Electric signals to reveal ion pump function Biological Research Center of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Institute of Biophysics P. O. B. 521, H-6701 Szeged, Hungary András Dér

Electric signals Crucial role in life functions: Signal and energy transduction

Nobel prize (1963) Hodgkin, Huxley, Katz Signal transduction Propagation of the nerve impulse

chemiosmosis: P. Mitchell, Nobel prize, 1978 ATP-ase: Boyer, Walker, Skou, Nobel prize, 1997 mitochondrial electron transfer Energy transduction

Why should we measure electric signals? Direct information about kinetics, ion specificity Together with other methods: details of the molecular mechanism is expected to be revealed Physicist's approach: atomic level description - chance to design molecules for biotechnology

How to measure electric signals? Microelectrode techniques fail for most pump proteins Patch clamp; Nobel prize 1991: Neher and Sackmann Alternative methods. Prerequisite: electrically asymmetric sample

1. Surface methods BLM method (Dancsházy et al., 1976; Bamberg et al., 1980) SSM method (Fendler et al., 1992) Advantage: ion specificity Disadvantage: limited spatio-temporal information

2. Bulk methods Advantageous for kinetic experiments Suspension method (Keszthelyi and Ormos, 1980) Gel method (Dér et al., 1985) Dried samples (Nagy, 1978; Váró, 1983)

Bacteriorhodopsin
