Advanced Fluorescence Microscopy to Study Plasma Membrane Protein Dynamics THÈSE
Membrane protein dynamics is of great importance for living organisms. The precise localization of proteins composing a synapse on the membrane facing a nerve terminus is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system. In muscle fibers, the nicotinic acetylcholine is densely packed under the motor nerve termini. A receptor associated protein, rapsyn, acts as a linker between the recepto...
متن کاملDual-color fluorescence-burst analysis to study pore formation and protein-protein interactions.
Dual-color fluorescence-burst analysis (DCBFA) enables to study leakage of fluorescently labeled (macro) molecules from liposomes that are labeled with a second, spectrally non-overlapping fluorophore. The fluorescent bursts that reside from the liposomes diffusing through the focal volume of a confocal microscope will coincide with those from the encapsulated size-marker molecules. The interna...
متن کاملGenotyping single-nucleotide polymorphisms by the invader assay with dual-color fluorescence polarization detection.
BACKGROUND The PCR-Invader assay is a robust, homogeneous assay that has been shown to be highly sensitive and specific in genotyping single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. In this study, we introduce two changes to improve the assay: (a) we streamline the PCR-Invader method by assaying both alleles for each SNP in one reaction; and (b) we reduce the cost of the method by adopting fluore...
متن کاملDual-color fluorescence-burst analysis to probe protein efflux through the mechanosensitive channel MscL.
The mechanosensitive channel protein of large conductance, MscL, from Escherichia coli has been implicated in protein efflux, but the passage of proteins through the channel has never been demonstrated. We used dual-color fluorescence-burst analysis to evaluate the efflux of fluorescent labeled compounds through MscL. The method correlates the fluctuations in intensity of fluorescent labeled me...
متن کاملFluorescence recovery assay for the detection of protein-DNA binding.
We report a novel and straightforward fluorescence recovery assay which enables the detection of protein-DNA interactions and simultaneously determines relative binding affinities of sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins for a variety of DNA sequences in a multiplexed format. The detection of protein-DNA binding is accomplished by monitoring fluorescence recovery during exonuclease digestion o...
