Amperometric TNT biosensor based on the oriented immobilization of a nitroreductase maltose binding protein fusion.
TL;DR: The preparation and characterization of an amperometric 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene biosensor based on the surface immobilization of a maltose binding protein (MBP) nitroreductase (NR) fusion onto an electrode modified with an electropolymerized film of N-(3-pyrrol-1-ylpropyl)-4,4'-bipyridine (PPB) are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the Impact of Denitrifier-Produced Nitric Oxide on Other Bacteria
Peter S. Choi,Zeki Naal,Charles M. Moore,Emerilis Casado-Rivera,Héctor D. Abruña,John D. Helmann,James P. Shapleigh +6 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that there is variability in the NO concentrations produced by denitrifiers, but, irrespective of the NO levels produced, microbes in the surrounding environment were responsive to the NO produced during denitrification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of Specific Binding of Maltose Binding Protein to Pyrrole-Derived Bipyridinium Film by Quartz Crystal Microbalance
Kazutake Takada,Zeki Naal,Joo-Heon Park,James P. Shapleigh,Stefan Bernhard,Carl A. Batt,Héctor D. Abruña +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the affinity of the maltose binding protein−nitro reductase fusion (MBP−NR) to electropolymerized films of N-(3-pyrrol-1-ylpropyl)-4,4‘-bipyridinium (PPB) has been studied in aqueous medium by the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detailed study of N-(3-pyrrol-1-yl-propyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium (PPB) electropolymerization
TL;DR: In this article, a plausible mechanism for the polymerization reaction is proposed, which involves quaternization of the second pyridine nitrogen, resulting in polymerization through a bipyridinium-pyrrole bond formation.
