Analysis elucidates fumonisin B1-gliadin binding in wheat, suggesting better mycotoxin detection methods.

This research aims to explore the binding mechanism of fumonisin B1 with gliadin to better understand mycotoxin contamination.
Investigated noncovalent interactions between fumonisin B1 and gliadin.
Analyzed binding through static quenching mechanisms.
Characterized changes in protein secondary structure post-binding.
Fumonisin B1 binds to gliadin via hydrogen bonds, forming a stable complex.
Binding leads to increased α-helix and decreased β-sheet content in gliadin.
Binding occurs primarily within a hydrophobic pocket of gliadin.
