Biomolecular interactions measured by atomic force microscopy.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is nowadays frequently applied to determine interaction forces between biological molecules. Starting with the detection of the first discrete unbinding forces between ligands and receptors by AFM only several years ago, measurements have become more and more quantitative. At the same time, theories have been developed to describe and understand the dynamics of the...

متن کاملMultiparametric Atomic Force Microscopy Imaging of Biomolecular and Cellular Systems.
There is a need in biochemical research for new tools that can image and manipulate biomolecular and cellular systems at the nanoscale. During the past decades, there has been tremendous progress in developing atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques to analyze biosystems, down to the single-molecule level. Force-distance (FD) curve-based AFM in particular has enabled researchers to map and qua...
متن کاملHigh-speed atomic force microscopy for observing dynamic biomolecular processes.
The atomic force microscope (AFM) is unique in its capability to capture high-resolution images of biological samples in liquids. This capability will become more valuable to biological sciences if AFM additionally acquires an ability of high-speed imaging, because 'direct and real-time visualization' is a straightforward and powerful means to understand biomolecular processes. With conventiona...
متن کاملQuantitative characterization of biomolecular assemblies and interactions using atomic force microscopy.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been applied in many biological investigations in the past 15 years. This review focuses on the application of AFM for quantitatively characterizing the structural and thermodynamic properties of protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid complexes. AFM can be used to determine the stoichiometries and association constants of multiprotein assemblies and to quanti...
