The binding selectivity of quercetin and its structure-related polyphenols to human serum albumin using a fluorescent dye cocktail for multiplex drug-site mapping. Bioorg Chem 2024; 145:107184. [PMID: 38364549 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107184] [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: 12/18/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024]
Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) is a serum protein that carries flavonoids in blood circulation. In this report, the binding selectivity and strength of interactions to HSA-binding sites (sites I or II) by flavonoids were evaluated using competition experiments and the specific fluorescent dyes, dansylamide and BD140. Most tested flavonoids bound site I preferentially, with the binding strength dependent on the mother structure in the order flavonol > flavone > flavanone > flavan 3-ols. Glycosylation or glucuronidation reduced the binding of quercetin to site I of HSA, whereas sulfation increased binding. Quercetin 7-sulfate showed the strongest binding and molecular docking simulations supported this observation. Prenylation at any position or glucuronidation and sulfation at the C-4' or C-7 position of quercetin facilitated stronger binding to site II. The binding affinity of flavonoids toward site I correlated with the partition coefficient value (logP), whereas no corresponding correlation was observed for site II.

Abstract
Closantel is widely used in the management of parasitic infestation in livestock, but is contraindicated in humans due to its high toxic to human retina. Thus, development of a fast and selective method for the detection of closantel residues in animal products is highly needed yet still challenging. In the present study, we report a supramolecular fluorescent sensor for closantel detection through a two-step screening process. The fluorescent sensor can detect closantel with a fast response (<10 s), high sensitivity, and high selectivity. The limit of detection is 0.29 ppm, which is much lower than the maximum residue level set by government. Moreover, the applicability of this sensor has been demonstrated in commercial drugs tablets, injection fluids, and real edible animal products (muscle, kidney, and liver). This work provides the first fluorescence analytical tool for accurate and selective determination of closantel, and may inspire more sensor design for food analysis.

Exploring the interaction of myricetin with human alpha-2-macroglobulin: biophysical and in-silico analysis. J Biol Phys 2023; 49:29-48. [PMID: 36662317 PMCID: PMC9867608 DOI: 10.1007/s10867-022-09621-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 12/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Myricetin (MYR) is a bioactive secondary metabolite found in plants that is recognized for its nutraceutical value and is an essential constituent of various foods and beverages. It is reported to exhibit a plethora of activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory. Alpha-2-macroglobulin (α2M) is a major plasma anti-proteinase that can inhibit proteinases of both human and non-human origin, regardless of their specificity and catalytic mechanism. Here, we explored the interaction of MYR-α2M using various biochemical and biophysical techniques. It was found that the interaction of MYR brings subtle change in its anti-proteolytic potential and thereby alters its structure and function, as can be seen from absorbance and fluorescence spectroscopy. UV spectroscopy of α2M in presence of MYR indicated the occurrence of hyperchromism, suggesting complex formation. Fluorescence spectroscopy reveals that MYR reduces the fluorescence intensity of native α2M with a shift in the wavelength maxima. At 318.15 K, MYR binds to α2M with a binding constant of 2.4 × 103 M-1, which indicates significant binding. The ΔG value was found to be - 7.56 kcal mol-1 at 298.15 K, suggesting the interaction to be spontaneous and thermodynamically favorable. The secondary structure of α2M does not involve any major change as was confirmed by CD analysis. The molecular docking indicates that Asp-146, Ser-172, Glu-174, and Tyr-180 were the key residues involved in α2M-MYR complex formation. This study contributes to our understanding of the function and mechanism of protein and flavonoid binding by providing a molecular basis of the interaction between MYR and α2M.
