Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) ⚫ Different types of strategy to capture a multiprotein complex non-radiative transfer of energy from an excited fluorophore (donor) to another fluorophore (acceptor) only occurs when molecules are in very close proximity (1-10nm) a valuable technique for studying interactions between molecules exciting the donor and then monitoring the relative donor and acceptor emissions, sequentially or simultaneously indicates when FRET has occurred can be used to determine when and where two or more molecules, often proteins, interact useful tool to quantify molecular dynamics in biophysics and biochemistry, e.g protein-protein interactions, protein-DNA interactions, and protein conformational changes GST- glutathione-S-transferase common combination of fluorophores: cyan fluorescent protein (CFP) and yellow fluorescent protein (YFP), a donor- acceptor pair is used for studying protein-protein interactions. CFP is excited, two molecules within 10 nm of each other - energy may be transferred from excited CFP YFP causing the YFP to emit yellow light, detected independently of the blue light that excited CFP nor a most signe not Thank you
