The nuclear magnetic quadrupole relaxation enhancement of 35Cl-, 81Br-, and 12I- anions on binding to human serum albumin has been studied under conditions of variable protein and anion concentration and also in the presence of simple inorganic, amphiphilic, and complex anions which compete with the halide ions for the protein anion binding sites. Two classes of anion binding sites with greatly different binding constans were identified. Experiments at variable halide ion concentration were employed to determin the Cl- and I- binding constants. By means of 35 Cl nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) the relative affinity for different anions was determined by competition experiments for both the strong and the weak anion binding sites. Anion binding follows the sequence SO42- smaller than F- smaller than CH3COO- smaller than Ci- smaller Br- smaller than NO3- smaller than I- smaller than ClO4- smaller than SCN- smaller than Pt(CN)42- smaller than Au(CN)2- smaller than CH3(CH2)11OSO3- for the high affinity sites, and the sequence SO42- congruent to F- congruent to Cl- smaller CH3COO- smaller than NO3- smaller than Br- smaller than I- smaller than ClO4- smaller than SCN- for the low affinity sites. These series are nearly identical with the well-known lyotropic series. Consequently, those effects of anions on proteins described by the lyotropic series can be correlated with the affinities of the anions for binding to the protein. The data suggest that the physical nature of the interaction is the same for both types of biding sites, and that the differences in affinity between different binding sites must be explained in terms of tertiary structure. Analogous experiments performed using 127I- quadrupole relaxation gave results very similar to those obtained with 35Cl-. A comparison between the Cl-, Br- and I- ions revealed that, as a result of the increasing affinity for the weak anion binding sites in the series Cl- smaller than Br- smaller than I-, Cl- is much more useful as a probe for the specific anion binding sites than the other two halide ions. The findings with human serum albumin in this and other respects are probably of general relevance in studies of protein-anion interactions. In addition to competition experiments, the magnitude of the relaxation rate is also discussed. Line broadening not related to anion binding to the protein is found to be small. A comparison of transverse and longitudinal 35Cl relaxation rates gives a value for the quadrupole coupling constant of the high affinity sites in good agreement with a calculated coupling constant assuming anion binding to arginine.
