Methods Surface plasma resonance, circular dichroism and fluorescence experiments were conducted. Results ( 1 ) the binding ability was decreased along with the increase of pH; (2) Zn^2+and Ni^2+ enhanced the interaction between PS-ODN and HSA; (3) Upon PS-ODN binding, the conformation of HSA was changed with an increase of β - sheet. Conclusion The results provide experimental evidences to the hypothesis that PS-ODN binds with HSA in the positive potential region, and histidine residues located in the region play a crucial rule in the interaction.展开更多
