- Electroactive and Photoelectroactive domains of living cell membrane pores sensed amperometrically with an atomic force microscopy probe
Electroactive and Photoelectroactive domains of living cell membrane pores sensed amperometrically with an atomic force microscopy probe
in: Scientific Reports (2017)
Light is essential to cellular life. Understanding how light regulates the ways in which molecules store and conduct charge or transmit well-ordered forces and energy is a prerequisite for the elucidation of membrane cybernetics. In this study, we report a miniaturized amperometric atomic force microscopy (AFM) probe sensor that can distinguish between six- lobar and four-lobar pores in the plasma membranes of living cells and can further discern their electroactive domains. We found that ultraviolet light stimulates certain electroactive molecules of membrane pores.
