AFM and TEM observations of alpha-helix to beta-sheet conformational change occurring on carbon nanotubes
{{output}}
Bacteriorhodopsin (BR), which is rich in alpha-helical structure, was spread onto water with single-wall carbon nanotubes (SCNTs). After a Langmuir trough was used to apply compressive surface pressure to maintain the alpha-helices monolayer of denatured BR, t... ...
