Abstract
This review article provides an inclusive overview of the intricate interactions amid ionic liquids (ILs) and essential biomacromolecules, mainly hemoglobin (Hb), bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA), and calf thymus-DNA (CT-DNA). ILs have recently become a topic of great attention because of their inimitable physicochemical properties and potential uses in different fields. The review systematically explores the binding mechanisms, thermodynamics, and structural changes induced by ILs on Hb, BSA, HSA, and CT-DNA using spectroscopic, thermodynamic, and computational techniques. The article highlighted various experimental and computational methodologies to explore the interactions between ILs and biomacromolecules. It offers an in-depth analysis of the techniques employed to decode the intricate nature of these molecular associations and the influence of ILs along with their structural characteristics on the conformational stability, activity, and functionality of biomacromolecules. This foundational understanding is essential for advancing research and developing strategies that exploit the distinctive properties of ILs to foster innovative and sustainable applications within the biomedical field.

Abstract
In this work, we describe the synthesis, interactions with bovine serum albumin, and cytotoxicity of new ionic liquids based on 5-fluorouracil (API-ILs) with different cations (imidazolium, choline, isoquinolinium, guanidinium). The secondary and tertiary structure of BSA in solutions with different concentrations of API-ILs was monitored by the circular dichroism (CD) technique. The addition of API-ILs does not lead to structural changes in BSA. A quenching of fluorescence spectra intensity of BSA in presence of all API-ILs was observed, allowing the quantification of binding between API-ILs and BSA. The preferred localization of both ions in API-ILs differs significantly depending on the structure of the cation according to molecular docking. The aggregation of BSA in presence of API-ILs was analyzed by the dynamic light scattering (DLS) method, revealing a moderate increase in particle size. Cytotoxicity and selectivity of API-ILs on cancer and normal cell lines were estimated, showing a clear modification of the pharmaceutic activity of ionic liquid compared to 5-fluorouracil.

Exploring the Structural Importance of the C3=C4 Double Bond in Plant Alkaloids Harmine and Harmaline on Their Binding Interactions with Hemoglobin. ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:37054-37064. [PMID: 37841109 PMCID: PMC10568691 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c04432] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
Harmine and harmaline are two structurally similar heterocyclic β-carboline plant alkaloids with various therapeutic properties, having a slight structural difference in the C3=C4 double bond. In the present study, we have reported the nature of the interaction between hemoglobin (Hb) with harmine and harmaline by employing several multispectroscopic, calorimetric, and molecular docking approaches. Fluorescence spectroscopic studies have shown stronger interaction of harmine with Hb compared to that of almost structurally similar harmaline. Steady-state anisotropy experiments further show that the motional restriction of harmine in the presence of Hb is substantially higher than that of the harmaline-Hb complex. Circular dichroism (CD) study demonstrates no conformational change of Hb in the presence of both alkaloids, but CD study in 1-cm cuvette path length also demonstrates stronger affinity of harmine toward Hb compared to harmaline. From the thermal melting study, it has been found that both harmine and harmaline slightly affect the stability of Hb. From isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), we have found that the binding process is exothermic and enthalpy driven. Molecular docking studies indicated that both harmine and harmaline prefer identical binding sites in Hb. This study helps us to understand that slight structural differences in harmine and harmaline can alter the interaction properties significantly, and this key information may help in the drug discovery processes.
