| Abstract | Isocarbophos (ICP) is a phosphorous pesticide with high toxicity. It has been detected in several kinds of food and therefore can enter human body. In this paper, spectroscopic approaches including three-dimensional fluorescence (3D-FL) spectroscopy, UV-visible absorption spectroscopy and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy were employed to explore the binding of ICP to bovine serum albumin (BSA) at simulated physiological conditions. It was found that the fluorescence quenching of BSA was caused by the formation of ICP-BSA complex at ground state and belonged to static quenching mechanism. The binding constants, the number of binding sites, enthalpy change (ΔH(θ)), Gibbs free energy change (ΔG(θ)) and entropy change (ΔS(θ)) were calculated at four different temperatures according to Scatchard model and thermodynamic equations. To identify the binding location, fluorescence probe techniques were used. The results showed that warfarin, an acknowledged site marker for BSA, could be partially replaced by ICP when ICP was added to warfarin-BSA systems, which demonstrated that ICP primarily bound on Sudlow's site I in domain IIA of BSA molecule. The distance r (3.06 nm) between donor (Trp-212) and acceptor (ICP) was obtained based on Förster's non-radiation fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) theory. Furthermore, the CD spectral results indicated that the secondary structure of BSA was changed in presence of ICP. The study is helpful to evaluating the toxicology of ICP and understanding its effects on the function of protein during the blood transportation process. |

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.
