Protein glycation and aggregation have a pivotal role in many diseases including diabetes and neurodegenerative disorders. N-acetyl aspartate (NAA), an osmolyte derived from L-aspartic acid, is one of the most abundant metabolites in the mammalian brain. Although NAA is supposed to be a substitute for a neuronal marker, its function is not fully elucidated. Herein, we have investigated the effect of NAA on glycation, AGEs formation and aggregation of irisin. AGE-specific fluorescence showed the strong inhibition of AGEs formation in the presence of NAA, demonstrating its anti-glycating property. The aggregates present in MG-modified irisin were also reduced by NAA, which was confirmed by Thioflavin T fluorescence and fluorescence microscopy. Further, for the explanation of the strong anti-glycating potential of NAA, the interaction between irisin and NAA was also examined. Interaction studies involving steady-state fluorescence and molecular docking demonstrated that hydrogen bonding and salt bridges by NAA stabilize the irisin. It was found that glycation-prone residues i.e., lysine and arginine are specifically involved in the interaction which might prevent them from getting modified during the process of glycation. This study for the first time reported the antiglycating potential of NAA which can be implicated in the therapeutic management of various glycation-related complications.
