| Abstract | Atomic force microscopy is one of the most perspective methods for determination of the structure of proteins and their complexes. The vertical resolution of this method is about 0.1 nm, which is close to X-ray resolution. At the same time, the lateral resolution, determining by broadening effect of a standard AFM probe, is not very high—about 20–50 nm, depending on probe geometry. Naturally, the probe tip broadening effect leads to substantial enhancement of measured protein volume. In this study, a comparative analysis of sizes of the protein putidaredoxin reductase (PdR) obtained by the use of two AFM probe types, standard and supersharp, was undertaken. Usage of standard probes enabled to correctly measure the height of PdR while the volume of this protein was measured with considerably (more than one order) enhancement. It was shown that application of supersharp AFM probes results in the lowering of measured protein height; at the same time, the measured protein volume is more exact and appears to be close to RSA data. Therefore, to obtain exact data on protein volume and height, these two parameters should be measured by use of both supersharp probes and standard geometry probes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
