The effect of the N-B transition of bovine and human serum albumins on the binding sites of fluorescent probes

Abstract: Abstract:The N(neutral)-B(alkaline) transition of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated with three anionic and one cationic dansyl (dimethylamino-naphthalenesulfonyl, DNS) probes. The N-B transition of the HSAprobe complex was characterized by a large enhancement of the fluorescence intensity of the dansyl group, accompanied by a blue-shift of the maximum wavelength in the emission spectra, and large changes in the thermodynamic parameters of the binding process. Contrary to… Show more
