the surface parameter of nanoparticles such as hydrophobicity and a hydrophilicity on protein structure and function is very important. in this study, conformational changes of glucose oxidase (gox) in the mercaptopurine: gnps and 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid: gnps as a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic gnps surface was investigated by various spectroscopic techniques, including: uv-vis absorption, f...

in this study at first , an azo dye, 2,7- naphthalenediol, 2-[(4-bromophenyl)azo (bpand) as a ligand has been synthesized by addition of p-bromoaniline to the modified montomorillonite k10 clay. this ligand was characterized using 1h-nmr, uv-vis and ir spectroscopies. subsequently, its interaction with calf thymus deoxyribonucleicacid ,ct-dna was investigated in 5 mm phosphate buffer solution, ...

indium is a heavy metal belonging to group iiia. it is used as a radioimaging and chemotherapeutic agent in diagnosis and also in the treatment of cancers. it is believed that indium may interfere with iron metabolism and reduce cell growth in cancer tissue. the present report was established to study the binding of iron and indium to apo-transferrin (apo-tf) and to identify amino acids involve...

The effects of allopurinol, acyclovir and theophylline on the activity of adenosine deaminase (ADA) were studied in 50 mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.5 at 27°C, using a UV– Vis spectrophotometer. Adenosine deaminase is inhibited by these ligands, via different types of inhibition. Allopurinol, as a transition state analog of xanthine oxidase, and acyclovir competitively inhibit the catalytic a...

Indium is a heavy metal belonging to group IIIa. It is used as a radioimaging and chemotherapeutic agent in diagnosis and also in the treatment of cancers. It is believed that indium may interfere with iron metabolism and reduce cell growth in cancer tissue. The present report was established to study the binding of iron and indium to apo-transferrin (apo-tf) and to identify amino acids involv...

the characteristics of manganese and iron binding to human apotransferrin (apo-tf) have been investigated and compared in this study. both metal ions were taken up by human apo-tf and formed complexes, with the maximum absorbances observed at 410 and 340 nm for manganese-transferrin (mn-tf) and 465 nm for iron-transferrin (fe-tf). addition of manganese (1.5 µg/ml) to the reaction mixture contai...

a binding study of nickel ions by a new recombinant human growth hormone (hgh), produced as an injected drug, has been done at 27˚c in nacl solution (50 mm) using an isothermal titration calorimetry. there is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for nickel ions. the intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 40 μm and -16.5 kj/mol, re...
