The effect of pH and temperature on the association equilibrium constant (Ka) for the binding of the trypsin inhibitor from white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seeds (MTI) to bovine beta-trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) has been investigated. On lowering the pH from 9 to 3, values of Ka for MTI binding to bovine beta-trypsin decrease thus reflecting the acid-pK and -midpoint shifts, upon inhibitor association, of two independent ionizable groups, and of a three-proton transition, respectively. At pH 8.0, values of thermodynamic parameters for MTI binding to bovine beta-trypsin are: Ka = 4.5 X 10(8)M-1, delta G0 = -11.6 kcal/mol, and delta S0 = +53 entropy units (all at 21 degrees C); and delta H0 = +4.1 kcal/mol (temperature independent between 5 degrees C and 45 degrees C). Binding properties of MTI to bovine beta-trypsin have been analyzed in parallel with those concerning macromolecular inhibitor association to serine (pro)enzymes.

Different kinds of proteins interact with the digestible lipids in various ways, affecting the adsorption behavior of proteins and digestion. The ordered porous layer interferometry (OPLI) system was constructed by the silica colloidal crystal (SCC) films used to monitor the real-time binding assessment between bovine serum albumin (BSA), casein, fibrinogen, and triolein. The OPLI system reflected the changes in protein mass on the SCC films in real time through the migration of the interference spectrum of the SCC films, which was converted into the changes in optical thickness (ΔOT) that can be monitored.

Filling the microchannel with negatively charged hydrogel can exhibit microsacle ion current rectification (ICR) behavior, which is attributed to the space negative charge and structural asymmetry of hydrogel. In this study, this character had been applied to develop a trypsin sensor for the first time. A hydrogel synthesized with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and glyoxal (BSAG hydrogel) was filled at the tip of microchannel firstly.

Sharing the same photoexcitation process, fluorescence (FL) and photoelectrochemistry (PEC) accomplish optical-optical and optical-electrochemical switches respectively, and are both widely used in diverse fields. However, since FL and PEC are mutually exclusive in principle, it is difficult to obtain intense FL and PEC responses in a system, limiting FL-PEC dual-mode applications. In this study, AgS quantum dots (QDs) and In(OH) nanoblocks (NBs) are simultaneously synthesized by BSA-templated bio-mineralization, and the excited state electrons of AgS/In(OH)@BSA nanocomposites (NCs) are further regulated by a proteolysis process.

When developing immunochemical test systems, it is necessary to obtain specific antibodies. Their quality depends, among other things, on the immunogen used. When preparing hapten-protein conjugates to obtain antibodies for low-molecular-weight compounds, the key factors are the structure of the hapten itself, the presence of a spacer, the size of the carrier protein and the degree of its modification by hapten molecules.
