A new type of monolayer of photosynthetic reaction centers (RC) with the primary donor facing the carbon electrode has been constructed using a new bifunctional linker and genetically engineered protein. Comparison of protein in two different orientations with linkers binding to the opposite sides of the protein demonstrates the possibility of utilizing the constructed surfaces as photoelectronic devices. The results show improvement of the electron transfer efficiency when RC is bound with the primary donor (P) facing the electrode (P-side). In either protein orientation, electron transfer within the protein is unidirectional and when applying a voltage RC operates as a photorectifier. Electron transfer between the protein and carbon electrodes in the constructed devices is most likely occurring by tunneling. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
