Quantum dot-bridge-fullerene heterodimers with controlled photoinduced electron transfer.
Molecular electronics has been growing rapidly, to a point where the ambition is to miniaturize conventional electronic devices down to the single-molecule scale. One of the essential components of the future molecular circuits is miniaturized power sources. A few reports have addressed this key issue by using a single nanowire as a low-power source for nanoelectronics, such as a piezoelectric ...
متن کاملPhotoinduced Electron-transfer In Self-associated Complexes Of Several Uroporphyrins And Cytochrome-c
Photoinduced electron transfer between cytochrome c and free base and metallouroporphyrin (Up, MUp) has been studied. Difference absorption spectrophotometry showed that the electrostatic interactions between Up and cytc(II1) result in their forming a self-associated 1:l complex in the ground state with a binding constant that depends upon the ionic strength. In the complex, the photoexcited ur...
متن کاملNMR basis for interprotein electron transfer gating between cytochrome c and cytochrome c oxidase.
The final interprotein electron transfer (ET) in the mammalian respiratory chain, from cytochrome c (Cyt c) to cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) is investigated by (1)H-(15)N heteronuclear single quantum coherence spectral analysis. The chemical shift perturbation in isotope-labeled Cyt c induced by addition of unlabeled CcO indicates that the hydrophobic heme periphery and adjacent hydrophobic amino ...
متن کاملFixed distance photoinduced electron transfer between Fe and Zn porphyrins encapsulated within the Zn HKUST-1 metal organic framework.
An attractive strategy for the development of photocatalytic metal organic framework (MOF) materials is to co-encapsulate a photoactive electron donor with a catalytic electron acceptor within the MOF. Here we report the co-encapsulation of both Zn(ii) tetrakis(tetra 4-sulphonatophenyl)porphyrin (Zn4SP) and Fe(iii) tetrakis(tetra 4-sulphonatophenyl)porphyrin (Fe4SP) into an HKUST-1 (Zn) MOF and...
متن کاملElectrostatic field around cytochrome c: theory and energy transfer experiment.
Energy transfer in the "rapid diffusion" limit from electronically excited terbium(III) chelates in three different charge states to horse heart ferricytochrome c was measured as a function of ionic strength. Theoretical rate constants calculated by numerical integration of the Forster integral (containing the Poisson-Boltzmann-generated protein electrostatic potential) were compared with the e...
