Bovine serum albumin (BSA) plays a crucial role as a carrier protein in plasma, binding various ligands, including drugs. Understanding the interaction between BSA and saquinavir, an antiretroviral drug, is essential for predicting its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. We employed spectroscopic approaches, including circular dichroism spectrometry and fluorescence spectroscopy, to investigate the binding of saquinavir to BSA.

Importantly, we explore the dynamics of the proposed system by including a flux term between the neurons. Primarily, the dynamical behaviors of the coupled Chialvo neurons are examined using the Lyapunov spectrum and bifurcation analysis.

The docking results suggests that the Wild type (WT-TTHA1873), R55A, R138A and double mutant R55A/R138A having docking scores of -225.80 kcal/mol, -209.

To begin with, bifurcation analysis is carried out in relation to the input current, resetting parameter, and adaptation time constant in order to comprehend dynamical transitions. We exemplify that the existence of period-1, period-2, and period-4 cycles depends on the magnitude of input current via period doubling and period halving bifurcations.
