The interaction between 3-spiro-2'-pyrrolidine-3'-spiro-3″-piperidine-2,3″-dione (PPD) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) in aqueous solution was studied using fluorescence and UV-vis spectroscopy. Fluorescence emission data revealed that BSA (1.00 × 10(-5) mol/L) fluorescence was statically quenched by PPD at various concentrations, which implies that a PPD-BSA complex was formed. The binding constant (KA ), the number of binding sites (n) and the specific binding site of the PPD with BSA were determined. Energy-transfer efficiency parameters were determined and the mechanism of the interaction discussed. The thermodynamic parameters, ΔG, ΔH and ΔS, were obtained according to van't Hoff's equation, showing the involvement of hydrophobic forces in these interactions. The effect of PPD acting on the BSA conformation was detected by synchronous fluorescence.

Intracellular delivery of proteins has attracted significant interest in biological research and cancer treatment, yet it continues to face challenges due to the lack of effective delivery approaches. Herein, we developed an efficient strategy cationic α-helical polypeptide-mediated anionic proprotein delivery. The protein was reversibly modified with adenosine triphosphate dynamic covalent chemistry to prepare an anionic proprotein (A-protein) with abundant phosphate groups.

The hydration shell of a protein is so important and an integral part of it, that protein's structure, stability and functionality cannot be conceived in its absence. This layer has unique properties not found in bulk water. However, ions, always present in the protein environment, disturb the hydration shell depending on their nature and concentration.

Developing a highly sensitive approach for neurotransmitter analysis is of vital significance due to their essential role in clinical diagnosis and treatment of disease. Herein, bovine serum albumin templated copper nanoparticles (BSA-Cu NPs) with peroxidase-mimicking activity are designed and synthesized for dopamine detection through the fluorometric/colorimetric dual-mode technique. The experimental results suggest that as-fabricated BSA-Cu NPs can strongly catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to produce oxidized substances, accompanied by remarkable color changes of chromogenic agent 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine from colorless to blue, revealing peroxidase-like activities of BSA-Cu NPs.
