Further characterization of reversal of signs of induced cotton effects of dicumarol derivatives-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein systems by protriptyline.
The interaction of dicumarol derivatives and protriptyline with respect to the binding to alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) has been investigated by circular dichroism (CD), equilibrium dialysis and ultrafiltration. Investigation of the induced CD spectra of dicumarol derivatives bound to AGP indicated that the conformations of these compounds were different when bound to AGP. Though all the dicumarol derivatives, protriptyline and AGP formed a ternary complex, interaction modes were different, depending upon the substituent groups at position 3 of the dicumarol molecule. On the basis of the protriptyline effect on the CD spectra of all dicumarol derivatives bound to AGP, the compounds were classified in the following way: (1) Dicumarol, ethylidenebis 4-hydroxycoumarin and propylidenebis 4-hydroxycoumarin caused reversal of the sign of ellipticity. This interaction was explained by cooperative binding. (2) Butylidenebis 4-hydroxycoumarin and pentylidenebis 4-hydroxycoumarin generated new band and disappeared ellipticity of the original Cotton effect. This interaction was also explained by the cooperative binding mode. (3) Ethylbiscoumacetate which generated the CD band similar to that of dicumarol in the absence of protriptyline, reversed the sign of the CD spectrum only at 325 nm. The interaction was anticooperative in nature. (4) Benzylidenebis 4-hydroxycoumarin represented type four which had no change in the CD spectrum by the addition of protriptyline. This interaction was explained by the two-state model accompanying the conformational change of AGP. These results suggested that all compounds, except for benzylidenebis 4-hydroxycoumarin, induced negative Cotton effects at 325 nm by taking the same asymmetrical perturbation by the addition of protriptyline and the interaction was carried out according to model 2. An attempt to study the interaction mechanism of two or more drugs with regard to the binding to protein using these models is thought to help in understanding drug-protein interactions.
