چکیده
The surface pressure was measured as a function of area/molecule for chlorophyll a (Chi) and cytochrome c (Cyt) at a heptane-water interface. At a surface pressure of 6 dyn/cm the area per molecule of C h l(^6) =113 ±6 Ä2, for reduced Cyt c (red. Cyt) the A6 = 5000 ± 300 Ä2 and for oxidized Cyt c (ox. Cyt) /3(6=4100 ± 250 A2. Cyt appears to denature at the interface. Irradiation results in a decrease of the for Chi to ^ 8 = 100±5Ä2. There appears to be interaction between Chi and red. Cyt in a mixed film no interaction is observed between Chi and ox. Cyt.

Photosynthetic electron carriers at a heptane-water interface.
Surface properties of monomolecular films of chlorophyll (Chl), plastocyanin (Pc), cytochrome c (Cyt) and ferridoxin (Fd) were measured at a heptane-water interface. Mixed films of Chl and the other components were examined in darkness and in light. The area/molecule, A, for Fd (from Cl. pasteurianum) is much larger at a heptane-water than Fd (from spinach) at an air-water interface. This diffe...
متن کاملMixed monomolecular films of chlorophyll and cytochromes.
Mixed monomolecular films of cytochrome (Cyt) and chlorophyll (Chl) were spread at a nitrogen-water interface. A large interaction is observed between reduced Cyt f and Chl a in a mixed film. Oxidized Cyt f and Chl a in a mixed film show little evidence for interaction. Mixed monomolecular films of Chl a with either reduced or oxidized Cyt c appears to result in denaturation of the protein at t...
متن کاملAdsorption behavior of lauric acid at heptane/water interface as studied by second harmonic generation spectroscopy and interfacial tensiometry.
Interfacial tensiometry and second harmonic generation (SHG) spectroscopy were applied to examine the adsorption behavior of lauric acid (LA) at a heptane/water interface. From interfacial tensiometry measurements, the adsorption kinetics of LA was revealed to be diffusion-controlled, and the adsorption constant of LA was estimated to be 9.6 x 10(4) M(-1). The adsorption isotherms obtained by S...
