In this study, we demonstrate that the conformational state of the substrate critically influences proteolytic efficiency. Using human serum albumin (HSA) as a model substrate, papain as the enzyme, and urea as a controlled denaturing agent, we systematically investigated how substrate conformation might affect proteolysis. While papain maintains its structural and functional integrity across varying urea concentrations, HSA transitions through well-defined conformational states (native, compact intermediate, and unfolded), allowing us an opportunity to isolate the effects of the substrate structure. Utilizing site-specific fluorescent labeling and single-molecule fluorescence correlation spectroscopy, we monitor the progression of proteolysis. Our results show that digestion slows at 3M urea, where HSA adopts a compact form, and accelerates at 6M, where HSA takes on an unfolded state, compared to native HSA. These results reveal that substrate folding critically influences the digestion kinetics, probably by controlling protease accessibility and underscoring its importance in mechanistic enzymology and proteomics workflows.</p>","PeriodicalId":9053,"journal":{"name":"Biointerphases","volume":"20 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144942012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Metal ions are known to influence underwater adhesion by regulating cohesion between adhesive proteins and interactions at the underwater material interface. However, direct mechanistic evidence of Ca2+ involvement in adhesion of marine organisms remains insufficient. In this study, we investigated the role of Ca2+ in permanent underwater adhesion of ascidian adhesive protein 1 (AAP1), an adhesive protein identified from the ascidian Ciona robusta, a model marine invasive fouling species. Using in vitro experiments, we examined AAP1's cohesion and interfacial adhesion under varying Ca2+ concentrations (0, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, and 25.0 mM). Our results indicated that Ca2+ mediated both cohesion and interfacial adhesion in a concentration-dependent manner. Protein aggregation was induced at 10.0 and 25.0 mM, with denser aggregation at higher concentrations. Surface force apparatus measurements showed a peak in cohesion energy at 25.0 mM Ca2+, while interfacial adhesion energy reached a maximum at 10.0 mM. These results suggest that Ca2+ may facilitate cohesion via salt bridge formation and promote interfacial adhesion by mediating electrostatic interactions between AAP1 and material surfaces. Additionally, the cohesion of AAP1 may enhance molecular alignment on surfaces, contributing its interfacial adhesion. Overall, our results provide direct evidence for the involvement of Ca2+ in protein-mediated ascidian underwater adhesion. These findings will deepen our understanding of the mechanisms of underwater adhesion in aquatic organisms and guide the future development of antifouling strategies and bioinspired underwater adhesives.</p>","PeriodicalId":9053,"journal":{"name":"Biointerphases","volume":"20 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145273738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their cellular permeability is hindered by strong electrostatic repulsion from negatively charged cellular membranes, posing a significant obstacle to the use of DNA nanostructures as a drug delivery vehicle. Recent experimental studies have shown enhanced cellular uptake for the conjugate binary mixtures of DNA Tetrahedron (TDN) with cationic lipid N-[1-(2,3-dioleyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride (DOTMA) compared to TDN alone. However, the cationic DOTMA lipid binding mechanism with the TDN nucleotides is still elusive. Using fully atomistic MD simulations, we aim to understand the molecular interactions that drive the formation and stability of the TDN-DOTMA binary complexes in a physiological environment. Our results uncovered that lipid concentration plays a crucial role in the energetics of the TDN-DOTMA association. We also report that distinct time scales are associated with the self-assembly of cationic DOTMA lipids first, followed by the complexation of self-assembled DOTMA lipid clusters with the TDN nucleotides, where electrostatics, hydrophobicity, and hydrogen bonding are the key interactions that drive the formation and stability of these complexes.

This study investigates the impact of prolonged vacuum exposure on the consistency and reliability of MS detection of thin films of acetaminophen using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Under vacuum at room temperature, the mass spectrometry signal intensity decreased by approximately 81.5% over the duration of the experiment (42 h). Optical microscopy revealed that this decrease coincided with sublimation-induced sample loss of the acetaminophen. As a result, acetaminophen coverage across the substrate became heterogeneous, leading to increased relative standard deviation (RSD) in the SIMS signal over time. In contrast, under cryogenic conditions, neither signal degradation nor an increase in RSD was observed. Additionally, a comparison with atmospheric pressure mass spectrometry revealed that, in the absence of vacuum, signal intensity remained more stable over time. These findings highlight the potential drawbacks of vacuum exposure for volatile standards and emphasize the importance of testing vacuum effects prior to analysis.
