Herein, we report a versatile surface chemistry methodology to covalently immobilize ligands and proteins to self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold electrode. The strategy is based on two steps: 1) the coupling of soluble azido‐PEG‐amimo ligand with an alkynyl‐terminated monolayer via click reaction and 2) covalent immobilization hemoglobin (Hb) to the amine‐terminated ligand via carbodiimide reaction. Surface‐enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy (SERS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIR) and cyclic voltammetry are used to characterize the model interfacial reactions. We also demonstrate the excellent biocompatibility of the interface for Hb immobilization and reliable application of the proposed method for H2O2 biosensing. Moreover, the redox thermodynamics of the Fe3+/Fe2+ couple in Hb is also investigated. 相似文献

Polyhedral oligomeric silsequioxane (POSS), having eight hydroxyl groups for the preparation of nanocomposites with polyimide (PI) was synthesized by the direct hydrosilylation of allyl alcohol with octasilsesquioxane (Q8M8H) with platinum divinyltetramethyl disiloxane Pt(dvs) as a catalyst. The structure of allyl alcohol terminated‐POSS (POSS‐OH) was confirmed by FTIR, NMR, and XRD. A high performance, low‐k PI nanocomposite from pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA)‐4,4'‐oxydianiline (ODA) polyamic acid cured with POSS‐OH was also successfully synthesized. The incorporation of POSS‐OH into PI matrix reduced dielectric constant of PI without loosing mechanical properties. Furthermore, the effects of POSS‐OH on the morphology and properties of the PI/POSS‐OH nanocomposites were investigated using UV–vis, FTIR, XRD, SEM, AFM, transmission electron microscope (TEM), TGA, and contact angle. The homogeneous dispersion of POSS particles was confirmed by SEM, AFM, and TEM. The nanoindentation showed that the modulus increased upon increasing the concentration of POSS‐OH in PI, whereas the hardness did not increase very much with respect to loading of POSS, due to soft‐interphase around POSS molecules in the resulting nanocomposites. Overall results demonstrated the nanometer‐level integration of the polymer and POSS‐OH. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 5887–5896, 2008 相似文献

Langmuir films of 4‐{[4‐({4‐[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]phenyl}ethynyl)phenyl]ethynyl} benzenaminium chloride ([ 1 H ]Cl) undergo anion metathesis when assembled on an aqueous auric acid (HAuCl4) subphase. Subsequent transfer to solid supports gives well‐formed Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) monolayers of [ 1 H ]AuCl4 in which the trimethylsilyl group serves as the surface contacting group. Photoreduction of the aurate on these monolayers leads to the formation of metallic gold nanoislands, which were distributed over the surface of the film. Electrical properties of these nascent devices were determined by recording current–voltage (I–V) curves with conductive atomic force microscopy (c‐AFM) using the PeakForce tunneling AFM (PF‐TUNA) mode. This gives consistent sigmoidal I–V curves that are indicative of well‐behaved junctions free of metallic filaments and short circuits. The photoreduction of a metal precursor incorporated onto monomolecular films is therefore proposed as an effective method for the fabrication of molecular junctions. 相似文献

Triaryltriazoles are of interest in iron(II) complexes designed to study spin‐crossover properties. In this study, three new asymmetrical substituted triaryltriazoles, 3‐(p‐R‐phenyl)‐4‐(p‐chlorophenyl)‐5‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1,2,4‐triazoles (R = OCH3, 5a ; Cl, 5b ; Br, 5c ), were successfully synthesized from 2‐picolinic acid by a three‐step reaction through an intermediate N‐(p‐R‐phenylcarbonyl)‐N′‐(2‐pyridylcarbonyl)hydrazine ( 4a–4c ). Yield of 5a–5c is in the range from 74 to 87%. The compounds 5a–5c were characterized by UV, FTIR, 1H‐NMR, electrospray ionization mass spectrum spectra, and elemental analysis. Additionally, the absolute configurations of 5a–5c were determined by single crystal X‐ray crystallography. 相似文献

The organization of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) within reconstituted purple membranes (RPM) was examined using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Five reconstituted species were examined: RPM 3 (bR/native polar lipids/dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) in a 1:9:14 molar ratio), RPM 4 (bR/native polar lipids in a 1:7 molar ratio), RPM 5 (bR/native polar lipids/1,2-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycerol in a 1:3.5:6.1 molar ratio), RPM 6 (bR/native polar lipids/1,2-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine in a 1:3.5:4.9 molar ratio), and RPM 7 (bR/native polar lipids/1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-[phospho-l-serine] in a 1:3.5:4.6 molar ratio). RPM 3 patches adsorbed onto mica exhibit domains of crystallized bR trimers arranged in a hexagonal packing structure, similar to those found in native purple membrane (NPM). These domains are enclosed by DMPC-rich regions. RPM 4 patches were observed to have larger domains of crystallized bR, with trimer orientation 30° different from that found in NPM. The bR-rich domains are enclosed by a large, protein-free, lipid-rich region. The topography of RPM 5 was difficult to resolve as the surface had no discernable patterns or structure. The topographies of RPM 6 and 7 were similar to that found in RPM 3 in that higher domains were formed within the patch adsorbed onto mica. They may contain protein-rich regions, but clear images of protein arrangement could not be obtained using AFM. This may be a result of imaging limitations or of the lack of organization of bR within these domains. 相似文献

We have designed and synthesis a new compound of zinc‐porphyrin bearing four pyrene groups (ZnP‐t‐P(py)4) and prepared a new hybrid materials of ZnP‐t‐P(py)4 with graphene oxide (GO) via non‐covalent interactions. The ZnP‐t‐P(py)4, along with four pendant pyrene entities ZnP‐t‐P(py)4, stacking on the (GO) surface due to π‐ π interactions, has been revealed by AFM measurements. FTIR, UV‐vis absorption confirm the non‐covalent functionalization of the GO. Raman spectral measurements revealed the electronic structure of the GO to be intact upon hybrid formation. In this donor‐acceptor nanohybrid, the fluorescence of photoexcited ZnP‐t‐P(py)4 is effectively quenched by a possible electron‐transfer process. The fluorescence and photoelectrical response measurements also showed that this hybrid may act as an efficient photoelectric conversion material for optoelectronic applications. 相似文献

Mixed two‐component monolayers on glassy carbon are prepared by electrochemical oxidation of N‐(2‐aminoethyl)acetamide and mono‐N‐Boc‐hexamethylenediamine in mixed solution. Subsequent N‐deprotection, amide coupling and solid‐phase synthetic steps lead to electrode‐surface functionalisation with maleimide, with controlled partial coverage of this cysteine‐binding group at appropriate dilution for covalent immobilisation of a model redox‐active protein, cytochrome c, with high coverage (≈7.5 pmol cm?2). 相似文献

A covalently linked ultrathin multilayer film was fabricated from 2‐nitro‐N‐methyl‐diphenylamine‐4‐diazonium‐formaldehyde resin (NDR) and phenol‐formaldehyde resin (PR) in methanol in‐situ. The UV‐vis, XRD, AFM and FTIR show that this multilayer is of high regularity, smoothness and stability. 相似文献

Novel photosensitive azopolymer brushes were synthesized via surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization using initiator self‐assembled on Au surface. The chemical structures of azobenzene derivatives were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The surface morphology of azopolymers via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) for different time was investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Additionally, the photoisomerization of azopolymer was measured by ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy (UV‐Vis). The results indicate that such azopolymers can undergo trans‐cis‐trans photoisomerization efficiently by photo‐irradiation with UV light. Furthermore, this photoisomerization property could also induce the reversible adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption on azopolymer brush surfaces. This adsorption kinetics of the reversible process can be measured by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy in situ. It suggests that the protein biochips could be regenerated safely by UV irradiation rather than by being rinsed with chemical reagents. 相似文献

Interfacing functional proteins with solid supports for device applications is a promising route to possible applications in bio-electronics, -sensors, and -optics. Various possible applications of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) have been explored and reviewed since the discovery of bR. This tutorial review discusses bR as a medium for biomolecular optoelectronics, emphasizing ways in which it can be interfaced, especially as a thin film, solid-state current-carrying electronic element. 相似文献

Small carbon nano‐onions (CNOs, 6–8 shells) were prepared in high yield and functionalized with carboxylic groups by chemical oxidation. After functionalization these nanostructures were soluble in aqueous solutions. 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐5‐(3‐carboxymethoxyphenyl)‐2‐(4‐sulfophenyl)‐2 tetrazolium (MTS) tests showed excellent cytocompatibility of all CNOs analyzed at 30 and 300 μg mL?1, so these carbon nanostructures can be safely used for biological applications. The first covalent functionalization of oxidized CNOs (ox‐CNOs) with biomolecules, by using biotin–avidin interactions is reported here. Multilayers were prepared on a gold surface by layer‐by‐layer assembly and the process was monitored by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Covalent binding of molecules to the short amine‐terminated organosulfur monolayers was assessed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy using total attenuated reflactance mode (FT‐IR/HATR). 相似文献

Structural changes in bacteriorhodopsin (bR) in two different processes of retinal reconstitutions were investigated by observing the 13C and 15N solid‐state NMR spectra of [1‐13C]Val‐ and [15N]Pro‐labeled bR. We found that NMR signals of the BC loop were sensitive to changes in protein structure and dynamics, from wild‐type (WT) bR to bacterio‐opsin (bO), regenerated bR and E1001 bR. Regenerated bR was prepared following the addition of retinal into bO obtained from photobleached WT‐bR. E1001 bR was cultured from a retinal‐deficient strain termed E1001 following the addition of retinal to growing cells. 15N NMR signal at Pro70 in the BC loop in WT‐bR was observed at 122.4 p.p.m., whereas signals were not apparent or partly suppressed in bO and regenerated bR, respectively. Similarly, the 13C NMR signal at Val69 in the BC loop at 172.0 p.p.m. that was observed in WT‐bR was significantly decreased in both regenerated bR and bO. These results suggest that the dynamic structure of the BC loop in bO was substantially altered following the removal of retinal. As a consequence, the correct protein structure failed to be recovered via the regenerating process of retinal to bO. On the other hand, 13C and 15N NMR signals at the BC loop in E1001 bR appeared at positions identical to those of WT‐bR. The results of the current study indicate that the BC loop may not always fold correctly in the regenerated bR, which leads to different properties in the regenerated bR compared to that of WT‐bR. 相似文献

Strategies to prepare and characterize native membrane proteins and protein membranes by AFM 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Progress in characterizing native membrane proteins and protein membranes by atomic force microscopy (AFM) opens exciting possibilities. While the structure, oligomeric state and supramolecular assembly of membrane proteins are assessed directly by AFM, single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) identifies interactions that stabilize the fold, and characterize the switching between functional states of membrane proteins. But what is next? How can we approach cell biological, pharmaceutical and medical questions associated with native cellular membranes? How can we probe the functional state of cell membranes and study the dynamic formation of compartments? Such questions have been addressed by immobilizing membranes on solid supports, which ensures the integrity of the native state of membrane proteins but does not necessarily provide a native-like environment. Direct attachment of membranes to solid supports involves non-specific interactions that may change the physical state of supported lipids and proteins possibly hindering the assembly of membrane proteins into native functional compartments. Thus, to observe the dynamic assembly and working of proteins in native membranes by AFM, supports are required that mimic the native environment of the cell membrane as closely as possible. This review reports on recent progress in characterizing native membrane proteins by AFM, and surveys conventional and new approaches of supporting surfaces, which will allow the function, dynamics, and assembly of membrane proteins to be studied by AFM in native cell membranes. 相似文献

In this study, an equimolar mixture of oxanorbornenyl‐anthracene (ONB‐anthracene), oxanorbornenyl‐bromide (ONB‐Br), and oxanorbornenyl tosylate (ONB‐OTs) was polymerized via ring opening metathesis polymerization using the first generation Grubbs' catalyst in CH2Cl2 at room temperature to form poly(ONB‐anthracene‐co‐ONB‐Br‐co‐ONB‐OTs)10 copolymer as a main backbone. Next, this main backbone was sequentially clicked with a furan protected maleimide‐terminated poly(methyl methacrylate), 2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐1‐piperidinyloxy‐terminated poly(ethylene glycol), and alkyne‐terminated poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL20‐alkyne) via Diels–Alder, nitroxide radical coupling, and copper‐catalyzed azide‐alkyne cycloaddition, respectively, to yield a poly(ONB‐g‐PMMA‐co‐ONB‐g‐PEG‐co‐ONB‐g‐PCL)10 heterograft brush copolymer © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The covalent immobilization of a commercial preparation of cellulase on a reversibly soluble–insoluble enteric polymer Eudragit
S-100 by carbodiimide coupling was carried out. The characteristics of covalent Eudragit cellulase were evaluated using Fourier
transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, circular dichroism (CD) spectra, and fluorescence spectra. FTIR, CD, and fluorescence measurements
also revealed that the cellulases were covalently bonded to the supports. Covalent Eudragit cellulase had binding efficiency
of 81.08% which was higher than the noncovalent Eudragit cellulase 56.83%. The relative activity of the native cellulase and
covalent Eudragit cellulase increased and reached the maximum (at pH 5.0, 50°C) and then decreased with further increases
in pH and temperature. The covalent Eudragit cellulase shows higher stability especially at higher pH and temperature. The
K
m value of covalent Eudragit cellulase (4.78 g·L−1) was decreased compared to that of the native cellulase (2.89 g·L−1). The affinity of the cellulase to its substrate was increased when it was immobilized on Eudragit S-100. 相似文献

ISOMER COMPOSITION and SPECTRA OF THE DARK and LIGHT ADAPTED FORMS OF ARTIFICIAL BACTERIORHODOPSINS*
Abstract– The isomer composition and spectral properties of 15 artificial bacteriorhodopsin (bR) pigments, based on a series of retinal analogs with polyene residue modified below C9 are determined for both dark-adapted (DA) and light-adapted (LA) forms. Similarly to native bR, in all cases only two isomers, C13=C14cis (13-cis) and M-trans, are observed. However, the artificial DA pigments have a lower 13-d.s content than native DA bR (? 66%) while the corresponding LA pigments have a much higher 13-cis content (11-69%) than native LA bR (<2%). Thus, in variance with the native pigment, in all of the artificial systems light also induced the reversed all-trans13-cis process. The data are accounted for in terms of specific steric interactions between the polyene and the protein binding site which allow a (C15-anti)(Cls-syn) isomerization during the photocycle of the artificial pigments, but not in the case of native bR. This accounts for the high proton pumping efficiency of the natural pigment. The nature of a highly red shifted light-adapted form of two of the artificial pigments is investigated and discussed. It is also shown that, in variance with native bR, several artificial pigments exhibit identical absorption spectra for their 13-cis and all-trans isomers. It is concluded that the spectral data for the above species of artificial pigments do not lead to a clear molecular model for the origin of the spectral shift between 13-cis and all-trans bR. 相似文献

We designed a trifunctional initiator ( 3 ) containing anthracene, bromide, and OH functionalities and subsequently used as an initiator in atom transfer radical Polymerization (ATRP) of styrene to yield linear polystyrene (PS) with α‐anthracene, OH, and ω‐bromide terminal groups, of which bromide is later transformed into azide to result in the linear anthracene‐, OH‐, and azide‐terminated PS (l‐α‐anthracene‐OH‐ω‐azide‐PS). The copper‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction between l‐α‐anthracene‐OH‐ω‐azide‐PS and α‐furan‐protected‐maleimide‐ω‐alkyne linkage, 4 afforded the linear anthracene‐, OH‐, and maleimide‐terminated PS. The cyclization via intramolecular Diels–Alder click reaction of this linear PS and the subsequent conversion of the hydroxyl into bromide resulted in the cyclic PS with one bromide located on the ring, (c‐PS)‐Br. Finally, the c‐PS‐Br was clicked with either well‐defined tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl‐terminated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) or poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) yielding the tadpole polymer, (c‐PS)‐b‐PEG or (c‐PS)‐b‐PCL. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This paper demonstrates the direct electron transfer between the heme moiety of horse hearth cytochrome c and a pyridinyl group on self‐assembled‐monolayer‐modified Si(100) electrodes. Self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) containing the putative receptor ligand were prepared by a step‐wise procedure using “click” reactions of acetylene‐terminated alkyl monolayers and isonicotinic acid azide derivatives. Unoxidized Si(100) electrodes, possessing either isonicotinate or isonicotinamide receptor ligands, were characterized using X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, contact‐angle goniometry, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The ability of isonicotinic acid terminated layers to coordinatively bind the redox center of cytochrome c was found to be restricted to pyridinyl assemblies with a para‐ester linkage present. The protocol detailed here offers an experimentally simple modular approach to producing chemically well‐defined SAMs on silicon surfaces for direct electrochemistry of a well‐studied model redox protein. 相似文献

Bacteriorhodopsin (bR), a light-driven proton pump, consists of a bundle of seven membrane-spanning alpha-helices connected to each other by short extramembranous loops. Previously it has been shown that bR can be reconstituted from three fragments corresponding to the first helix, the second helix, and the remaining five helices, and that this reconstituted material reforms the native structure of bR. In this study, it is shown that the native function is also recovered. Low-temperature spectroscopy was used to examine the photochemical properties of bR reconstituted from three fragments. At room temperature at pH 6, the reconstituted material shows essentially the same absorption spectrum as native bR, while upon raising the pH at room temperature or cooling the sample in glycerol, a second, blue-shifted peak appears. The pH and temperature dependence of the absorption spectrum indicates that the reconstituted bR is in an equilibrium between two pigments, which we call P560 and P480. Both pigments convert to their own K intermediates, which differ in absorption maxima, upon illumination with green light at -180 degrees C. Each K intermediate can be reverted to its initial state by light. Similarly, both pigments convert to their own M intermediates upon irradiation with yellow light at -77 degrees C. The M intermediate of both species can be reverted only to P560 by light. Both pigments are therefore photoactive. These unique photochemical properties of bR reconstituted from three fragments may be attributable to the lack of a covalent linkage in the loop connecting the A and B helices, and thus possibly to a change in the orientation of the B helix. 相似文献

For the first time, the structural and optoelectronic properties of a new complex formulated as CuBr2(C6H7N)2 ( 1 ) [trans‐dibromidobis(3‐methylpyridine‐κN) copper(II)] were studied by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. They are performed using B3LYP through the Gaussian 09 program and also with full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP‐LAPW) methods within the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) and Hartree‐Fock (HF) theory by the Wien2k package. The neutral monomeric complex participates in a variety of non‐covalent interactions, including hydrogen bonding and π stacking to create a 2D coordinate plane. The binding energy value of the non‐covalent interactions responsible for the crystalline network formation of 1 were calculated using the method of dispersion corrected density functional theory (DFT‐D). In this method, the independent smallest fragment (monomer) and subsequently the related network, including seven monomers bearing all non‐covalent interactions were optimized. The results demonstrate that hydrogen bonds, especially non‐conventional C–H ··· Br interactions, govern the network formation along the a and c axes. It can be mentioned because of these directed interactions, increasing of charge transfer along x and z directions results in increasement of the absorption and refractive index along y and z directions, and vice versa. The results of band structure show indirectly and directly the nature of the bandgap within GGA and HF, respectively. The bandgap value of CuBr2(C6H7N)2 is comparable to those of binary semiconductor compounds. DOSs spectra reveal that 3d Cu, 4p Br, and 2p C states play important roles in the optical transitions of the electrons. The calculated electronic absorption of the UV/Vis spectrum shows six major electron‐transition bands derived from d → d (ligand field) n → n, n → π*, π → n, and σ → n MLCT and LMCT transitions. The calculated absorption spectrum of the titled complex through FP‐LAPW within GGA method shows good consistency with the B3LYP/def2‐TZVP/6‐311+G(d,p) method. Our calculated birefringence results show that 1 has capability of nonlinear optical, which can be used in the nonlinear optoelectronic devices. 相似文献
