Inhibition of chrysin on xanthine oxidase activity and its inhibition mechanism

TLDR
Analysis of circular dichroism demonstrated that chrysin induced the conformational change of XO with increases in α-helix and β-sheet and reductions in β-turn and random coil structures, and the interaction was predominately driven by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces.
