FRET-capture: a sensitive method for the detection of dynamic protein interactions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Caught in the act: The FRET-Capture approach exploits a bound solvatochromic fluorophore, 4-N,N-dimethylamino-1,8-naphthalimide, as a FRET donor in both inter- and intramolecular energy transfer. A unique feature of this method is the additional level of signal selectivity as the FRET signal is only turned on when the donor is specifically bound to the protein of interest, eliminating high background and false positive signals.

Background: Recently, some new nanobiosensors using different nanoparticles or microarray systems for detection of mycotoxins have been designed . However, rapid, sensitive and early detection of aflatoxicosis would be very helpful to distinguish high-risk persons. Objectives: We report a highly sensitive competitive immunoassay using magnetic/silica core shell as a signal intensifier for the d...
متن کاملA Combination Method of Centrality Measures and Biological Properties to Improve Detection of Protein Complexes in Weighted PPI Networks
Introduction: In protein-protein interaction networks (PPINs), a complex is a group of proteins that allows a biological process to take place. The correct identification of complexes can help better understanding of the function of cells used for therapeutic purposes, such as drug discoveries. One of the common methods for identifying complexes in the PPINs is clustering, but this study aimed ...

متن کاملAAV Vectors for FRET-Based Analysis of Protein-Protein Interactions in Photoreceptor Outer Segments
Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a powerful method for the detection and quantification of stationary and dynamic protein-protein interactions. Technical limitations have hampered systematic in vivo FRET experiments to study protein-protein interactions in their native environment. Here, we describe a rapid and robust protocol that combines adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector-me...

BACKGROUND Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) between the green fluorescent protein (GFP) variants CFP and YFP is widely used for the detection of protein-protein interactions. Nowadays, several monomeric red-shifted fluorescent proteins are available that potentially improve the efficiency of FRET. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS To allow side-by-side comparison of several fluoresc...
