We explored the potential of the motor protein F 0 F 1 -ATPase as biosensors of harmful residues in food. A fluorescence probe F1300 labelled in inner chromatophores was used as a pH indicator for detecting proton flux driven by ATP synthesis in F 0 F 1 -ATPase. Furthermore, the F 1 β subunit of F 0...
