Force Measurement Enabling Precise Analysis by Dynamic Force Spectroscopy
Dynamic force spectroscopy (DFS) makes it possible to investigate specific interactions between two molecules such as ligand-receptor pairs at the single-molecule level. In the DFS method based on the Bell-Evans model, the unbinding force applied to a molecular bond is increased at a constant rate, and the force required to rupture the molecular bond is measured. By analyzing the relationship b...
متن کاملDynamic force spectroscopy: optimized data analysis.
The forced rupture of single chemical bonds in biomolecular compounds (e.g., ligand-receptor systems) as observed in dynamic force spectroscopy experiments is addressed. An optimized method of data analysis is proposed. This method significantly outperforms the current standard one when applied to data from an idealized numerical computer simulation of an experiment with realistic parameter val...
متن کاملReconsideration of Dynamic Force Spectroscopy Analysis of Streptavidin-Biotin Interactions
To understand and design molecular functions on the basis of molecular recognition processes, the microscopic probing of the energy landscapes of individual interactions in a molecular complex and their dependence on the surrounding conditions is of great importance. Dynamic force spectroscopy (DFS) is a technique that enables us to study the interaction between molecules at the single-molecule...
متن کاملDynamic force spectroscopy: Analysis of reversible bond-breaking dynamics.
The problem of diffusive bond dissociation in a double well potential under application of an external force is scrutinized. We compute the probability distribution of rupture forces and present a detailed discussion of the influence of finite rebinding probabilities on the dynamic force spectrum. In particular, we focus on barrier crossing upon extension, i.e., under linearly increased load, a...
متن کاملDynamic force spectroscopy of molecular adhesion bonds.
Recent advances in atomic force microscopy, biomembrane force probe experiments, and optical tweezers allow one to measure the response of single molecules to mechanical stress with high precision. Such experiments, due to limited spatial resolution, typically access only one single force value in a continuous force profile that characterizes the molecular response along a reaction coordinate. ...
