Single-molecule measurement of protein folding kinetics.
In order to investigate the behavior of single molecules under conditions far from equilibrium, we have coupled a microfabricated laminar-flow mixer to a confocal optical system. This combination enables time-resolved measurement of Förster resonance energy transfer after an abrupt change in solution conditions. Observations of a small protein show the evolution of the intramolecular distance d...
متن کاملSingle molecule measurement of the "speed limit" of DNA polymerase.
Although DNA replication is often imagined as a regular and continuous process, the DNA polymerase enzyme is a complicated machine and can pause upon encountering physical and chemical barriers. We used single molecule measurements to make a detailed characterization of this behavior as a function of the template's secondary structure and the sequence context. Strand displacement replication th...
متن کاملSingle Molecule Fluorescence Investigation of Protein Folding
Title of Document: SINGLE MOLECULE FLUORESCENCE INVESTIGATION OF PROTEIN FOLDING Jianwei Liu, Ph.D., 2008 Directed By: Associate Professor, Victor Muñoz, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry In addition to the well known two-state folding scenario, the energy landscape theory of protein folding predicts the possibility of downhill folding under native conditions. This intriguing prediction ...
متن کاملSingle-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy of protein folding.
Single-molecule spectroscopy is an important new approach for studying the intrinsically heterogeneous process of protein folding. This Review illustrates how different single-molecule fluorescence techniques have improved our understanding of mechanistic aspects in protein folding, exemplified by a series of recent experiments on a small protein.
متن کاملMeasurement of single-molecule conductance.
What is the conductance of a single molecule? This basic and seemingly simple question has been a difficult one to answer for both experimentalists and theorists. To determine the conductance of a molecule, one must wire the molecule reliably to at least two electrodes. The conductance of the molecule thus depends not only on the intrinsic properties of the molecule, but also on the electrode m...
