Model systems for flavoenzyme activity: recognition and redox modulation of flavin mononucleotide in water using nanoparticles.
We have used mixed monolayer protected gold clusters (MMPCs) to provide flavoenzyme model systems with a high affinity and ability to modulate cofactor reduction potential.
