Abstract: | 4-Aminothiophenol (4-ATP) self-assembled monolayer (SAM) was immobilized on gold electrode. The multi-layered protein film electrode was prepared to rinse the 4-ATP-Au electrode in poly-styrenesulfonate (PSS) and poly-dimerthyldiallylammonium chloride (PDDA) successively, then soaked in a solution containing photosynthetic reaction center (RC) protein from Rhodobacter sphaeriodes or its pigment-replaced mutant. Thus, RC was found embedded in an ordered-orientation film. In cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV), Au electrode gave a series of electrochemical signals due to the redox reaction of RC protein or its mutants. Intermolecular direct electron transfer (ET) was studied in this work. |
