Interaction of chlorpromazine with myoglobin and hemoglobin: A comparative study
TL;DR: Thermodynamic analysis revealed that binding of CPZ to hemoglobin was exothermic, whereas binding to myoglobin was endothermic with a high entropic contribution, suggesting that CPZ binding toMyoglobin is hydrophobic in nature.

TL;DR: FT-IR spectra and molecular docking results indicated the roles of hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bond for the formation of DIM and β-LG nanocomplexes and suggested that α-LG may be a good vehicle for making a protein-based DIM protection and delivery system.
Abstract: The compound 3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM) has a broad spectrum of anticancer activities. However, low stability and bioavailability limit its application. Elucidating interactions between DIM and β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) may be useful for fabricating whey protein-based protecting systems. Interaction with DIM increased the diameter and absolute zeta potential value of β-LG. UV-absorption spectra suggested that there was a complex of DIM and β-LG. β-LG showed enhanced fluorescence intensity by complexing with DIM with a binding constant of 6.7 × 105 M−1. Upon interaction with DIM, β-LG was decreased in secondary structure content of helix and turn while increased in β-sheet and unordered. FT-IR spectra and molecular docking results indicated the roles of hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bond for the formation of DIM and β-LG nanocomplexes. Data suggested that β-LG may be a good vehicle for making a protein-based DIM protection and delivery system due to the tight binding of DIM to β-LG.

TL;DR: This chapter presents procedures for the isolation of intracellular oxygen-binding proteins of tissues, called “tissue hemoglobins” in the widest sense, which are monomers or dimers having a minimum molecular weight of 18,000 with similar optical spectra and chemical reactivity.
Abstract: Publisher Summary This chapter presents procedures for the isolation of intracellular oxygen-binding proteins of tissues, called “tissue hemoglobins” in the widest sense. All of these, except Ascaris and yeast hemoglobin, are monomers or dimers having a minimum molecular weight of 18,000 with similar optical spectra and chemical reactivity. Strictly, only muscle hemoglobin should be called “myoglobin”; by extension the term is often applied to other tissue hemoglobins as well. Ferric myoglobin may be purified by chromatography on carboxymethyl (CM) cellulose, usually at slightly acid pH or on diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) cellulose. The choice of preparative procedure depends on the use to which the purified myoglobin will be put. Both DEAE and CM ion-exchange columns yield myoglobin that is pure in the sense of being free from contaminating polypeptide chains. Better resolution of forms of myoglobin differing only in charge is achieved on CM-cellulose. Such columns, however, are usually operated at acid pH, and it is a matter of experience that oxymyoglobin exposed to mildly acidic conditions becomes ferric and, in the process, undergoes some minor but apparently irreversible change. The chapter also explains the isolation and purification of vertebrate myoglobins.
