Thermal Study of a Newly Synthesized Cu(II) Complex Binding to Bovine β-Lactoglobulin by Adeleh Divsalar, Lyla Barzegar, Gholamreza Rezaei Behbehani

“…The heats of BLG + Cu(II) interactions are reported and analyzed in terms of the extended solvation theory for calculation of binding and thermodynamic parameters of the interaction. The results suggested that binding of Cu(II) complex on BLG resulted in significant changes on the tertiary structure and conformation of protein via increasing of hydrophobicity and inducing partially unfolded structure in BLG which has a good agreement with the solvation parameters recovered by the extended solvation model suggesting destabilization of the protein.…”
