Inter‐Nanoparticle FRET for Biosensing: Photophysics Versus Size

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) systems with luminescent nanoparticles (NPs) as donors and acceptors (inter‐NP FRET) combine unique photophysical properties with large sizes. This review discusses the influence of NP type, architecture, surface chemistry, and optical properties on FRET and the pros and cons of inter‐NP FRET for bioanalytical ...

Physical properties of the bacterial outer membrane

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2021
It has long been appreciated that the Gram-negative outer membrane acts as a permeability barrier, but recent studies have uncovered a more expansive and versatile role for the outer membrane in cellular physiology and viability. Owing to recent developments in microfluidics and microscopy, the structural, rheological and mechanical properties of the ...

Assembly of Bacterial Outer Membrane Proteins

2012
Various methods that are routinely used to study the subcellular localization of membrane proteins in wild-type Gram-negative bacteria fall short in genetic studies addressing the biogenesis of outer membrane proteins (OMPs). Here, we describe three biochemical methods that can be used in such studies to evaluate the proper assembly of OMPs into the ...

Secretion across the bacterial outer membrane

Trends in Genetics, 1992
Many bacteria secrete extracellular proteins such as hydrolytic enzymes or toxins. In Gram-negative bacteria, secreted proteins must cross the two membranes that constitute the cell envelope. Recent studies have identified several specific secretion systems that can be classified in three distinct pathways, and related systems have been discovered in a
