Contribution of smFRET to Chromatin Research

open access: yesBiophysica, 2023
Chromatins are structural components of chromosomes and consist of DNA and histone proteins. The structure, dynamics, and function of chromatins are important in regulating genetic processes. Several different experimental and theoretical tools have been

In-cell single-molecule FRET measurement of cytosolic RAF proteins to investigate the structural states and kinetics among them [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences
The structure of a protein is closely linked to its function. Many proteins undergo conformational changes while working in living cells. Consequently, proteins in various structural states coexist in the native cellular environment.

Single-Molecular Förster Resonance Energy Transfer Measurement on Structures and Interactions of Biomolecules

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
Single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) inherits the strategy of measurement from the effective “spectroscopic ruler” FRET and can be utilized to observe molecular behaviors with relatively high throughput at nanometer scale.

Heterogeneous migration routes of DNA triplet repeat slip-outs

open access: yesBiophysical Reports, 2022
It is unclear how the length of a repetitive DNA tract determines the onset and progression of repeat expansion diseases, but the dynamics of secondary DNA structures formed by repeat sequences are believed to play an important role.
