Engineering Genetically Encoded FRET Sensors
Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) between two fluorescent proteins can be exploited to create fully genetically encoded and thus subcellularly targetable sensors. FRET sensors report changes in energy transfer between a donor and an acceptor fluorescent protein that occur when an attached sensor domain undergoes a change in conformation in response to ligand binding. The design of sensit...
متن کاملA Genetically Encoded Reporter for Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging
The ability to monitor gene expression in intact, optically opaque animals is important for a multitude of applications including longitudinal imaging of transgene expression and long term tracking of cell based therapeutics. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could enable such monitoring with high spatial and temporal resolution. However, existing MRI reporter genes, based primarily on metal-bin...
متن کاملConstruction and optimization of a family of genetically encoded metabolite sensors by semirational protein engineering.
A family of genetically-encoded metabolite sensors has been constructed using bacterial periplasmic binding proteins (PBPs) linearly fused to protein fluorophores. The ligand-induced conformational change in a PBP allosterically regulates the relative distance and orientation of a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-compatible protein pair. Ligand binding is transduced into a macrosco...
متن کاملGenetically-encoded sensors of protein hydrodynamics
A major challenge in cell biology is to understand the molecular basis of complex processes, including motility and cytokinesis. Meeting this challenge will require new genetically-encoded fluorescent sensors that allow for quantitative, sensitive, dynamic and highresolution imaging of signaling proteins and their effector protein complexes in living cells. Currently, the most popular sensors a...
متن کاملEngineering redox-sensitive linkers for genetically encoded FRET-based biosensors.
The ability to sense intracellular or intraorganellar reduction/oxidation conditions would provide a powerful tool for studying normal cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Genetically encoded biosensors enable monitoring of the intracellular redox environment. We report the development of chimeric polypeptides useful as redox-sensitive linkers in conjunction with Förster resonanc...
