of cytochrome c on the surface of chemically modified electrodes is demonstrated and used to investigate the protein's electron-transfer kinetics. Mixed monolayer films of alkanethiols and omega-terminated alkanethiols (terminated with pyridine, imidazole, or nitrile groups that are able to ligate with the heme) are used to adsorb cytochrome c to the surface of gold electrodes. The use of mixed films
展示了一种将细胞色素 c 固定在化学修饰电极表面的新策略,并用于研究蛋白质的电子转移动力学。链烷硫醇和欧米茄封端的链烷硫醇(以吡啶、咪唑或能够与血红素结合的腈基团封端)的混合单层膜用于将细胞色素 c 吸附到金电极的表面。与纯薄膜相比,使用混合薄膜可以使吸附的细胞色素的浓度保持稀释,并确保其环境具有更高程度的均匀性。使用电化学方法和扫描隧道显微镜研究吸附的蛋白质。
