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 کاملARTICLES ON SINGLE-MOLECULE PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY Direct measurements of memory effects in single-molecule kinetics
Statistics and correlations of single-molecule sequences of modulated reactions are explicitly evaluated in the stochastic rate representation. The memory function, introduced through the Gaussian approximation of the stochastic rate expression, characterizes the correlation in single-molecule rate processes in a formalism similar to the stochastic line shape theory. Within this formalism, the ...
متن کاملDirect measurement of the intermolecular forces confining a single molecule in an entangled polymer solution.
We use optical tweezers to directly measure the intermolecular forces acting on a single polymer imposed by surrounding entangled polymers (115 kbp DNA, 1 mg/ml). A tubelike confining field was measured in accord with the key assumption of reptation models. A time-dependent harmonic potential opposed transverse displacement, in accord with recent simulation findings. A tube radius of 0.8 microm...
متن کاملDirect measurement of single-molecule diffusion and photodecomposition in free solution.
Continuous monitoring of submillisecond free-solution dynamics of individual rhodamine-6G molecules and 30-base single-stranded DNA tagged with rhodamine was achieved. Fluorescence images were recorded from the same set of isolated molecules excited either through the evanescent field at the quartz-liquid interface or as a thin layer of solution defined by micron-sized wires, giving diffraction...
متن کاملOptimization of Cell Morphology Measurement via Single-Molecule Tracking PALM
In neurons, the shape of dendritic spines relates to synapse function, which is rapidly altered during experience-dependent neural plasticity. The small size of spines makes detailed measurement of their morphology in living cells best suited to super-resolution imaging techniques. The distribution of molecular positions mapped via live-cell Photoactivated Localization Microscopy (PALM) is a po...
