Intermolecular contrast in atomic force microscopy images without intermolecular bonds.
Intermolecular features in atomic force microscopy images of organic molecules have been ascribed to intermolecular bonds. A recent theoretical study [P. Hapala et al., Phys. Rev. B 90, 085421 (2014)] showed that these features can also be explained by the flexibility of molecule-terminated tips. We probe this effect by carrying out atomic force microscopy experiments on a model system that con...
متن کاملDetection and mapping of mismatched base pairs in DNA molecules by atomic force microscopy.
Attempts were made to apply atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging to the detection and mapping of the sites of base substitutions in DNA molecules. In essence, DNA fragments to be examined for possible base substitutions were mixed with an equal amount of a corresponding DNA standard and subjected to heat denaturation and subsequent annealing. The reassociated DNA was incubated with MutS protei...
متن کاملUnveiled electric profiles within hydrogen bonds suggest DNA base pairs with similar bond strengths
Electrical forces are the background of all the interactions occurring in biochemical systems. From here and by using a combination of ab-initio and ad-hoc models, we introduce the first description of electric field profiles with intrabond resolution to support a characterization of single bond forces attending to its electrical origin. This fundamental issue has eluded a physical description ...
متن کاملRoom-temperature single-electron charging detected by electrostatic force microscopy.
We use atomic force microscopy to measure electron addition spectra of individual Au nanoparticles that exhibit Coulomb blockade at room temperature. The cantilever tip charges individual nanoparticles supported on an ultra-thin NaCl film via single-electron tunneling from the metal back electrode. The tunneling is detected by measuring frequency shift and damping of the oscillating cantilever....
متن کاملSelective recognition of unnatural imidazopyridopyrimidine:naphthyridine base pairs consisting of four hydrogen bonds by the Klenow fragment.
In this work, we investigated how thermally stable ImO(N):NaN(O) and ImN(O):NaO(N) pairs are recognized by the Klenow fragment (KF). As a result, these complementary base pairs, especially the ImN(O):NaO(N) pair, were recognized selectively due to the four hydrogen bonds between the nucleobases and the shape complementarity of the Im:Na pair similar to the purine:pyrimidine base pair.
