| Abstract | We report the binding of the drug raloxifene with Calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the presence and absence of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and explain the influence of β-cyclodextrin on the binding of the drug to macromolecules. UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence, proton nuclear magnetic resonance and two-dimensional rotating-frame nuclear overhauser effect spectroscopic techniques are used to study the stoichiometry and the binding strength of the complexes. Molecular modeling is used in combination with other techniques to propose the structure of the inclusion complex and the interaction with ctDNA. The Stern–Volmer quenching constants of the interaction of raloxifene with ctDNA in aqueous and in β-CD solution are compared. The competition for binding of ctDNA with raloxifene and Methylene Blue is studied. The apparent binding constant and the number of binding sites for the binding of raloxifene with BSA in aqueous solution are significantly different from those in the presence of β-CD. The influence of β-CD on the binding of the small molecules with biological macromolecules is discussed. We infer that the binding strengths between raloxifene and macromolecules, viz., ctDNA and BSA are influenced by the β-CD encapsulation. These results may suggest new ways to tune the drug binding to biomacromolecules by encapsulating specific moieties of drugs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
