The dynamic side of the Hofmeister effect: a single-molecule nanopore study of specific complex formation.

چکیده
Beyond measurements of equilibria: An alpha-hemolysin nanopore is used as a single-molecule sensor to follow the effects of different salts on the complexation reaction of gamma-cyclodextrin and adamantane carboxylate (see picture). The kinetics underlying the dynamic equilibrium are studied to reveal qualitatively different dynamic actions of various cosolute salts.

متن کاملEffect of Lycopene on Formation of Low Density Lipoprotein-Copper Complex in Copper Catalyzed Peroxidation of Low Density Lipoprotein, as in vitro Experiment
Background: A great deal of evidence has indicated that oxidatively modified LDL plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Antioxidants that can prevent LDL oxidation may act as antiatherogens. Copper is a candidate for oxidizing LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. The binding of copper ions to LDL is usually thought to be a prerequisite for LDL oxidation by copper...
متن کاملHighly Sensitive Detection of H2S Molecules Using a TiO2-Supported Au Overlayer Based Nanosensors: A Van Der Waals Corrected DFT Study
The adsorption of the H2S molecule on the undoped and N-doped TiO2 anatase supported Au nanoparticles were studied using density functional theory calculations. The adsorption of H2S on both Au and TiO2 sides of the nanoparticle was examined. On the TiO2 side, the fivefold coordinated titanium site was found to be the most favorable binding site, giving rise to the strong interaction of H2S wit...
