An enhanced molecular tension sensor based on bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) [PDF]

, 2019
ABSTRACT Molecular tension sensors measure piconewton forces experienced by individual proteins in the context of the cellular microenvironment. Current genetically-encoded tension sensors use FRET to report on extension of an elastic peptide encoded in a cellular protein of interest. Here we present the development and characterization

Using nanoBRET and CRISPR/Cas9 to monitor proximity to a genome-edited protein in real-time

Scientific Reports, 2017
Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) has been a vital tool for understanding G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) function. It has been used to investigate GPCR-protein and/or -ligand interactions as well as GPCR oligomerisation.

Agonist‐specific conformational dynamics at the β2‐adrenoceptor dictate allosteric modulation of Gαs signalling and bronchodilation

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 17, Page 5315-5335, September 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose β2‐adrenoceptor (β2AR) agonists are the cornerstone of asthma therapy and promote bronchodilation through Gαs signalling in airway smooth muscle (ASM), but their efficacy is limited by β‐arrestin‐mediated β2AR desensitization.
