摘要: This study explores the binding interaction of thionine (TH) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) under physiological conditions (pH 7.40) using absorption, emission, synchronous circular dichroism (CD) and three-dimensional (3D) emission spectral studies. The results titration experiments revealed that TH strongly quenches intrinsic BSA via a static quenching mechanism. apparent constant (K) number sites (n) were calculated as 2.09 × 105 dm3/mol n~1, respectively. negative free energy change value for BSA–TH system suggested was spontaneous energetically favourable. from CD 3D studies demonstrated induces changes in microenvironment secondary structure BSA. Site marker competitive site located subdomain IIA (Sudlow I) molecular docking further substantiates Sudlow I preferable Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
