Indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) is a plant growth regulator with good specificity and long action. IPA may be harmful to human health because of its accumulation in vegetables and fruits. Therefore, in this study, the properties of the interaction between calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) and IPA were systematically explored using multispectroscopic and computational modeling approaches. Analysis of fluorescence spectra showed that IPA binding to ctDNA to spontaneously form a complex was mainly driven by hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interaction. DNA melting analysis, viscosity analysis, DNA cleavage study, and circular dichroism measurement revealed the groove binding of IPA to ctDNA and showed that the binding did not significantly change ctDNA confirmation. Furthermore, molecular docking found that IPA attached in the A-T rich minor groove region of the DNA. Molecular dynamics simulation showed that DNA and IPA formed a stable complex and IPA caused slight fluctuations for the residues at the binding site. Gel electrophoresis experiments showed that IPA did not significantly disrupt the DNA structure. These findings may provide useful information on the potential toxicological effects and environmental risk assessments of IPA residue in food at the molecular level. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
