Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer (BRET)-Mediated Protein Release from Self-Illuminating Photoresponsive Biomaterials. [PDF]
Phototriggered release of various cargos, including soluble protein factors and small molecules, has the potential to correct aberrant biological events by offering spatiotemporal control over local therapeutic levels. However, the poor penetration depth of light historically limits implementation to subdermal regions, necessitating alternative methods

Luciferase-induced photoreductive uncaging of small-molecule effectors
Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) has been mostly employed in imaging applications. Here the authors use BRET to activate a ruthenium-based photocatalyst and perform a bioorthogonal chemical reaction, which can be used to uncage small ...

A bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) system: Application to interacting circadian clock proteins [PDF]
We describe a method for assaying protein interactions that offers some attractive advantages over previous assays. This method, called bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), uses a bioluminescent luciferase that is genetically fused to one candidate protein, and a green fluorescent protein mutant fused to another protein of interest ...

We present a bioluminescent diagnostic platform that integrates DNA amplification and detection in a single step. The engineering of thermostable luciferase‐intercalating dye conjugates and controlled release of caged luciferin substrates enable real‐time, detection of attomolar concentrations of viral DNA within 30 min.

Coupling optogenetic stimulation with NanoLuc-based luminescence (BRET) Ca++ sensing
The coupling of optogenetics with fluorescent Ca2+ sensors is confounded by sensitivity of optogenetic probes to light used to excite the sensors. Here the authors develop a Ca2+ sensor based on bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) that ...

An endogenous green fluorescent protein–photoprotein pair in Clytia hemisphaerica eggs shows co-targeting to mitochondria and efficient bioluminescence energy transfer [PDF]
Green fluorescent proteins (GFPs) and calcium-activated photoproteins of the aequorin/clytin family, now widely used as research tools, were originally isolated from the hydrozoan jellyfish Aequora victoria.
