Cytochrome c (cyt c)-immobilized monolayers and multiple monolayers of a conducting polymer [poly(terthiophene-3-carboxylic acid) polymer (poly-TTCA)] were prepared, where the monolayer of monomer precursor was fabricated with the Langmuir-Blogett technique. Covalent immobilization of cyt c was achieved by the formation of an amide bond between the carboxylic groups of the conducting polymer and amines groups of lysine in cyt c. The monolayer of poly-TTCA and poly-TTCA/cyt c was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, XPS, EQCM, Auger electron spectra (AES), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The immobilization of cyt c on the polymer layer reveals the direct electron-transfer processes of cyt c. Cyclic voltarnmetry of the poly-TTCA/cyt c-modified electrode showed a pair of reversible peaks at similar to+212/+201 mV (E-pa/E-pc) versus Ag/AgCl in a 0.2 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0). The peak separation and the redox peak current of the poly-TTCA/cyt c-modified electrodes were gradually increased by increasing the number of poly-TTCA/cyt c layers on the electrode. The heterogeneous electron-transfer rate constant (k(s)) of cyt c at the poly-TTCA/cyt c-monolayer-modified electrode was estimated to be 0.874 s(-1). The method provides a novel route for the fabrication of protein (cyt c)-immobilized and/or lipid (pal mitoyloleoylphosphatidic acid)immobilized monolayers and multiple monolayers of a conducting polymer. Cyt c bonded on the conductive polymer layers was applied for bioelectronic devices with unique functionality.
