Kinetic parameters from detection probability in single molecule force spectroscopy.
The detection probability of rupture events in AFM force spectroscopy measurements presents a viable alternative to standard methods for extracting kinetic parameters of dissociation. The detection probability has a maximum as a function of the probe velocity where (1) the probability to form a molecular bond is independent of the probe velocity and (2) the detection of rupture events is limite...
متن کاملTheory, analysis, and interpretation of single-molecule force spectroscopy experiments.
Dynamic force spectroscopy probes the kinetic and thermodynamic properties of single molecules and molecular assemblies. Here, we propose a simple procedure to extract kinetic information from such experiments. The cornerstone of our method is a transformation of the rupture-force histograms obtained at different force-loading rates into the force-dependent lifetimes measurable in constant-forc...
متن کاملForce Spectroscopy of DNA and RNA: Structure and Kinetics from Single-Molecule Experiments
Force spectroscopy of individual DNA and RNA molecules provides unique insights into the structure and mechanics of these for life so essential molecules. Observations of DNA and RNA molecules one at a time provide spatial, structural, and temporal information that is complementary to the information obtained by classical ensemble methods. Single-molecule force spectroscopy has been realized on...
متن کاملDynamic Force Spectroscopy of Single Molecule
The direct measurement of forces between individual receptor-ligand complexes is an emerging new field. With the atomic force microscope (AFM) it has been possible to probe the forces between a range of biological molecules, including complementary oligo-nucleotides, proteins and carbohydrate interactions. To date, the force required to rupture these single ligandreceptor interactions is common...
متن کاملOn artifacts in single-molecule force spectroscopy.
In typical force spectroscopy experiments, a small biomolecule is attached to a soft polymer linker that is pulled with a relatively large bead or cantilever. At constant force, the total extension stochastically changes between two (or more) values, indicating that the biomolecule undergoes transitions between two (or several) conformational states. In this paper, we consider the influence of ...
