Reversible Unfolding of Individual Titin Immunoglobulin Domains by AFM, Science, M. Reif, H. Gaub, 1997
Reversible Unfolding by AFM Pulling on Titin
Gold
Simple model: Upon reaching a certain force (peaks, e.g. 1), the abrupt unfolding of a (Titin) domain lengthens the polypeptide by 28 to 29 nm and reduces the force (troughs) to that of the value predicted by the force extension curve of the enlarged polypeptide (2). Start on next domain. As it’s pulling, polymer behaves like WLC.
Why does curve look like it does?Why non-linear?Why repeat?Does repeat tell you anything about polymer?

The Sarcomere: unit of muscle
Myosin head binds to actin; rotates upon ATP binding, pulls actin together.

Myosin II moves Actin
(Vale & Milligan, Science)
Notice: ATP induces a conformational change: rotation of lever armMyosin II acting as a fulcrum, rotating with ATP while driving actin 2 heads of Myosin II; only one head per dimer active.Myosin II spends about 5% of it’s time bound to actin.Myosin II is a non-processive motor, i.e. by itself, it takes 1 step on actin.
is processive only because it works in groups which are held together via the thick filament.

Picking up a single protein“needle in a haystack”: usually pick up > 1 protein“Fingerprint” of e.g. (I91)8: by using identical repeats, unfolding forces are nearly identical with peaks equally spaced. (see Fig d)

How Strong is a Covalent Bond?Recall: what did we say it was?
How Strong is a Covalent Bond?Gaub, Science, 1999Note: It’s actually the C-Si which breaks!
About 100-200 kBT
Force Spectroscopy
Covalent bond to the tip, substrate-- gold or glass-- and within Amylose.
We stretched the molecules until one of the covalent bonds in series ruptured. By analyzing the bond rupture, we were able to identify the bond that failed. Within amylose (covalent bonds) was found not to rupture.
![Page 11: Today’s Topic: AFM Experimental Approach via Atomic Force Microscopy Imaging Mode, Force Mode. Example: Measuring strength of Heart Muscle (Titin) Strength.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649daf5503460f94a9d3aa/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Thus, this transition can be used as a molecular strain gauge that can be built into an experiment to report the force that is acting on any point of the molecular bridge.
Control: no covalent attachment with amylose.Reversible stretching of amylose (polysaccharides). Not dependent on rate of stretching. Sugar rings switch into a more extended arrangement. With amylose, this results in a characteristic plateau at 275 pN with an extension of 0.5 Å per ring unit (Fig. 2A).
2B: Covalent attachment: sudden ruptures about 2 pN.
With amylose: 275 pN (low-force) with an extension of 0.5 Å per ring unit= (275pN)(0.05nm) = 13.75 pN-nm = 3kBT
At the given force-loading rates of 10 nN/s, the histogram peaks at a value of 2.0 ± 0.3 nN.

Which is Covalent Bond that breaks?
How Strong is a Covalent Bond?Gaub, Science, 1999
Four bonds are unique to the attachment: Si–O, Si–C, C–C, and C–N bonds. The C–O bond is found in the attachment and in the amylose backbone. At first, it was difficult to decide which of these four different bonds was breaking in our experiment. We ruled out the rupture of the Si–O bond because three of these bonds hold in parallel at the surface. As a first approximation, we correlated the strength of a covalent bond with the ratio of the dissociation energy and the bond length. Considering the enthalpy for dissociation and the bond length (20), we decided that the Si–C bond was the most likely candidate for rupture in our experiment.
Largely theoretical argument.
