Abstract excerpt
A mutant of copper plastocyanin, covalently bound to an Au (111) surface through an engineered disulfide bridge, was investigated in aqueous medium by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Tapping-mode AFM images revealed adsorption of single molecules which are homogeneously distributed over the substrate and strongly bound to gold and display uniform lateral size. A statistical...
