Figure 21. A/C) Photocurrent measurements on pore-spanning membranes incubat-
ed with bR-doped liposomes upon illumination using a halogen lamp as a light
source and a cut-off-filter of 515 nm. B) (Ƒ) Impedance spectrum 7.5 h after the
addition of DPhPC/DOPC (6:4) LUVs doped with 0.1 mol% octadecylamine. (ż)
Impedance spectrum 12 h after the addition of bR-doped vesicles composed of
DPhPC/DOPC/DPPA (6:3:1) containing 1 mol% bR. Data analysis was performed
using the equivalent circuit depicted in Fig. 5 B with the following results: (Ƒ) R el =
1700 ȍ, R m = 4.3·10 5 ȍ, A = 2.4·10 -8 F s Į -1 and Į = 0.77; (ż) R el = 1700 ȍ, R m =
2.2·10 4 ȍ, A = 1.7·10 -7 F s Į -1 , and Į = 0.71. D) (Ƒ) Impedance spectrum 24 h after
the addition of DPhPC/DOPC (6:4) LUVs doped with 0.1 mol% octadecylamine.
(ż) Impedance spectrum 14 h after the addition of bR-containing vesicles. Data
analysis was based on the equivalent circuit depicted in Fig. 7 C with the following
result: (Ƒ) R el = 5890 ȍ, R m1 = 1.1·10 5 ȍ, C m1 = 0.10·10 -9 F, R m2 = 6.1·10 6 ȍ, and
C m2 = 0.9·10 -9 F; (ż) R el = 2290 ȍ, R m1 = 3.1·10 5 ȍ, C m1 = 0.15·10 -9 F, R m2 = 1.7·10 6
ȍ and C m2 = 1.81·10 -9 F. Buffer: 10 mM TRIS, 100 mM KCl, pH 7.4.
bR-containing vesicles hemifused to the pore-suspending mem-
brane. In this case, two populations of bR-molecules contribute to
the monitored light-induced photocurrent. Proteins that span the
bilayer as found in scenario A provide the stationary current, while
bR remaining in hemi-fused liposomes build up a transient current
similar to what has been found for PM-fragments adsorbed to
nano-BMLs. In this case, the equivalent circuit shown in Fig. 17 A
