Abstract | In this study the binding characteristics of mucin to calcium ion was examined by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), FT-Raman, Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), and Dynamic Light Scattering(DLS) methods. The binding site of the interaction between mucin and calcium ions could be confirmed by FT-IR and FT-Raman techniques. When the concentration of Ca(2+) is relatively low, Ca(2+) prefers to coordinate with the carbohydrate moiety of mucins. When the concentration of Ca(2+) is high, Ca(2+) will also interact with the protein moiety of mucins. The morphology and the size Of CaCl(2)-mucin solution could be obtained by TEM and DLS methods, respectively. The hydrodynamic radius of CaCl(2)-mucin mixture decreases compared with pure mucin solution, which may result from that Ca(2+) induces a contraction or folding of mucin chains to forma more compact configuration. The activity of the cations in modifying the structure of mucin may be of great importance for the biological function in normal and disease states. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
