Picking up and unfolding a single protein
|
Assembly Nano-mechanics of HIV GP160
GP160mica
Typical sawtooth unfolding pattern of a single molecule of the HIV virion protein GP160. Unfolding forces can be extracted from the sawtooth pattern by applying the worm like chain model.
| |
|
Unfolding the ECM protein fibronectin
Sawtooth pattern on the retraction force curve indicating the unfolding of fibronectin. The average rupture force distribution of the protein on mica surface was 85.1 ± 2.7 pN. |
