ATOMIC FORCE MICROSCOPY (AFM) RESEARCH OF SUPRAMOLECULAR STRUCTURES IN MECHANISMS OF CATALYSIS AND MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES OF CELLS

摘要

A new approach to the research of supramolecular complexes by the AFM method and the possible role of hydrogen bonds in the formation of nanostructures of metal complexes simulating the active centres of enzymes was proposed. The formation of these structures occurs due to non-covalent intermolecular interactions, and to a certain extent reflects the structure of the complexes involved in the mechanisms of homogeneous and enzymatic catalysis, as well as during morphological changes of cells.
