Using terahertz spectroscopy, we established the alteration of the collective hydration of water during the fibrillation process (native → intermediate → fibril) of a model protein bovine serum albumin.

AbstractThe efficacy of alcohol/sugar aqueous biphasic (ABS) system on protein extraction was investigated. A model protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), was adopted to evaluate the effects of types and concentration of phase-forming components, protein concentration, and system pH on the protein partition efficiency. The 1-propanol/maltose ABS exhibited an overall better partition efficiency of BSA to the alcohol-rich top phase. A maximum partition coefficient (K) of 20.01 ± 0.05 and recovery yield (Y) of 95.42% ± 0.01% of BSA were achieved with 35% (w/w) 1-propanol/22% (w/w) maltose ABS at pH 5.0 for 10% (w/w) BSA load. The K and Y of BSA in 1-propanol/maltose ABS was slightly improved with the addition of 3% (w/w) of ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([Bmim]Br) as the adjuvant that could provide protein stabilizing effect. The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrum (FTIR) analysis revealed that the protein structure remained unaltered upon the separation process.

We investigated the influence of THz laser radiation of frequencies of 1.15 THz and 3.68 THz and radiation power of about 10 Mw on protein (bovine serum albumin). Using UV spectrophotometry, we revealed increase in the optical density of irradiated samples of bovine serum albumin at the characteristic absorption bands, which is evidence of conformation changes in protein molecules

Single-molecule tracking reveals the protein bovine serum albumin exhibits anomalous kinetics with a heavy-tailed dwell time distribution on PEG surfaces. This effect is shown to be caused by the ability of the protein to oligomerize in solution.
