Research Abstract |
We have demonstrated a methodology that realizes the site-selective anatomy of molecular interactions at the single-molecule level. With the combination of cross-linkers and the atomic force microscope that we developed to enable a precise analysis by dynamic force spectroscopy, direct and bridged interactions at each reaction site in a typical ligand-receptor system, sreptavidin-biotin complex, were clearly distinguished and individually analyzed for the first time, providing a greater understanding of step-by-step progress of the bonding process.
