Vitamin C-bovine serum albumin binding behaviour. 1987

E Meucci, and G E Martorana, and A Ursitti, and G A Miggiano, and A Mordente, and A Castelli

The binding of ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid to bovine serum albumin is greatly heterogeneous. The Hill plots, as evaluated from the fluorescence quenching measurements, clearly show a biphasic behaviour. Scatchard analysis moreover indicates that the potency and the pattern of the binding can change gradually in the process of occupation of various sites because of albumin structural modifications.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011485 Protein Binding The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments. Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein
D011487 Protein Conformation The characteristic 3-dimensional shape of a protein, including the secondary, supersecondary (motifs), tertiary (domains) and quaternary structure of the peptide chain. PROTEIN STRUCTURE, QUATERNARY describes the conformation assumed by multimeric proteins (aggregates of more than one polypeptide chain). Conformation, Protein,Conformations, Protein,Protein Conformations
D003683 Dehydroascorbic Acid The reversibly oxidized form of ascorbic acid. It is the lactone of 2,3-DIKETOGULONIC ACID and has antiscorbutic activity in man on oral ingestion. Acid, Dehydroascorbic
D001205 Ascorbic Acid A six carbon compound related to glucose. It is found naturally in citrus fruits and many vegetables. Ascorbic acid is an essential nutrient in human diets, and necessary to maintain connective tissue and bone. Its biologically active form, vitamin C, functions as a reducing agent and coenzyme in several metabolic pathways. Vitamin C is considered an antioxidant.
