Research Abstract |
A series of hemoproteins, which are ubiquitous in nature, are holoproteins with a heme molecule as a prosthetic group. In this study, we firstly found that the successive self-assembly structure of hemoproteins is available when we introduced a heme moiety onto the apohemoprotein surface via covalent linkage. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the multilayer of hemoproteins can be immobilized onto the gold surface by same strategy.
