Biological target:
PIPES is frequently used as a buffering agent in biochemistry.
In vitro activity:
The incubation of MP (myofibrillar protein) suspensions (20 mg mL-1 in piperazine-N,N'-bis(2-ethanesulfonic acid) buffer, with 0.6 mol L-1 sodium chloride, pH 6.25) at 4 °C for 24 h under an iron-catalyzed hydroxyl radical generating system (Fenton reaction) promoted the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and protein carbonyls, which was attenuated by EC (5, 50, and 100 μmol g-1 protein). Reduced protein sulfhydryl content, tryptophan fluorescence, protein solubility, as well as increased surface hydrophobicity were found by the co-incubation of EC. Analysis by scanning electron microscopy revealed increased protein aggregation and fragments in oxidized MP, which were further enhanced by the addition of EC. However, the protein digestibility of MP was not affected. Reference: J Sci Food Agric. 2021 Jan 30;101(2):746-753. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32706121/
In vivo activity:
This study found that piperazine-N,N'-bis(ethanesulfonic acid) (PIPES) and 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), two zwitterionic buffers commonly used in tissue fixation, can cause severe lumen and cell morphological defects in Drosophila pupal and adult retina; the inter-rhabdomeral lumen becomes dilated and the photoreceptor cells are significantly reduced in size. Correspondingly, the localization pattern of Eyes shut (EYS), a luminal protein, is severely altered. In contrast, tissues fixed in the phosphate buffered saline (PBS) buffer results in lumen and cell morphologies that are consistent with live imaging.
