target effects in the mid-discovery phase, and to assess potential mutagenic impurities in development and degradants as part of life-cycle management. In this study, for the first time, in silico approaches were used to analyze the possible dark toxicity of photosensitive systems based on chlorin e6 and assessed possible toxicity of these compositions. By applying quantitative structure-activity relationship models (QSARs) and modeling adverse outcome pathways (AOPs), a potential toxic effect of water-soluble (chlorin e6 and chlorin e6 aminoamid) and hydrophobic (tetraphenylporphyrin) photosensitizers (PS) was predicted. Particularly, PSs’ protein binding ability, reactivity to form peptide adducts, glutathione conjugation, activity in dendritic cells, and gene expression activity in keratinocytes were explored. Using a metabolism simulator, possible PS metabolites were predicted and their potential toxicity was assessed as well. It was shown that all tested porphyrin PS and their predicted metabolites possess low activity in the mentioned processes and therefore are unable to cause significant adverse toxic effects under dark conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Photodynamic therapy with a bactericidal action is called antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT),which is a method of staining an object with a photosensitizing dye and then sterilizing by irradiating the dye at it's excitation wavelength. In this study, we aimed to investigate a caries pathogenic bactericidal method in a site difficult to mechanically remove, by examining aPDT effect on Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans), which is a typical caries pathogenic bacteria by applying the plaque disclosing solution as photosensitizing dye. METHODS The absorption wavelength spectrum of irradiating plaque staining agent phloxine B (PB) was analyzed using UV-vis. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by photo excitation with blue LED irradiation was measured by electron spin resonance technique. S. mutans was cultured according to a conventional method and the effect of aPDT after PB staining was evaluated by a Colony Forming Unit (CFU). In addition, protein carbonyl (PC), an oxidative stress marker, was also measured by western blotting. RESULTS Singlet oxygen was generated by PB with blue light. As a result of aPDT treatment on S. mutans under this condition, it was recognized that CFU was suppressed dependent on irradiation intensity of blue light. In addition, the expression of PC was enhanced by aPDT. CONCLUSIONS aPDT is demonstrated by staining S. mutans with PB and irradiating blue light used for resin polymerization and tooth bleaching to generate ROS. Therefore, plaque-disclosing solution-based aPDT against S. mutans might represent a new method for cleaning pit and fissure grooves.

Abstract
Membrane proteins (MPs) constitute a third of all proteomes, and contribute to a myriad of cellular functions including intercellular communication, nutrient transport and energy generation. For example, TonB-dependent transporters (TBDTs) in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria play an essential role transporting iron and other nutrients into the bacterial cell. The inherently hydrophobic surfaces of MPs complicates protein expression, purification, and characterization. Thus, dissecting the functional contributions of individual amino acids or structural features through mutagenesis can be a challenging ordeal. Here, we apply a new approach for the expedited protein characterization of the TBDT ShuA from Shigella dysenteriae, and elucidate the protein's initial steps during heme-uptake. ShuA variants were displayed on the surface of an M13 bacteriophage as fusions to the P8 coat protein. Each ShuA variant was analyzed for its ability to display on the bacteriophage surface, and functionally bind to hemoglobin. This technique streamlines isolation of stable MP variants for rapid characterization of binding to various ligands. Site-directed mutagenesis studies targeting each extracellular loop region of ShuA demonstrate no specific extracellular loop is required for hemoglobin binding. Instead two residues, His420 and His86 mediate this interaction. The results identify a loop susceptible to antibody binding, and also a small molecule motif capable of disrupting ShuA from S. dysenteriae. The approach is generalizable to the dissection of other phage-displayed TBDTs and MPs.

Abstract
Hemoproteins may present several functions due to their prosthetic groups. After a long time, well-studied proteins such as myoglobin have surprised us with new functions. Myoglobin is a hemoprotein which has some well described and unexpected functions within the organism. Oxidase activity in standard myoglobins has been described and this activity was attributed to a covalent linkage between heme and some amino acid residues such as histidine, when myoglobins are treated with alkyl halides, and tyrosine, and when myoglobins are treated with H(2)O(2). We have found that the oxidase activity, due to H(2)O(2) treatment, can appear in different myoglobins, which presents no key residue, such as Tyr 103, for the oxidase activity previously described in the literature.

Abstract
Trifluoperazine (TFZ), a phenothiazine drug, penetrates into human erythrocytes and releases oxygen by interaction with hemoglobin. TFZ-induced oxygen release from hyperglycemic erythrocytes isolated from diabetic patients is considerably less compared to that from the cells of normoglycemic individuals. In diabetes mellitus, hemoglobin is significantly glycated by glucose. Non-glycated hemoglobin, HbA0 and its major glycated analog, HbA1c have been separated from the blood samples of diabetic patients. TFZ releases considerable amount of oxygen from HbA0, but very little from HbA1c. Spectrofluorimetric studies reveal that TFZ forms excited state complexes with both HbA0 and HbAlc. Titration of HbA0 with TFZ in a spectrophotometric study exhibits two isosbestic points. Similar experiment with HbAlc causes gradual loss of the Soret peak without appearance of any isosbestic point indicating a possibility of heme loss during interaction, which is also supported by gel filtration experiment and SDS-PAGE experiment followed by heme staining. The results suggest that drug action on hemoglobin is influenced by glycation-induced structural modification of the protein.

Abstract
We have previously identified and characterized a heme/hemoglobin receptor, HmuR, in Porphyromonas gingivalis. To analyze the conserved amino acid residues of HmuR that may be involved in hemin/hemoprotein binding and utilization, we constructed a series of P. gingivalis A7436 hmuR mutants with amino acid replacements and characterized the ability of these mutants to utilize hemin and hemoproteins. Site-directed mutagenesis was employed to introduce mutations H95A, H434A, H95A-H434A, YRAP420-423YAAA, and NPDL442-445NAAA into HmuR in both P. gingivalis and Escherichia coli. Point mutations at H95 and H434 and in the NPDL motif of HmuR resulted in decreased binding to hemin, hemoglobin, and human serum albumin-hemin complex. Notably, mutations of these conserved sites and motifs led to reduced growth of P. gingivalis when human serum was used as the heme source. Analysis using a three-dimensional homology model of HmuR indicated that H95, H434, and the NPDL motif are present on apical or extracellular loops of HmuR, while the YRAP motif is present on the barrel wall. Taken together, these results support a role for H95, H434, and the NPDL motif of the P. gingivalis HmuR protein in heme binding and utilization of serum hemoproteins and the HmuR YRAP motif in serum hemoprotein utilization.

Abstract
Spectrofluorimetric and spectrophotometric studies were done to understand the binding of hematoporphyrin, a photosensitizer to horseradish peroxidase (EC1.11.1.7). The binding affinity constant (K) decreases as the state of aggregation of the porphyrin increases, while the number of binding sites (approximately 1) remains unchanged. The interaction appears to be mostly hydrophobic, entropy-driven and endothermic process. Hematoporphyrin potentiates horseradish peroxidase-catalyzed H2O2-mediated NADH oxidation, probably by porphyrin-influenced removal of superoxide radicals, which are generated in the system. Conformational change of the protein due to its interaction with porphyrin may be associated with potentiation of the catalytic activity of the enzyme.

Abstract
Protoporphyrin IX and its derivatives are used as photosensitizers in the photodynamic therapy of cancer. Protoporphyrin IX penetrates into human red blood cells and releases oxygen from them. This leads to a change in the morphology of the cells. Spectrophotometric studies reveal that protoporphyrin IX interacts with haemoglobin and myoglobin forming ground state complexes. For both proteins, the binding affinity constant decreases, while the possible number of binding sites increases, as the aggregation state of the porphyrin is increased. The interactions lead to conformational changes of both haemoglobin and myoglobin as observed in circular dichroism studies. Upon binding with the proteins, protoporphyrin IX releases the heme-bound oxygen from the oxyproteins, which is dependent on the stoichiometric ratios of the porphyrin : protein. The peroxidase activities of haemoglobin and myoglobin are potentiated by the protein-porphyrin complexation. Possible mechanisms underlying the relation between the porphyrin-induced structural modifications of the heme proteins and alterations in their functional properties have been discussed. The findings may have a role in establishing efficacy of therapeutic uses of porphyrins as well as in elucidating their mechanisms of action as therapeutic agents.
