    手性单壁碳纳米管与牛血红蛋白复合物氧化还原过程的光谱学研究

    Spectroscopic Analysis of the Redox Processes of the Ensemble between Chiral Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes and Bovine Hemoglobin Complex

    • 摘要: 探讨了未分离的单壁碳纳米管(SWCNTs),以及两种具有特定手性的单壁碳纳米管((6,5)-SWCNTs和(8,3)-SWCNTs)分别与牛血红蛋白(BHb)结合的相互作用,考察了3种SWCNTs对SWCNTs/BHb复合物氧化还原状态的光谱特性的影响。结果表明,SWCNTs与BHb的结合引起了BHb二级结构的显著变化,尤其是未分离的SWCNTs对BHb产生了最显著的影响,表现为BHb荧光强度的显著降低和α-螺旋结构的明显减少。在氧化过程中,BHb和SWCNTs在各自的最大发射波长处的荧光强度均有所增加;而在还原过程中,BHb和SWCNTs的荧光强度则逐渐恢复至原始状态。本文的研究结果可为血红蛋白氧化还原过程的监测提供一种新思路。

       

      Abstract: In this paper, unseparated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and two types of single-chiral SWCNTs, namely (6,5)-SWCNTs and (8,3)-SWCNTs, were used to associate with bovine hemoglobin (BHb), respectively. The interaction between SWCNTs and BHb, and the spectral responses corresponding to the redox process of SWCNTs/BHb composites, were analyzed. The results indicated that the binding with SWCNTs led to changes in the secondary structure of BHb, with the largest structural alteration observed for unseparated SWCNTs, resulting in fluorescence quenching and ɑ-helix loss in BHb. During the oxidation process, the fluorescence intensity of both BHb and SWCNTs at their maximum emission wavelengths increased; Whereas, during the reduction process, the fluorescence intensity of BHb and SWCNTs gradually recovered to the original state. The findings of this study provide insight into monitoring the redox process of hemoglobin.
