SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 322:124818. [PMID: 39029202 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2024.124818] [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: 04/25/2024] [Revised: 07/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024]
Abstract
The interaction between Nitisinone (NTBC) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) as the transport protein in a circulating system was investigated for the first time utilizing various analytical (UV-Vis spectrophotometry, fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and differential scanning calorimetry) and computational (molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations) methods. The BSA fluorescence intensity was quenched upon interaction with NTBC, and the quenching mechanism was observed as static. The interaction between NTBC and BSA was examined at 288 K, 298 K, and 308 K where the binding constants were found to be 1.44 × 105 ± 0.22 M-1, 5.18 × 104 ± 0.20 M-1, and 3.02 × 104 ± 0.22 M-1 respectively, suggesting an intermediate binding affinity between NTBC and BSA. Changes in the microenvironment surrounding tryptophan and tyrosine residues of BSA were elucidated using 3-D fluorescence spectroscopy. Thermodynamic studies revealed the calculated values of ΔH = - 54.34 ± 5 kJ/mol and ΔS = - 0.0908 ± 0.24 kJ/mol K-1, indicating the involvement of van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds in the interaction between NTBC and BSA. Moreover, the interaction's spontaneous nature was evidenced by negative ΔG values across all temperatures. Using dynamic light scattering, it was observed that higher NTBC concentrations led to a gradual rise in hydrodynamic diameter and notable aggregation of the NTBC-BSA complex. Moreover, changing signal values and shifted peaks of BSA, NTBC, and complex in differential scanning calorimetry curves, meant there were molecular interactions between the NTBC and BSA. In silico approaches also elucidated how NTBC binds to active sites on BSA, further supporting other findings. Moreover, molecular docking studies offer a more profound insight into the changing dynamics of hydrophobic, hydrogen, and halogen bonding involved in stabilizing the NTBC-BSA complex.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus characterized by abnormal glucose concentration is a metabolic disease. α-Glu inhibitors from natural sources are a good choice for searching for high-efficiency and low-toxicity hypoglycemic drugs. In this study, a naturally effective α-Glu inhibitor aspergillus triazolate A (ATA) with a peculiar structure was first found in Oxalis corniculate L., then its activity and mechanism were first elucidated through various methods. These mechanisms included enzyme kinetics, circular dichroism spectra, fluorescence spectra, synchronous fluorescence spectrum, 3D fluorescence spectrum, and molecular docking. Meanwhile, the ability to reduce postprandial blood glucose was further investigated in vivo. Research results revealed that ATA was a mixed type α-Glu inhibitor with an IC50 value of 66.87 ± 1.50 μM, which bound to the enzyme from a single site through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic forces causing the looser secondary structure of α-Glu. It was also found that the binding site of α-Glu was closer to the Trp residue, and the endogenous fluorescence of α-Glu was quenched in a static quenching form. Moreover, the sucrose loading test in vivo revealed that the ATA of 20 mg/kg could effectively reduce the postprandial blood glucose level. Hence, ATA could be used as lead compound to develop novel α-Glu inhibitors.

Abstract
Phenyl isothiocyanate and benzoyl isothiocyanate are the phytochemicals present in the Brassicaceae family. They have antibacterial, antiapoptotic and antifungal properties. Protein-small molecule interaction studies are done to assess the changes in structure, dynamics, and functions of protein and to decipher the binding mechanism. This study is based on the comparative binding of PT and BT with human lysozyme using in vitro and computational techniques. UV, fluorescence emission, and FRET spectra gave insight into the complex formation, quenching mechanism, and binding parameters. Both PT and BT quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of Lyz by a static quenching mechanism. Synchronous, 3D fluorescence and CD spectroscopy substantiated conformational and microenvironmental alterations in the Lyz. The metal ions and β-cyclodextrin had a pronounced effect on the binding strength of Lyz-PT and Lyz-BT complexes. Accessible surface area analysis was determined to characterise the amino acid residue packing. Molecular docking further validated the wet lab experimental results.

Abstract
Mycobacterium leprae, the causative organism of leprosy, harbors many antigenic proteins, and one such protein is the 18-kDa antigen. This protein belongs to the small heat shock protein family and is commonly known as HSP18. Its chaperone function plays an important role in the growth and survival of M. leprae inside infected hosts. HSP18/18-kDa antigen is often used as a diagnostic marker for determining the efficacy of multidrug therapy (MDT) in leprosy. However, whether MDT drugs (dapsone, clofazimine, and rifampicin) do interact with HSP18 and how these interactions affect its structure and chaperone function is still unclear. Here, we report evidence of HSP18-dapsone/clofazimine/rifampicin interaction and its impact on the structure and chaperone function of HSP18. These three drugs interact efficiently with HSP18 (having submicromolar binding affinity) with 1 : 1 stoichiometry. Binding of these MDT drugs to the 'α-crystallin domain' of HSP18 alters its secondary structure and tryptophan micro-environment. Furthermore, surface hydrophobicity, oligomeric size, and thermostability of the protein are reduced upon interaction with these three drugs. Eventually, all these structural alterations synergistically decrease the chaperone function of HSP18. Interestingly, the effect of rifampicin on the structure, stability, and chaperone function of this mycobacterial small heat shock protein is more pronounced than the other two MDT drugs. This reduction in the chaperone function of HSP18 may additionally abate M. leprae survivability during multidrug treatment. Altogether, this study provides a possible foundation for rational designing and development of suitable HSP18 inhibitors in the context of effective treatment of leprosy.

Abstract
The inhibition of α-glucosidase and glycation is closely related to the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications. In this study, quercetin-3-O-glucuronide (Q3GA) showed reversible and mixed-mode inhibition of α-glucosidase activity, with an IC50 value of 108.11 ± 4.61 μM. This was mainly due to the spontaneous formation of Q3GA-α-glucosidase driven by hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces, which could change the microenvironments and conformation of α-glucosidase. In addition, Q3GA showed strong suppression of the formation of glycation products, including fructosamine, advanced glycation end products (AGEs), and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF). Molecular docking analysis demonstrated that Q3GA entered the hydrophobic pocket of ovalbumin to form six hydrogen bonds with amino acid residues, which affected the glycation process. These findings indicate that Q3GA is an excellent inhibitor of α-glucosidase and glycation, and promote its development as a drug or dietary supplement for DM.

Abstract
Loratadine is an important anti-allergic drug. It is a second generation antihistamine drug used to treat allergic rhinitis, hay fever and urticaria. Human serum alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AG) is an important acute phase protein and its serum concentration is found to increase in inflammation and acute response.The binding interaction between loratadine and AG is studied using spectroscopy and molecular docking techniques. The results obtained from fluorescence quenching experiments demonstrated that the fluorescence intensity of AG is quenched by loratadine. Loratadine was found to bind AG with the binding constant of ≈104 at 298 K. The Gibb's free energy change was found to be negative for the interaction of loratadine with AG indicating the binding process is spontaneous. Binding of loratadine with AG induced ordered structures in the protein. Hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions were the main bonding forces between AG-loratadine as revealed by molecular docking results. This study suggests the importance of binding of anti-allergic drug to AG spatially in the diseases where the plasma concentration of AG increases many folds and interaction with this protein becomes significant. This study will help in design of drug dosage and adjustment accordingly to achieve optimal treatment outcome. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Pidilizumab is a monoclonal antibody tested against several types of malignancies, such as lymphoma and metastatic melanoma, showing promising results. In 2016, the FDA put Pidilizumab's clinical studies on partial hold due to emerging evidence pointing to the antibody target uncertainty. Although initial studies indicated an interaction with the PD-1 checkpoint receptor, recent updates assert that Pidilizumab binds primarily to Notch ligand DLL1. However, a detailed description of which interactions coordinate antibody-antigen complex formation is lacking. Therefore, this study uses computational tools to identify molecular interactions between Pidilizumab and its reported targets PD-1 and DLL1. A docking methodology was validated and applied to determine the binding modes between modeled Pidilizumab scFvs and the two antigens. We used Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations to verify the complexes' stability and submitted the resulting trajectory files to MM/PBSA and Principal Component Analysis. A set of different prediction tools determined scFv interface hot-spots. Whereas docking and MD simulations revealed that the antibody fragments do not interact straightforwardly with PD-1, ten scFv hot-spots, including Met93 and Leu112, mediated the interaction with the DLL1 C2 domain. The interaction triggered a conformational selection-like effect on DLL1, allowing new hydrogen bonds on the β3-β4 interface loop. The unprecedented structural data on Pidilizumab's interactions provided novel evidence that its legitimate target is the DLL1 protein and offered structural insight on how these molecules interact, shedding light on the pathways that could be affected by the use of this essential immunobiological.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Binding interactions of the phenazinium dye Janus green blue (JGB) with human and bovine serum albumins (BSA - and BSA) have been explored for the first time from multi-spectroscopic and calorimetric measurements aided by in silico calculations. The formation of ground state complexes between JGB and the respective serum albumins have been suggested from the UV-Vis and steady-state fluorescence spectroscopic studies. The nonlinear Stern Volmer (SV) plots at higher concentrations of JGB primarily indicate the formation of more than one ground state complexes in BSA -/BSA-JGB systems. Modified SV plots and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) studies however signify the possibilities of one type of binding complexes between HSA/BSA - JGB systems. Binding constants and the thermodynamic parameters associated with the HSA/BSA-JGB complexes have also been estimated from the ITC studies. Förster distances (R0) for HSA-JGB and BSA-JGB complexes are estimated from Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) results. Variations in the micro-environment of the Tyr and Trp residues of the serum proteins in presence of JGB have been observed from the synchronous fluorescence measurements. The conformational changes in the protein structures induced by the dye JGB have been revealed from 3 D fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) studies. The experimental observations are supported by in silico calculations. This in depth investigation on the interactions of serum albumins with JGB may provide the fundamental information toward exploring the therapeutic efficacy of JGB as a potent drug molecule.

Abstract
In the present study, we employ fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and molecular docking methods. Binding of anticancer drug anastrozole with human lysozyme (HL) is studied. Binding of anastrozole to HL is moderate but spontaneous. There is anastrozole persuaded hydrodynamic change in HL, leading to molecular compaction. Binding of anastrozole to HL also decreased in vitro lytic activity of HL. Molecular docking results suggest the electrostatic interactions and van der Waals forces played key role in binding interaction of anastrozole near the catalytic site. Binding interaction of anastrozole to proteins other than major transport proteins in blood can significantly affect pharmacokinetics of this molecule. Hence, rationalizing drug dosage is important. This study also points to unrelated effects that small molecules bring in the body that are considerable and need thorough investigation.

Abstract
Interaction of levocabastine with human serum albumin (HSA) is investigated by applying fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism spectroscopy and molecular docking methods. Levocabastine is an important drug in treatment of allergy and currently a target drug for drug repurposing to treat other diseases like vernal keratoconjuctivitis. Fluorescence quenching data revealed that levocabastine bind weakly to protein with binding constant in the order of 103 M-1. Förster resonance energy transfer results indicated the binding distance of 2.28 nm for levocabastine. Synchronous fluorescence result suggest slight blue shift for tryptophan upon levocabastine binding, binding of levocabastine impelled rise in α-helical structure in protein, while there are minimal changes in tertiary structure in protein. Moreover, docking results indicate levocabastine binds to pocket near to the drug site-I in HSA via hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Understanding the interaction of levocabastine with HSA is significant for the advancement of therapeutic and diagnostic strategies for optimal treatment results.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
The present study was aimed at investigating the binding between an important drug of Alzheimer's therapy, Rivastigmine tartrate (RT), with Bovine serum albumin (BSA). BSA is a model protein that is increasingly being used for studies related to drug-protein interaction owing to its structural similarity with human serum albumin (HSA) which is extremely abundant in the circulatory system comprising around 60% of the total plasma protein. Fluorescence spectroscopy implied that complex formation is taking place between BSA and RT; binding constant calculated was of the order of 104 M-1 implicative of the strength of this interaction. Fluorescence spectroscopy was carried out at three different temperatures in a bid to find out the operative mode of quenching; static quenching was taking place for RT-BSA interaction with a binding constant of 2.5 × 104 M-1 at 298 K. Further, changes in Far UV CD spectra clearly implied that RT induces structural transition in BSA suggestive of RT-BSA complex formation. The negative value of ∆G0 as obtained from fluorescence spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) suggests the reaction to be spontaneous and thermodynamically favorable. Additionally, molecular docking was employed to investigate different forces and critical residues involved in RT-BSA interaction. Furthermore, all-atom molecular dynamics simulation for 50 ns was performed on the BSA-RT complex to investigate its conformational behavior, stability and dynamics.

Abstract
The intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis can survive and replicate within host macrophages. Among various immunomodulatory substances, macrophages also produce α1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) which is secreted into the extracellular matrix of tuberculosis granulomas that represents a specific binding environment. Employing circular dichroism (CD) and UV/VIS absorption spectroscopic methods, we demonstrated and evaluated the AAG binding properties of novel antitubercular drug candidates developed against sensitive and multidrug-resistant strains of M. tuberculosis. As inferred from the CD spectroscopic data, these chemically diverse organic molecules are engulfed within the β-barrel of the protein either in a monomeric or dimeric form. Molecular docking simulations suggested the importance of H-bonds and ligand-aromatic residue π-π stacking interactions in stabilizing the drug molecules at the protein binding site. Based on the estimated Kd values (7-20 μM), AAG could be considered as the significant binding partner of the antitubercular agents studied herein. As such, it may affect the drug distribution and bioavailability not only in serum but also in macrophages and in the extracellular matrix of tuberculosis granulomas.

Abstract
Although Albumin (ALB) and alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) have distinctive structural and functional characteristics, they both play a key role in binding a large variety of endogenous and exogenous ligands. An extensive binding to these plasma proteins could have a potential impact on drugs disposition (e.g. bioavailability, distribution and clearance), on their innocuity and their efficacy. This review summarizes the common knowledge about the structural and molecular characteristics of both ALB and AGP in humans, and about the most involved amino acids in their high-affinity binding pockets. However, the variability in residues found in binding pockets, for the same species, allows each plasma protein to interact differently with the ligands. The protein-ligand interaction influences differently the disposition of drugs that bind to either of these plasma proteins. The content of this review is useful for the design of new drug entities with high-binding characteristics, in qualitative and quantitative modelling (e.g. in vitro-in vivo extrapolations, 3D molecular docking, interspecies extrapolations), and for other interdisciplinary research.

Abstract
Capecitabine as a prodrug of 5-Fluorouracil plays an important role in the treatment of breast and gastrointestinal cancers. Herein, in view of the importance of this drug in chemotherapy, interaction mechanism between Capecitabine (CAP) and human serum albumin (HSA) as a major transport protein in the blood circulatory system has been investigated by using a combination of spectroscopic and molecular modeling methods. The fluorescence spectroscopic results revealed that capecitabine could effectively quench the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a static quenching mechanism. Evaluation of the thermodynamic parameters suggested that the binding process was spontaneous while hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces played a major role in this interaction. The value of the binding constant (Kb = 1.820 × 104) suggested a moderate binding affinity between CAP and HSA which implies its easy diffusion from the circulatory system to the target tissue. The efficiency of energy transfer and the binding distance between the donor (HSA) and acceptor (CAP) were determined according to forster theory of nonradiation energy transfer as 0.410 and 4.135 nm, respectively. Furthermore, UV-Vis spectroscopic results confirmed that the interaction was occurred between HSA and CAP and caused conformational and micro-environmental changes of HSA during the interaction. Multivariate curve resolution-alternating least square (MCR-ALS) methodology as an efficient chemometric tool was used to separate the overlapped spectra of the species. The MCR-ALS result was exploited to estimate the stoichiometry of interaction and to provide concentration and structural information about HSA-CAP interactions. Molecular docking studies suggested that CAP binds mainly to the subdomain IIA of HSA, which were compatible with those obtained by experimental data. Finally, molecular dynamics simulation (MD) was performed on the best docked complex by considering the permanence and flexibility of HSA-CAP complex in the binding site. MD result showed that CAP could steadily bind to HSA in the site I based on the formation of hydrogen bond and π-π stacking interaction in addition to hydrophobic force.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the interaction mechanism of a hypoglycemic agent, trelagliptin (TLP), and human serum albumin (HSA) through computer simulation and assisted spectroscopy methods. Computer simulation including molecular docking and molecular dynamics analysis was conducted under physiological conditions. Molecular docking results indicate that TLP bound to HSA at site I, and the binding behavior was mainly governed by hydrophobic force. Competitive experiments further verified the theoretical conclusion from molecular docking. Molecular dynamics simulation revealed that TLP indeed stably bound to site I of HSA in the hydrophobic subdomain IIA. Moreover, TLP presented a certain effect on the structural compactness of HSA. In molecular dynamics simulation, hydrogen bonds appeared, which suggested the reliability and stability of the combination. The binding energy of the stable phase is around -250 kJ/mol. Fluorescence quenching studies and time-resolved fluorescence analysis indicated that the evident fluorescence quenching phenomenon of HSA could be due to TLP binding initiated by static quenching mechanism. The binding constants (Ka) of the complex were found to be around 104 via fluorescence data, and the calculated thermodynamic parameters indicated that hydrophobic force played major role in the binding of TLP to HSA. Synchronous fluorescence and three-dimensional fluorescence results demonstrated that TLP slightly disturbed the microenvironment of amino residues. Circular dichroism spectra showed that TLP affected the secondary structure of HSA. The theoretical and experimental results showed excellent agreement.

Abstract
The association of protein aggregates with plentiful human diseases has fascinated studies regarding the biophysical characterization of protein misfolding and ultimately their aggregate formation mechanism. Protein-ligand interaction, their mechanism, conformational changes by ligands, and protein aggregate formation have been studied upon exploiting experimental techniques and computational methodologies. Such studies for the exploration of ligand-induced conformational changes in protein, misfolding and aggregation, has confirmed drastic progresses in the study of aggregate formation pathways. This review comprises of an inclusive description of contemporary experimental techniques as well as theoretical improvements in the interpretation of the conformational properties of protein. We have also discussed various factors responsible for the microenvironment change around protein that sequentially causes amyloidoses. Biophysical techniques and cell-based assays to gain comprehensive understandings of protein-ligand interaction, protein folding, and aggregation pathways have also been described. The promising therapeutic methods used to inhibit the protein fibrillogenesis have also been discussed.

Abstract
The interactions of levofloxacin (LEV) with lysozyme (LYZ), trypsin and bovine hemoglobin (BHb) were investigated, respectively, by using multi-spectral techniques and molecular docking in vitro. Fluorescence studies showed that LEV quenched LYZ/trypsin fluorescence in a combined quenching ways and BHb fluorescence in a static quenching with binding constants of .14, .51 and .20 × 105 L mol-1 at 298 K, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters demonstrated that hydrophobic forces, hydrogen bonds, and van der Waals forces played the major role in the binding process. The binding distances between LEV and the inner tryptophan residues of LYZ, trypsin, and BHb were calculated to be 4.04, 3.38, and 4.52 nm, respectively. Furthermore, the results of circular dichroism spectra (CD), UV-vis, and three-dimensional fluorescence spectra indicated that the secondary structures of LYZ, trypsin, and BHb were partially changed by LEV with the α-helix percentage of LYZ-LEV system increased while that of BHb-LEV system was decreased, the β-sheet percentage of trypsin-LEV system increased from 41.3 to 42.9%. UV-vis spectral results showed that the binding interactions could cause conformational and some micro-environmental changes of LYZ, trypsin, and BHb. The results of molecular docking revealed that in LYZ and trypsin systems, LEV bound to the active sites residues GLU 35 and ASP 52 of LYZ and trypsin at the active site SER 195, and in BHb system, LEV was located in the central cavity, which was consistent with the results of synchronous fluorescence experiment. Besides, LEV made the activity of LYZ decrease while the activity of trypsin increased.

Abstract
Therapeutic effects of saffron ingredients were studied in some diseases. The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of these ingredients were also studied, but their transport mechanism is not clearly known. Serum albumin has been known as the most important transporter of many drugs in the body that affects their disposition, transportation, and bioavailability. Here, we investigated the interaction of crocin (Cro) with HSA, for the first time, and compared with the crocetin (Crt)-HSA interaction. UV and fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD), and molecular docking was applied to investigate the possibility and mechanism of binding of HSA with these natural carotenoids. The gradually addition of Cro increased HSA absorbency at 278 nm, while Crt decreased it. Both of these changes induced HSA unfolding that was confirmed by the decreased α-helix content, as determined by the CD. Both carotenoids quenched HSA fluorescence emission, but with different mechanisms. The Stern-Volmer plots indicated a dynamic quenching of intrinsic emission of HSA due to Cro addition, while Crt quenching followed both static and dynamic quenching mechanisms. Docking results indicated binding of Cro/Crt in sub-domain IIA, Sudlow site I of HSA, which accompanied with the hydrogen bonding of Cro/Crt with Tyr138. The interaction of these ligands (Cro/Crt) caused HSA unfolding and affects the hydrophobic environment of Trp241, which result in the quenching of Trp fluorescence. The UV spectroscopy and fluorescence quenching data indicated the differences in the mechanisms of interaction of Cro/Crt with HSA, which is due to the differences in the structure and hydrophobicity of these ligands.

Abstract
Cruciferous vegetables contain the bio-active compound sulforaphane (SF) which has been reported to protect individuals against various diseases by a number of mechanisms, including activation of the phase II detoxification enzymes. In this study, we show that the extracts of five cruciferous vegetables that we commonly consume and SF activate human salivary aldehyde dehydrogenase (hsALDH), which is a very important detoxifying enzyme in the mouth. Maximum activation was observed at 1 μg/ml of cabbage extract with 2.6 fold increase in the activity. There was a ~1.9 fold increase in the activity of hsALDH at SF concentration of ≥ 100 nM. The concentration of SF at half the maximum response (EC50 value) was determined to be 52 ± 2 nM. There was an increase in the Vmax and a decrease in the Km of the enzyme in the presence of SF. Hence, SF interacts with the enzyme and increases its affinity for the substrate. UV absorbance, fluorescence and CD studies revealed that SF binds to hsALDH and does not disrupt its native structure. SF binds with the enzyme with a binding constant of 1.23 x 107 M-1. There is one binding site on hsALDH for SF, and the thermodynamic parameters indicate the formation of a spontaneous strong complex between the two. Molecular docking analysis depicted that SF fits into the active site of ALDH3A1, and facilitates the catalytic mechanism of the enzyme. SF being an antioxidant, is very likely to protect the catalytic Cys 243 residue from oxidation, which leads to the increase in the catalytic efficiency and hence the activation of the enzyme. Further, hsALDH which is virtually inactive towards acetaldehyde exhibited significant activity towards it in the presence of SF. It is therefore very likely that consumption of large quantities of cruciferous vegetables or SF supplements, through their activating effect on hsALDH can protect individuals who are alcohol intolerant against acetaldehyde toxicity and also lower the risk of oral cancer development.

Abstract
Conalbumin aggregates at 65 °C and denaturation occur at above this temperature. The nature of aggregates was identified as amorphous. The polyols inhibits the aggregation of conalbumin via protecting the secondary structure. Glycerol is found to be more protective than ethylene glycol.
Under physical or chemical stress, proteins tend to form aggregates either highly ordered (amyloid) or unordered (amorphous) causing many pathological disorders in human and loss of proteins functionality in both laboratory conditions and industries during production and storage at commercial level. We investigated the effect of increasing temperature on Conalbumin (CA) and induced aggregation at 65 °C. The enhanced Thioflavin T (ThT) and ANS (1-anilinonaphtalene 8-sulfonic acid) fluorescence intensity, show no shift on Congo red binding, additionally, transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM) (SEM) reveal amorphous morphology of the aggregate. Our investigation clearly demonstrated that polyols namely Glycerol (GL) and Ethylene glycol (EG) are so staunch to inhibit amorphous aggregates via restoring secondary conformation. Addition of polyols (15% GL and 35% EG) significantly decrease the turbidity, Rayleigh scattering ThT and ANS fluorescence intensity. The dynamic light scattering (DLS) data show that hydrodynamic radii (Rh) of the aggregates is ∼20 times higher than native CA while nearly similar for GL and EG protected CA due to condensation of core size with little difference.

Abstract
The present study details the binding process of clofazimine to hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) using spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and molecular docking techniques. Clofazimine binds to the protein with binding constant (Kb) in the order of 1.57 × 104 at 298 K. Binding process is spontaneous and exothermic. Molecular docking results suggested the involvement of hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions in the binding process. Bacterial cell lytic activity in the presence of clofazimine increased to more than 40% of the value obtained with HEWL only. Interaction of the drug with HEWL induced ordered secondary structure in the protein and molecular compaction. Clofazimine also effectively inhibited the sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) induced amyloid formation in HEWL and caused disaggregation of preformed fibrils, reinforcing the notion that there is involvement of hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding in the binding process of clofazimine with HEWL and clofazimine destabilizes the mature fibrils. Further, TEM images confirmed that fibrillar species were absent in the samples where amyloid induction was performed in the presence of clofazimine. As clofazimine is a drug less explored for the inhibition of fibril formation of the proteins, this study reports the inhibition of SDS-induced amyloid formation of HEWL by clofazimine, which will help in the development of clofazimine-related molecules for the treatment of amyloidosis.

Abstract
Exogenous drugs that are used as antidote against chemotheray, inflammation or viral infection, gets absorbed and interacts reversibly to the major serum transport protein i.e. albumins, upon entering the circulatory system. To have a structural guideline in the rational drug designing and in the synthesis of drugs with greater efficacy, the binding mechanism of an antineoplastic and anti-inflammatory drug Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) with human and bovine serum albumins (HSA & BSA) were examined by spectroscopic and computational methods. NDGA binds to site II of HSA with binding constant (Kb) ~105 M-1 and free energy (ΔG) ~ -7.5 kcal.mol-1. It also binds at site II of BSA but with lesser binding affinity (Kb) ~105 M-1 and ΔG ~ -6.5 kcal.mol-1. The negative value of ΔG, ΔH and ΔS for both the albumins at three different temperatures confirmed that the complex formation process between albumins and NDGA is spontaneous and exothermic. Furthermore, hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions are the main forces involved in complex formation of NDGA with both the albumins as evaluated from fluorescence and molecular docking results. Binding of NDGA to both the albumins alter the conformation and causes minor change in the secondary structure of proteins as indicated by the CD spectra.
