A tethered bilayer lipid membrane (tBLM) was fabricated on a gold electrode using 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-phosphothioethanol as a tethering lipid and the membrane fractions of Saccharomyces pombe yeast cells to deposit the upper leaflet. The membrane fractions were characterized using transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering and found to be similar in size to small unilamellar vesicles of synthetic lipids. The dynamics of membrane-fraction deposition and rupture on the tethering-lipid layer were measured using quartz crystal microgravimetry. The electrochemical properties of the resulting tBLM were characterized using electrical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The tBLM's electrical resistance was greater than 1 MOmegacm(2), suggesting a defect-free membrane. The suitability of tBLM produced using membrane fractions for measuring ion-channel activities was shown by a decrease in membrane resistance from 1.6 to 0.43 MOmegacm(2) following addition of gramicidin. The use of membrane fractions to form high-quality tBLM on gold electrodes suggests a new approach to characterize membrane proteins, in which the upper leaflet of the tBLM is deposited, and overexpressed membrane proteins are incorporated, in a single step. This approach would be especially useful for proteins whose activity is lost or altered during extraction, purification, and reconstitution, or whose activities are strongly influenced by the lipid composition of the bilayer.  相似文献

In this work, an electrochemical DNA biosensor, based on a dual signal amplified strategy by employing a polyaniline film and gold nanoparticles as a sensor platform and enzyme‐linked as a label, for sensitive detection is presented. Firstly, polyaniline film and gold nanoparticles were progressively grown on graphite screen‐printed electrode surface via electropolymerization and electrochemical deposition, respectively. The sensor was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry and impedance measurements. The polyaniline‐gold nanocomposite modified electrodes were firstly modified with a mixed monolayer of a 17‐mer thiol‐tethered DNA probe and a spacer thiol, 6‐mercapto‐1‐hexanol (MCH). An enzyme‐amplified detection scheme, based on the coupling of a streptavidin‐alkaline phosphatase conjugate and biotinylated target sequences was then applied. The enzyme catalyzed the hydrolysis of the electroinactive α‐naphthyl phosphate to α‐naphthol; this product is electroactive and has been detected by means of differential pulse voltammetry. In this way, the sensor coupled the unique electrical properties of polyaniline and gold nanoparticles (high surface area, fast heterogeneous electron transfer, chemical stability, and ease of miniaturisation) and enzymatic amplification. A linear response was obtained over a concentration range (0.2–10 nM). A detection limit of 0.1 nM was achieved.  相似文献

A novel electrochemical assay for DNA ligase activity is described. The assay exploits the properties of DNA hairpins tethered at one terminus to a gold electrode and labelled at the other with a ferrocene group for rapid characterisation of DNA status by cyclic voltammetry. Successful ligation of 'nicked' DNA hairpins is indicated by retention of the ferrocene couple when exposure to DNA ligase is followed by conditions that denature the hairpin. The results demonstrate the simplicity of integrating electrochemical detection with hairpin based biosensors and illustrate a new approach to the assay of DNA ligases, of which the NAD(+)-dependent enzymes represent a potential broad spectrum antibacterial drug target.  相似文献

A novel concept is introduced for the oriented incorporation of membrane proteins into solid supported lipid bilayers. Recombinant cytochrome c oxidase solubilized in detergent was immobilized on a chemically modified gold surface via the affinity of its histidine-tag to a nickel-chelating nitrilo-triacetic acid (NTA) surface. The oriented protein monolayer was reconstituted into the lipid environment by detergent substitution. The individual steps of the surface modification, including (1) chemical modification of the gold support, (2) adsorption of the protein, and (3) reconstitution of the lipid bilayer, were followed in situ by means of surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) and accompanied by normal-mode analysis. The high surface sensitivity of SEIRAS allows for the identification of each chemical reaction process within the monolayer at the molecular level. Finally, full functionality of the surface-tethered cytochrome c oxidase was demonstrated by cyclic voltammetry after binding of the natural electron donor cytochrome c.  相似文献

The first self-assembly of a C60 pi-extended tetrathiafulvalene (exTTF) dyad on a gold surface is reported. Four fullerene derivatives, two of them containing p-quinonoid pi-extended tetrathiafulvalenes (exTTFs), have been synthesized, and their solution electrochemistry has been investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry. Fullerene-containing SAMs of thioctic acid derivatives 3 and 6 have also been investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The cyclic voltammograms of both compounds exhibit three reversible reduction waves, and for compound 6, one irreversible oxidation process corresponding to the oxidation of the exTTF subunit is observed. Stable self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of fullerene derivative 3 were formed on gold surfaces, whereas dyad 6 does not present a very clear electrochemical response, most probably as a result of structural rearrangements on the monolayer or charge transfer between the C60 and exTTF moieties.  相似文献

Thin films of polymers tethered with both atrazine haptens and ferrocenyl (Fc) probes were formed on polycrystalline gold electrodes by taking advantage of the facile formation of self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) of thiolates. These films were characterized by polarization modulation Fourier transform infrared reflection–absorption spectrometry (PM‐IRRAS), X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and cyclic voltammetry. The combination of these techniques gave a full insight into the structure and the binding mode of the polymers and provided useful quantitative information about both Fc entity and atrazine hapten surface density. This may open the way to a new type of immunosensor for atrazine monitoring.  相似文献

The black lipid membranes (BLMs) are artificial membrane systems that have been widely used in the study of different biological processes. In this paper the planar bilayer lipid membranes have been used to study the behavior of thiolipid molecules-dipalmitoyl-phosphatidyl-ethanolamine-mercaptopropionamide (DPPE-MPA) and cholesteryl 3-mercaptopropionate (Chs-MPA)-as compared to classical BLM made of natural lipids. We present our experiments on black thiolipid bilayer (BTM) formation from a thiolipid solution and basic results of pump currents generated by sodium-potassium pump-Na(+),K(+)-ATP-ase-introduced to such bilayer systems via proteoliposome adsorption with subsequent fusion. Our results imply that no substantial difference exists between BLMs formed from classical lipids and those made from thiolipids used in this study. The same thiolipid molecules were subsequently used for the formation of covalently bound, tethered bilayer lipid membranes (t-BLMs) on polycrystalline gold electrodes. Similarly, as in the case of BLMs, we took advantage of proteoliposome adsorption/fusion to obtain a t-BLM system with reconstituted enzyme. The vesicle fusion on hydrophobic or hydrophilic substrates is one of the main ways to obtain a bilayer system with incorporated biological species. In this paper we present also our preliminary results of electrochemical experiments using rapid solution exchange technique on such t-BLMs systems and their comparison with painted solid supported membranes (SSMs) and BLMs. We have also followed the process of vesicles fusion onto thiolipid monolayer by means of in situ atomic force microscopy in tapping mode (TM-AFM). On the basis of these experiments, we conclude that DPPE-MPA and Chs-MPA molecules used in our experiments preserve lipid properties, allowing for at least partial reconstitution of Na(+),K(+)-ATP-ase into such t-BLMs. On the other hand, the relatively compact organization on polycrystalline gold and the hydrophobic nature of the first monolayer of tethered thiolipids slows down the proteoliposome fusion onto such monolayers and consequently hinders the protein insertion. However, this effect can be overcome by mechanical stimulus that facilitates proteoliposome delamination onto the self-assembled monolayer.  相似文献

Homogeneous chitosan films of various thicknesses (10-65 nm) were deposited on thin gold films through spin coating. The resulting interfaces were characterized using surface plasmon resonance (SPR), AFM, profilometry and cyclic voltammetry. The strong chelating properties of chitosan films to Fe(3+) were investigated using cyclic voltammetry. Through SPR measurements, an affinity constant between chitosan and Fe(3+) of 9.49 x 10(5) M(-1) was determined with a detection limit as low as 250 ppb.  相似文献

In this paper the phenomenon of inorganic substances deposited onto the bilayer lipid membrane is described. Metallic copper and semiconducting compounds such as CuS, FeS, CdS and also AgBr were deposited onto the bilayer lipid membrane. The cyclic voltammetry technique was used for determining electrochemical and photoelectrical properties of coated membranes. Considerable increase of stability and drastic changes of membrane properties were observed. Also investigated were the photoelectrical properties of bilayer lipid membrane with dispersed CdSe or AgBr particles in the absence and presence of pigments.  相似文献

Tethered bilayer lipid membranes are stable solid supported model membrane systems. They can be used to investigate the incorporation and function of membrane proteins. In order to study ion translocation mediated via incorporated proteins, insulating membranes are necessary. The architecture of the membrane can have an important effect on both the electrical properties of the lipid bilayer as well as on the possibility to functionally host proteins. Alpha-hemolysin pores have been functionally incorporated into a tethered bilayer lipid membrane coupled to a gold electrode. The protein incorporation has been monitored optically and electrically and the influence of the molecular structure of the anchor lipids on the insertion properties has been investigated.  相似文献

An electrode surface is presented that enables the characterization of redox-active membrane enzymes in a native-like environment. An ubiquinol oxidase from Escherichia coli, cytochrome bo(3) (cbo(3)), has been co-immobilized into tethered bilayer lipid membranes (tBLMs). The tBLM is formed on gold surfaces functionalized with cholesterol tethers which insert into the lower leaflet of the membrane. The planar membrane architecture is formed by self-assembly of proteoliposomes, and its structure is characterized by surface plasmon resonance (SPR), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (TM-AFM). The functionality of cbo(3) is investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and is confirmed by the catalytic reduction of oxygen. Interfacial electron transfer to cbo(3) is mediated by the membrane-localized ubiquinol-8, the physiological electron donor of cbo(3). Enzyme coverages observed with TM-AFM and CV coincide (2-8.5 fmol.cm(-)(2)), indicating that most-if not all-cbo(3) on the surface is catalytically active and thus retains its integrity during immobilization.  相似文献

In this paper we demonstrate the use of polyaniline/gold modified electrodes that are to be used as the anode for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC). The objective of this work was to enhance the performance and viability of DMFCs by developing a more efficient catalyst for the oxidation of methanol. Polyaniline films with angstrom scale atomic gold clusters were used as an electroactive catalyst. These gold clusters are significantly different than what is traditionally used as they are composed of only a handful of atoms (1–10 atoms) and have unique physical and chemical properties. The PANI/Au modified electrodes are a new and promising catalyst for direct methanol fuel cells and can replace existing commercial catalysts. In this study, we illustrate how atomic clusters of gold incorporated in the conducting polymer polyaniline enhanced the oxidation signal of methanol exhibited by cyclic voltammetry.  相似文献

Electrochemical activity of dendrimer-stabilized gold nanoparticles on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was studied by means of cyclic voltammetry of sodium hypochlorite. Dendrimer-stabilized gold nanoparticles were deposited onto a glassy carbon surface by electrophoresis and the deposition was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Both anodic and cathodic peak currents were found to increase after the deposition of dendrimer-stabilized gold nanoparticles. In the case of dendrimers deposited onto the GCE surface, the magnitude of the current was smaller than for dendrimer-stabilized-gold-nanoparticle-modified GCE. This indicates the enhancement in the rate of electrolysis due to gold nanoparticles.  相似文献

An efficient and inexpensive eight gold electrode array has been manufactured by a combination of screen printing and gold electrodeposition techniques. Gold electrodeposition was performed in potentiostatic and galvanostatic conditions. Different treatments, involving temperature and polishing control, led to electrodes with different roughness. The electrochemical behavior of the generated gold surface was studied by cyclic voltammetry showing the characteristic response of polycrystalline gold, in contrast with disposable gold electrodes fabricated by screen printing from gold inks. The electrodes were chemically modified through the adsorption of alkanethiols self‐assembled monolayers and the coupling of a model protein. Both reactions were followed by cyclic voltammetry and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). The electrodes have shown high reproducibility in their electrochemical behavior as well as in their modifications.  相似文献

Dithiols of N-hexadecyl-3,6-di(p-mercaptophenylacetylene)carbazole (HDMC) have been synthesized and employed to form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold. One characteristic of the HDMC molecule is its peculiar molecular structure consisting of a large and rigid headgroup and a small and flexible alkyl-chain tail. HDMC adsorbates can attach to gold substrates by a strong Au-S bond with weak van der Waals interactions between the alkyl-chain tails, leading to a loosely packed hydrophobic SAM. In this way we can couple hybrid bilayer membranes (HBMs) to gold surfaces with more likeness to a cell bilayer than the conventional HBMs based on densely packed long-chain alkanethiol SAMs. The insulating properties and stability of the HDMC monolayer as well as the HDMC/lipid bilayer on gold have been investigated by electrochemical techniques including cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy. To test whether the quality of the bilayer is sufficiently high for biomimetic research, we incorporated the pore-forming protein alpha-hemolysin) and the horseradish peroxidase into the bilayers, respectively. Experimental results demonstrated that this type of loosely packed hydrophobic SAM has great potential in biomimetic bilayer research and biosensor application.  相似文献

In this paper cyclic voltammetry was used for the synthesis of linear array spherical gold nanoparticles on the surface of glassy carbon electrode using methionine as a stable reagent. The methionine-gold nanoparticles on the surface of glassy electrode were obtained. The methionine-gold nanoparticles were characterized by cyclic voltammetry, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry and powder X-ray diffraction. Electrochemical behavior of methionine at methionine-gold nanoparticle modified electrode was investigated. It was demonstrated that the methionine-gold nanoparticles can catalyze electrochemical transformations of methionine.  相似文献
