Summary: The research revealed that BPQDs quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of trypsin via static fluorescence quenching mode, and bound with trypsin through van der Waal interaction and hydrophobic interaction, resulting in conformational changes and inhibition of trypsin activity. This inhibition was achieved through non-competitive manner at the allosteric site of trypsin, leading to efficient suppression of trypsin's digestion activity on various cells.

Summary: This study investigated the interaction between biochar dissolved organic matter (BDOM) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) using fluorescence spectroscopy and multiple models. The results showed that protein- and fulvic-like components were the major interacting materials with TCP in BDOM. The static quenching mechanism dominated the interaction between BDOM and TCP, and the binding order of fluorescent components followed the sequence of protein-like -> short-wavelength fulvic-like -> long-wavelength fulvic-like -> humic-like components. These findings provide insights for selecting biochar as a remediation material for chlorophenols and understanding the environmental behavior of leached dissolved organic matter during biochar application.

Summary: Classical molecular dynamics simulation is a powerful tool in computational chemistry, but accurate force fields are crucial for studying complex enzymatic systems. In this study, six force fields were tested on a serine triad protease trypsin complex, with diverging results. The best performing force fields were recommended for use in similar systems, and it is suggested to carefully consider force field choice in computational enzymology studies.

Summary: Single molecule fluorescence tracking offers nanometer-scale and millisecond-temporal resolution insights into dynamics and interaction of individual molecules in a biological environment, but faces limitations in quantitatively characterizing interactions between indistinguishable molecules. A theoretical foundation for spectroscopy of interaction times is developed to infer interactions from imaging data, highlighting a non-trivial crossover between power law and exponential behavior in the distribution of interaction times, depending on microscopic reaction affinity. Validation is done with simulated and experimental datasets.

Summary: Microplastics (MPs) undergo aging in the environment, affecting their physicochemical properties and interactions with biomacromolecules. This study investigated the structural and functional changes of catalase (CAT) induced by virgin and aged PVC-MPs. Results showed that light irradiation aged the PVC-MPs, leading to surface roughness and the presence of holes and pits. Aged MPs had more binding sites than virgin MPs, and they quenched the fluorescence of CAT and interacted with tryptophane and tyrosine residues. The interaction of CAT with aged MPs caused structural changes and dispersion of CAT. However, MPs had no effects on the heme groups and activity of CAT. This study highlights the potential negative effects of MPs on antioxidant enzymes and provides insights into the interaction mechanisms between MPs and biomacromolecules.

Summary: In this study, the tryptic proteolysis of protein micelles was investigated using beta-casein as a model. The hydrolysis of specific peptide bonds in beta-casein resulted in the degradation and rearrangement of the original micelles, leading to the formation of new nanoparticles. The changes in the secondary structure and hydrolysis products during proteolysis were examined using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. A simple kinetic model with three successive stages was proposed to predict the rearrangement of nanoparticles and the formation of proteolysis products, as well as changes in the secondary structure at different enzyme concentrations. The model predictions agreed well with the experimental results.

Summary: It has been found that cationic, amphiphilic antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can form co-assemblies with anionic, aromatic small molecules (SM), modulating their activity. Microscale thermophoresis (MST) was used to investigate the interaction between four selected AMPs and four selected SMs, revealing various scenarios of thermophoretic behaviors and contributing to understanding the factors driving their interaction. The results demonstrate that the MST method is suitable for identifying and studying peptidic assemblies and can be expanded to highly charged compound interaction systems.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of Amoxicillin on the conformation and structural stability of whey protein beta-lactoglobulin. The results showed that Amoxicillin effectively bound to beta-lactoglobulin, forming a stable complex. The binding process was dominated by van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds. The complexation also altered the conformation and enhanced the thermal stability of beta-lactoglobulin. Molecular docking and simulation confirmed the stability of the complex. These findings provide insights into the potential of beta-lactoglobulin as a carrier for harmful substances, opening up new avenues for food security research.

BB-80 causes pathological changes in the thyroid, while OH-BB-80 increases thyroid hormone content. After discontinued exposure, both BB-80 and OH-BB-80 downregulate thyroid-related genes, but the whole-body thyroid hormone levels fail to fully recover.

Summary: This study reveals the mechanism by which 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) activates the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and promotes bladder cancer (BC) cell invasion and metastasis through the upregulation of certain genes. The exposure to MBT at environmentally relevant concentrations disrupts AhR signaling, causes transcriptome aberration, and induces malignant cell metastasis, increasing the risk of BC. Additionally, a machine learning model is developed to accurately predict MBT analogues.

Summary: Bisphenols at environmentally-relevant concentrations can induce abnormal angiogenesis through disruption of different nuclear receptor-mediated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathways. Bisphenol A (BPA) and bisphenol S (BPS) promote angiogenesis, while tetrabromobisphenol S (TBBPS) inhibits angiogenesis. The different effects are attributed to their distinct interactions with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and thyroid receptor (TR) or estrogen receptor (ER).

Summary: In this study, it was found that black phosphorus nanomaterials have adverse effects on vasculature, with BPNSs being more likely to cause endothelial dysfunction and platelet adhesion. The impact on eNOS also differs between BPQDs and BPNSs. Although there was no significant structural damage in the mouse aortas, both BPQDs and BPNSs triggered aberrations in the aortic transcriptome, involving vasoconstriction abnormalities, metabolic disturbances, and immune perturbations.

This study investigates the transfer and impacts of polystyrene microplastics in an estuarine food chain. The results show that microplastics can be transferred through the food chain, although the transfer rates are low. The exposed organisms exhibit stress responses, suggesting the potential risk of microplastics reaching humans through the food chain.
