Two-dimensional heterospectral correlation analysis of the redox-induced conformational transition in cytochrome c using surface-enhanced Raman and infrared absorption spectroscopi... by Zou, Changji, Larisika, Melanie, Nagy, Gabor, Srajer, Johannes, Oostenbrink, Chris, Chen, Xiaodong, Knoll, Wolfgang, Nowak, Christoph, Bo, Liedberg

“…The heme protein cytochrome c adsorbed to a two-layer gold surface modified with a self-assembled monolayer of 2-mercaptoethanol was analyzed using a two-dimensional (2D) heterospectral correlation analysis that combined surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). Stepwise increasing electric potentials were applied to alter the redox state of the protein and to induce conformational changes within the protein backbone. …”
