Single-molecule lysozyme dynamics monitored by an electronic circuit.
Tethering a single lysozyme molecule to a carbon nanotube field-effect transistor produced a stable, high-bandwidth transducer for protein motion. Electronic monitoring during 10-minute periods extended well beyond the limitations of fluorescence techniques to uncover dynamic disorder within a single molecule and establish lysozyme as a processive enzyme. On average, 100 chemical bonds are proc...
متن کاملSingle molecule electronic devices.
Single molecule electronic devices in which individual molecules are utilized as active electronic components constitute a promising approach for the ultimate miniaturization and integration of electronic devices in nanotechnology through the bottom-up strategy. Thus, the ability to understand, control, and exploit charge transport at the level of single molecules has become a long-standing des...
متن کاملComplex formation dynamics in a single-molecule electronic device
Single-molecule electronic devices offer unique opportunities to investigate the properties of individual molecules that are not accessible in conventional ensemble experiments. However, these investigations remain challenging because they require (i) highly precise device fabrication to incorporate single molecules and (ii) sufficient time resolution to be able to make fast molecular dynamic m...
متن کاملProbing single-molecule dynamics photon by photon
We present the theoretical rationales for data analysis protocols that afford an efficient extraction of conformational dynamics on a broad range of time scales from single-molecule fluorescence lifetime trajectories. Based on correlation analyses, a photon-by-photon approach on one hand provides the highest time resolution, whereas a minimal-binning method on the other hand is most suitable fo...
متن کاملSingle Molecule Dynamics Studied by Polarization Modulation.
We observed and made unambiguous distinctions between abrupt photophysical events of single molecules: a rotational jump of a single dipole, a transition to a dark state (reversible and irreversible photobleaching), and a spectral jump. The study was performed in the far field by modulating the excitation polarization and monitoring the fluorescence in time. This technique also allowed us to me...
