FRET이란 무엇인가? 단백질의 크기나 세포막 두께 정도에 해당하는 거리 “거리＂의존적 Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer 두 종류의 형광물질이 가까운 거리에 있을 때 공명에 의해 에너지를 전달하는 현상 10Å~100Å 단백질의 크기나 세포막 두께 정도에 해당하는 거리 “거리＂의존적

A donor can directly transfer its excitation energy to an acceptor through long-range dipole-dipole intermolecular coupling. Proposed by Theodor Förster in the late 1940s Energy transfer is non-radiative which means the donor is not emitting a photon which is absorbed by the acceptor

CFP is excited by light and emits light No FRET Signal CFP is excited by light and emits light CFP is more than 10 nm distant from YFP YFP is not excited and does not emit light FRET Signal CFP is excited by light but does emit little light CFP is in close proximity (1-10 nm) to YFP YFP is not excited by light but does emit light

FRET의 조건-형광물질의 성질 The donor emission spectrum must overlap significantly with the acceptor excitation spectrum

Fluorophore pair for FRET The excitation light for the donor must not directly excite the acceptor.

FRET의 적용

FRET의 장점 •FRET is relatively cheap •It is very efficient in measuring changes in distances. •Measure distances in molecules in solution. •Only need a few µM of labeled proteins. •Once you have labeled your molecule, you can have a measurement rapidly. •You can measure distances or changes in distances in a complex of molecules

FRET의 단점 •The precision of the measure is impaired by the uncertainty of the orientation factor and by the size of the probes •When measuring a change in distance between two probes, the result is a scalar and give no indications of which probe (donor and/or acceptor) moves. •These measurements give the average distance between the two probes.

Thank you!
