On the electron transfer mechanism between cytochrome c and metal electrodes. Evidence for dynamic control at short distances
Article Abstract:
The mechanism of heterogeneous electron transfer of the immobilized protein is studied using cyclic voltammetry and time-resolved surface-enhanced resonance Raman spectroelectrochemistry. Measurements of the temperature, distance, and overpotential dependencies of the electron transfer rates indicate a change of mechanism from a tunneling controlled reaction at long distances to a solvent/protein friction controlled reaction at smaller distances.

Surface-enhanced resonance Raman Spectroscopic and electrochemical study of cytochroime c Bound on electrodes through coordination with pyridinyl-terminated self-assembled manolayers
Article Abstract:
The cytochrome c (cyt-c) represents a perfect model protein, as its three- dimensional structure is well characterized and a large body of experimental data has been accumulated with heterogeneous and homogenous electron transfer reactions. The surface-enhanced resonance ram (SERR) spectroscopy probes all absorbed cyt-c species CV measurements indicate only the electronically active sub states.
