Hydrophobic bonds-dominated key off-odors/silver carp myofibrillar protein interactions, and their binding characteristics at cold storage and oral temperatures.

ABSTRACT: This study revealed the interaction mechanism between silver carp myofibrillar protein (MP) and key off-odors by combining fluorescence spectroscopy with molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Spectroscopic results exhibited a dynamic quenching mechanism between MP and off-odors. Thermodynamic analysis indicated that the MP/off-odors interaction was spontaneous (ΔG° < 0) and dominated by hydrophobic interactions (ΔH° > 0, ΔS° > 0). Meanwhile, the binding affinity was in the order of nonanal (n = 1.38) > hexanal (n = 0.89) > 1-octen-3-ol (n = 0.65), which was further verified by the MD results. Among off-odors, nonanal had the highest binding energy with myosin (8105.66 kJ/mol) and formed more hydrophobic binding sites to Trp residues in myosin head (e.g., Trp820 and Trp822), thereby changing
