Multimeric Purinoceptor Detection by Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer [PDF]
Assays based on bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) provide a sensitive and simple method to study protein-protein interactions in live cells. Here we describe a protocol using BRET technique to investigate potential interactions between P2X subunits.

Bisdeoxycoelenterazine Derivatives for Improvement of Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer Assays [PDF]
We report here syntheses of bisdeoxycoelenterazine derivatives that show significantly improved kinetics of the bioluminescent reaction. All derivatives contain a protecting group at the carbonyl group of the imidazopyrazinone moiety that ensures slower light signal decay.

Subcellular Imaging of Dynamic Protein Interactions by Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer [PDF]
Despite the fact that numerous studies suggest the existence of receptor multiprotein complexes, visualization and monitoring of the dynamics of such protein assemblies remain a challenge. In this study, we established appropriate conditions to consider spatiotemporally resolved images of such protein assemblies using bioluminescence resonance energy ...

Type-3 BRET, an improved competition-based bioluminescence resonance energy transfer assay. [PDF]
We show that in conventional, competition-based bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) assays of membrane protein stoichiometry, the presence of competitors can alter tagged-protein density and artifactually reduce energy transfer efficiency. A

Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer Reveals the Adrenocorticotropin (ACTH)-Induced Conformational Change of the Activated ACTH Receptor Complex in Living Cells [PDF]
Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer analysis is used to study the interaction between melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2R) accessory protein and the MC2R and provides evidence for protein kinase A-dependent conformational changes in the receptor complex ...

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer studies of protein interactions [PDF]
This thesis presents an investigation of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) as a reporting signal for protein-protein interactions. Quantitative optical assays to measure protein binding, conjugation and deconjugation are developed and results

A beginner's guide to bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) [PDF]
The Beginner's Guides are an ongoing series of articles in the magazine, each one covering a key technique and offering the scientifically literate but not necessarily expert audience a background briefing on the underlying science of a technique that is (or will be) widely used in molecular bioscience.
