Thermal fluctuations determine the electron-transfer rates of cytochrome c in electrostatic and covalent complexes

The heterogeneous electron-transfer (ET) reaction of cytochrome c (Cyt-c) electrostatically or covalently immobilized on electrodes coated with self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of ω-functionalized alkanethiols is analyzed by surface-enhanced resonance Raman (SERR) spectroscopy and molecular dynamics...
