Abstract: | In the present paper, the application of scanning tunneling microscopy in cytochrome P450s membrane topology is discussed. The method enables visualization of heme location in the lipid-bilayer-incorporated protein. It is supposed that the membrane-bound cytochrome P450 on the tunneling microscope substrate should behave as 'molecular diode'. A model explaining the liposome and the proteoliposome images observed is proposed. |
