Abstract: Pyrazine is a kind of compound containing pyrazine ring structure, which has attracted the attention of researchers because of its special aroma and healthcare function. It is currently used in spices, pharmaceuticals, food additives, and other industries. Human serum albumin (HSA) is a transport and storage protein in the human circulatory system. Previous research reported that pyrazine can interact with albumin, but the interaction between pyrazine and HSA has not been reported. Consequently, this study is based on the multispectral method and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, exploring the interaction between different pyrazines and HSA. The results show that the four pyrazines mainly quench the endogenous fluorescence of HSA through the static quenching mechanism. Molecular docking indicates that hydrophobic forces play a major role in the binding of pyrazines with HSA. At the same time, synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD), three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy, and resonance light scattering (RLS) showed that each pyrazine compound can change the conformation of HSA. MD simulation results show that the combination of four pyrazines and HSA can enhance the stability of HSA. Among them, 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine (TTMP) and 2,3,5-trimethylpyrazine (TMTP) binding is the most stable and the most unstable combination with HSA, respectively. In addition, the four pyrazines could affect the physiological activity of HSA. This study is of great significance to explore the mechanism of action of pyrazine compounds in vivo and can provide useful information for the application of pyrazine compounds in food.
