Within this Cys-His bridge, two possible ET pathways have been proposed: one proceeding through the peptide backbone atoms and another mediated by atoms involved in a hydrogen bond. A detailed atomistic understanding of both total and local transmission through the Cys-His bridge is therefore of great interest for elucidating the factors that regulate CuNiR activity. In this work, we characterize the topological features of the Cys-His bridge relevant to ET by combining density functional theory with nonequilibrium Green’s function transport calculations. We find that local transmissions near the Fermi energy involving hydrogen bond atoms constitute the dominant pathway. This pathway remains robust under small structural perturbations that weaken the hydrogen bond interaction, and only in the absence of the hydrogen bond does ET proceed through the backbone atoms, which then act as a secondary pathway. Importantly, quantum interference effects arising from the coexistence of the two competing pathways lead to a complete suppression of the backbone-mediated ET close to the <span><math><msub><mrow><mi>E</mi></mrow><mrow><mi>F</mi></mrow></msub></math></span>.

Here, fluorescence spectroscopy is used to probe PFOS and PFOA by utilizing a chromophore-bound serum albumin complex based on the squaraine (SQ) dye's photophysical properties. The prepared SQ herein interacted with bovine serum albumin (BSA) which forms SQ-BSA complex and showed strong fluorescence signal. Subsequent PFOS and PFOA addition revealed a gradual fluorescence turn-on and turn-off respectively, which continued to change along these two directions up to 20 μM. Overall, these sequentially studied tri-component systems (SQ, BSA, PFOS/PFOA) discriminative response relies on the SQ-BSA's different interacting behaviors with PFOS and PFOA. The discrimination ability of PFOS and PFOA by the SQ-BSA complex becomes ascribed by the different interacting abilities of these two harmful pollutants with BSA amongst various studies.
