Abstract

The interaction between novel spiro[cyclopropane-pyrrolizin] (NSCP) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was analyzed by fluorescence and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy at 298 K, 304 K and 310 K under simulative physiological conditions. The results showed that NSCP can effectively quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA via static quenching. The binding constants, binding sites of NSCP with BSA were calculated. Hydrogen binds and van der Waals force played a major role in stabilizing the complex and the binding reaction were spontaneous. According to the Förster non-radiation energy transfer theory, the average binding distances between NSCP and BSA were obtained. What is more, the synchronous fluorescence spectra indicated that the conformation of BSA has been changed.
