Abstract

Oxidative stress is a physiological condition where oxygen radicals are responsible for the conformational restructuring and loss of functionality of important biomacromolecules. Among the various external agents, UV irradiation is one of the sources that can induce oxidative stress. Here, we report an in vitro study to gauge the effect of ROS on the structural rearrangement of hen egg white lysozyme, a hydrolytic enzyme, via UVC exposure studied via various biophysical techniques. The investigations revealed a rise in the β-sheet content of the protein at the expense of a decrease in α-helix within ten minutes of exposure, thereby showing rapid changes in the secondary structure. While the unexposed sample showed partial reversibility after being subjected to a heating and cooling cycle, the newly formed structures via irradiation, on the other hand, were found to be more thermally stable. The aging of the samples via UVC exposure was reflected in both the UV-vis and PL spectra of the samples, as well as the loss of spectral features in the aliphatic and aromatic regions in the magnetic resonance spectrum. Finally, the increase in the hydrodynamic diameter of the samples shows cross-linking taking place due to the generated oxygen radicals.

UVC照射下氧化应激对蛋清溶菌酶结构重排的影响
氧化应激是一种生理状态,其中氧自由基负责重要生物大分子的构象重组和功能丧失。在各种外界因素中,紫外线照射是引起氧化应激的来源之一。在这里,我们报告了一项体外研究,通过UVC暴露来测量ROS对蛋清溶菌酶(一种水解酶)结构重排的影响。各种生物物理技术,如紫外-可见吸收;光致发光光谱、圆二色性、FTIR、动态光散射和核磁共振技术监测了结果。随着β片含量的增加,蛋白质的螺旋结构迅速丧失,在第一个小时内,螺旋结构从~34%下降到~7%,β片从~16%增加到~34%,之后变化很小。与天然溶菌酶的部分可逆性相比,紫外氧化导致样品的热稳定性。观察到蛋白质酰胺带的变化,以及紫外线-可见性的变化。样品的PL光谱。在磁共振谱中发现,随着暴露的增加,特征的丧失。最后,暴露后,通过产生的自由基交联观察到形态学变化。

期刊介绍: Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
