We studied the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) efficiency of different donor-acceptor labeled model DNA systems in aqueous solution from ensemble measurements and at the single molecule level. The donor dyes: tetramethylrhodamine (TMR); rhodamine 6G (R6G); and a carbocyanine dye (Cy3) were covalently attached to the 5'-end of a 40-mer model oligonucleotide. The acceptor dyes, a carbocyanine dye (Cy5), and a rhodamine derivative (JA133) were attached at modified thymidine bases in the complementary DNA strand with donor-acceptor distances of 5, 15, 25 and 35 DNA-bases, respectively. Anisotropy measurements demonstrate that none of the dyes can be observed as a free rotor; especially in the 5-bp constructs the dyes exhibit relatively high anisotropy values. Nevertheless, the dyes change their conformation with respect to the oligonucleotide on a slower time scale in the millisecond range. This results in a dynamic inhomogeneous distribution of donor/acceptor (D/A) distances and orientations. FRET efficiencies have been calculated from donor and acceptor fluorescence intensity as well as from time-resolved fluorescence measurements of the donor fluorescence decay. Dependent on the D/A pair and distance, additional strong fluorescence quenching of the donor is observed, which simulates lower FRET efficiencies at short distances and higher efficiencies at longer distances. On the other hand, spFRET measurements revealed subpopulations that exhibit the expected FRET efficiency, even at short D/A distances. In addition, the measured acceptor fluorescence intensities and lifetimes also partly show fluorescence quenching effects independent of the excitation wavelength, i.e. either directly excited or via FRET. These effects strongly depend on the D/A distance and the dyes used, respectively. The obtained data demonstrate that besides dimerization at short D/A distances, an electron transfer process between the acceptor Cy5 and rhodamine donors has to be taken into account. To explain deviations from FRET theory even at larger D/A distances, we suggest that the pi-stack of the DNA double helix mediates electron transfer from the donor to the acceptor, even over distances as long as 35 base pairs. Our data show that FRET experiments at the single molecule level are rather suited to resolve fluorescent subpopulations in heterogeneous mixture, information about strongly quenched subpopulations gets lost.  相似文献

M-DNA is a complex of metal ions such as Zn(2+) with duplex DNA. Previous results showed that the fluorescence of a donor fluorophore was quenched when an acceptor fluorophore was placed at the opposite end of a short M-DNA duplex. In order to investigate further the molecular wire behaviour of M-DNA, 30-mer duplexes were constructed with fluorescein as donor and rhodamine, pyrene and the cyanine dyes, Cy5 and Cy5.5 as acceptors. Good quenching was observed in all cases even though the efficiency of resonance energy transfer was calculated to be < 5%. The distance dependence of quenching was investigated by preparing doubly-labelled duplexes ranging in length from 20 to 1,000 base pairs. Upon formation of M-DNA significant quenching of the fluorescence of the donor fluorophore was observed in duplexes up to 500 base pairs in length. The amount of quenching decreased with increasing length of the duplexes with a shallow distance dependence. The results are consistent with an electron transfer mechanism in which the electron hops between metal centers. This process can occur efficiently over long distances.  相似文献

A fluorescence resonance energy-transfer (FRET) sensing system for maltose based on E. coli maltose binding protein (MBP) is demonstrated. The FRET donor portion of the sensing system consists of MBP modified with long wavelength-excitable cyanine dyes (Cy3 or Cy3.5). The novel acceptor portion of the sensor consists of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) modified with either the cyanine dye Cy5 or the dark quencher QSY9. Binding of the modified beta-CD to dye-conjugated MBP results in assembly of the FRET complex. Added maltose displaces the beta-CD-dye adduct and disrupts the FRET complex, resulting in a direct change in fluorescence of the donor moiety. In the use of these FRET pairs, MBP dissociation values for maltose were estimated (0.14-2.90 microM). Maltose limits of detection were in the 50-100 nm range.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Flow cytometric fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FCET) is an efficient method to map associations between biomolecules because of its high sensitivity to changes in molecular distances in the range of 1-10 nm. However, the requirement for a dual-laser instrument and the need for a relatively high signal-to-noise system (i.e., high expression level of the molecules) pose limitations to a wide application of the method. METHODS: Antibodies conjugated to cyanines 3 and 5 (Cy3 and Cy5) were used to label membrane proteins on the cell surface. FCET measurements were made on a widely used benchtop dual-laser flow cytometer, the FACSCalibur, by using cell-by-cell analysis of energy transfer efficiency.ResultsTo increase the accuracy of FCET measurements, we applied a long wavelength donor-acceptor pair, Cy3 and Cy5, which beneficially affected the signal-to-noise ratio in comparison with the classic pair of fluorescein and rhodamine. A new algorithm for cell-by-cell correction of autofluorescence further improved the sensitivity of the technique; cell subpopulations with only slightly different FCET efficiencies could be identified. The new FCET technique was tested on various direct and indirect immunofluorescent labeling strategies. The highest FCET values could be measured when applying direct labeling on both (donor and acceptor) sides. Upon increasing the complexity of the labeling scheme by introducing secondary antibodies, we detected a decrease in the energy transfer efficiency. CONCLUSIONS: We developed a new FCET protocol by applying long wavelength excitation and detection of fluorescence and by refining autofluorescence correction. The increased accuracy of the new method makes cells with low receptor expression amenable to FCET investigation, and the new approach can be implemented easily on a commercially available dual-laser flow cytometer, such as a FACSCalibur.  相似文献

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) detects the proximity of fluorescently labeled molecules over distances >100 A. When performed in a fluorescence microscope, FRET can be used to map protein-protein interactions in vivo. We here describe a FRET microscopy method that can be used to determine whether proteins that are colocalized at the level of light microscopy interact with one another. This method can be implemented using digital microscopy systems such as a confocal microscope or a wide-field fluorescence microscope coupled to a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. It is readily applied to samples prepared with standard immunofluorescence techniques using antibodies labeled with fluorescent dyes that act as a donor and acceptor pair for FRET. Energy transfer efficiencies are quantified based on the release of quenching of donor fluorescence due to FRET, measured by comparing the intensity of donor fluorescence before and after complete photobleaching of the acceptor. As described, this method uses Cy3 and Cy5 as the donor and acceptor fluorophores, but can be adapted for other FRET pairs including cyan fluorescent protein and yellow fluorescent protein.  相似文献

We report the design, synthesis, and characterization of molecular beacons (MB) consisting of three distinct fluorophores, 6-carboxyfluorescein (Fam), N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-6-carboxyrhodamine (Tam), and Cyanine-5 (Cy5). The primary light absorber/energy donor (Fam) is located on one terminus of the MB, whereas the primary energy acceptor/secondary donor (Tam) and secondary acceptor (Cy5) are located at the other terminus of the MB. In the absence of target DNA or RNA, the MB exists in the stem-closed form. Excitation of Fam initiates an energy transfer cascade from Fam to Tam and further to Cy5 generating unique fluorescence signatures defined as the ratio of the emission from each of the three fluorophores. This energy transfer cascade was investigated in detail by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, as well as fluorescence depolarization studies. In the presence of the complementary target DNA, the MB opened efficiently and hybridized with the target separating Fam and Tam by a large distance, so that energy transfer from Fam to Tam was blocked in the stem-open form. This opening of the MB generates a "bar code" fluorescence signature, which is different from the signature of the stem-closed MB. The fluorescence signature of this combinatorial fluorescence energy transfer MB can be tuned by variation of the spacer length between the individual fluorophores.  相似文献

Lanthanide-doped nanoparticles are of considerable interest for biodetection and bioimaging techniques thanks to their unique chemical and optical properties. As a sensitive luminescence material, they can be used as (bio) probes in Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) where trivalent lanthanide ions (La3+) act as energy donors. In this paper we present an efficient method to transfer ultrasmall (ca. 8 nm) NaYF4 nanoparticles dispersed in organic solvent to an aqueous solution via oxidation of the oleic acid ligand. Nanoparticles were then functionalized with single strand DNA oligomers (ssDNA) by inducing covalent bonds between surface carboxylic groups and a 5’ amine modified-ssDNA. Hybridization with the 5’ fluorophore (Cy5) modified complementary ssDNA strand demonstrated the specificity of binding and allowed the fine control over the distance between Eu3+ ions doped nanoparticle and the fluorophore by varying the number of the dsDNA base pairs. First, our results confirmed nonradiative resonance energy transfer and demonstrate the dependence of its efficiency on the distance between the donor (Eu3+) and the acceptor (Cy5) with sensitivity at a nanometre scale.  相似文献

Two types of reporters for optical sensing of NF-kappaB p50 protein-oligodeoxyribonucleotide (ODN) duplex interactions were designed and compared in vitro. The reporters were based on the effect of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the pair donor Cy5.5 near-infrared (NIR) fluorochrome and either 800CW emitting fluorescence dye acceptor (800CW-Cy), or a nonemitting QSY 21 dye quencher (QSY-Cy). The donor and the acceptor dyes were covalently linked to the complementary oligonucleotides, respectively: Cy dye was conjugated to 3'-thiol, whereas 800CW or QSY21 were conjugated to a hydrophilic internucleoside phosphate amino linker. The reporters were tested initially using recombinant NF-kappaB p50 protein binding assays. Both reporters were binding p50 protein, which protected oligonucleotide duplex from degradation in the presence of exonuclease.The incubation of 800CW-Cy reporter in the presence of control or IL-1beta treated human endothelial cells showed the uptake of the reporter in the cytoplasm and the nucleus. The measurement of NIR fluorescence ratio (i.e. Cy5.5/800CW) showed a partial loss of FRET and the increased Cy5.5 fluorescence in nontreated, control cells. Thus, the specific p50 binding to ODN duplex reporters affected the donor-acceptor fluorochrome pair. NF-kappaB p50 exhibited the protective effect on FRET between NIR fluorochromes linked to the complementary strands of the reporter duplex.  相似文献

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) measured at the single-molecule level can reveal conformational changes of biomolecules and intermolecular interactions in physiologically relevant conditions. Thus far single-molecule FRET has been measured only between two fluorophores. However, for many complex systems, the ability to observe changes in more than one distance is desired and FRET measured between three spectrally distinct fluorophores can provide a more complete picture. We have extended the single-molecule FRET technique to three colors, using the DNA four-way (Holliday) junction as a model system that undergoes two-state conformational fluctuations. By labeling three arms of the junction with Cy3 (donor), Cy5 (acceptor 1), and Cy5.5 (acceptor 2), distance changes between the donor and acceptor 1, and between the donor and acceptor 2, can be measured simultaneously. Thus we are able to show that the acceptor 1 arm moves away from the donor arm at the same time as the acceptor 2 arm approaches the donor arm, and vice versa, marking the first example of observing correlated movements of two different segments of a single molecule. Our data further suggest that Holliday junction does not spend measurable time with any of the helices unstacked, and that the parallel conformations are not populated to a detectable degree.  相似文献

G Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCR) can form dimers or higher ordered oligomers, the process of which can remarkably influence the physiological and pharmacological function of these receptors. Quantitative Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer (qBRET) measurements are the gold standards to prove the direct physical interaction between the protomers of presumed GPCR dimers. For the correct interpretation of these experiments, the expression of the energy donor Renilla luciferase labeled receptor has to be maintained constant, which is hard to achieve in expression systems. To analyze the effects of non-constant donor expression on qBRET curves, we performed Monte Carlo simulations. Our results show that the decrease of donor expression can lead to saturation qBRET curves even if the interaction between donor and acceptor labeled receptors is non-specific leading to false interpretation of the dimerization state. We suggest here a new approach to the analysis of qBRET data, when the BRET ratio is plotted as a function of the acceptor labeled receptor expression at various donor receptor expression levels. With this method, we were able to distinguish between dimerization and non-specific interaction when the results of classical qBRET experiments were ambiguous. The simulation results were confirmed experimentally using rapamycin inducible heterodimerization system. We used this new method to investigate the dimerization of various GPCRs, and our data have confirmed the homodimerization of V2 vasopressin and CaSR calcium sensing receptors, whereas our data argue against the heterodimerization of these receptors with other studied GPCRs, including type I and II angiotensin, β2 adrenergic and CB1 cannabinoid receptors.  相似文献

We describe a quantitative method for detecting RNA alternative splicing variants that combines in situ hybridization of fluorescently labeled peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes with confocal microscopy Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET). The use of PNA probes complementary to sequences flanking a given splice junction allows to specifically quantify, within the cell, the RNA isoform generating such splice junction by FRET measure. As a proof of concept we analyzed two alternative splicing events originating from lymphocyte antigen 6 (LY6) complex, locus G5B (LY6G5B) pre-mRNA. These are characterized by the removal of the first intron (Fully Spliced Isoform, FSI) or by retention of such intron (Intron-Retained Isoform, IRI). The use of PNA probe pairs labeled with donor (Cy3) and acceptor (Cy5) fluorophores, suitable to FRET, flanking FSI and IRI specific splice junctions specifically detected both mRNA isoforms in HeLa cells. We have observed that the method works efficiently with probes 5–11 nt apart. The data supports that this FRET-based PNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (FP–FISH) method offers a conceptually new approach for characterizing at the subcellular level not only splice variant isoform structure, location and dynamics but also potentially a wide variety of close range RNA–RNA interactions.  相似文献

We report on a novel technique to develop an optical immunosensor based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). IgG antibodies were labeled with acceptor fluorophores while one of three carrier molecules (protein A, protein G, or F(ab')2 fragment) was labeled with donor fluorophores. The carrier molecule was incubated with the antibody to allow specific binding to the Fc portion. The labeled antibody-protein complex was then exposed to specific and nonspecific antigens, and experiments were designed to determine the 'in solution' response. The paper reports the results of three different donor-acceptor FRET pairs, fluorescein isothiocyanate/tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate, Texas Red/Cy5, and Alexa Fluor 546/Alexa Fluor 594. The effects of the fluorophore to protein conjugation ratio (F/P ratio) and acceptor to donor fluorophore ratios between the antibody and protein (A/D ratio) were examined. In the presence of specific antigens, the antibodies underwent a conformational change, resulting in an energy transfer from the donor to the acceptor fluorophore as measured by a change in fluorescence. The non-specific antigens elicited little or no changes. The Alexa Fluor FRET pair demonstrated the largest change in fluorescence, resulting in a 35% change. The F/P and A/D ratio will affect the efficiency of energy transfer, but there exists a suitable range of A/D and F/P ratios for the FRET pairs. The feasibility of the FRET immunosensor technique was established; however, it will be necessary to immobilize the complexes onto optical substrates so that consistent trends can be obtained that would allow calibration plots.  相似文献

A novel F?rster donor-acceptor dye pair for an immunoassay based on resonance energy transfer (RET) is characterized with respect to its photophysical properties. As donor and acceptor, we chose the long-wavelength excitable cyanine dyes Cy5 and Cy5.5, respectively. Due to the perfect spectral overlap, an exceptionally high R(0) value of 68.7 A is obtained in solution. For biochemical applications, antibodies (IgG) are labeled with Cy5, while a tracer for competitive binding is synthesized by labeling bovine serum albumin (BSA) with an analyte derivative and Cy5.5. Binding the dyes to proteins at a low dye/protein ratio increases the fluorescence lifetimes and quantum yields, leading to an enhanced R(0) value of 85.2 A. At higher dye/protein ratios, the formation of nonfluorescent dimeric species causes a decrease in the fluorescence lifetime and quantum yield due to RET from monomeric dyes to dimers within one protein molecule. The F?rster distances could be calculated using the dimer absorption spectra to 83.9 and 83.6 A for Cy5 and Cy5.5, respectively. Upon binding of the Cy5-labeled IgG to the tracer, efficient quenching of Cy5 fluorescence is observed. Steady-state and time-resolved measurements reveal that approximately 50% of the quenching results in F?rster-type RET, while the residual quenching effect is caused by static quenching processes. The applicability of this dye pair is demonstrated in a homogeneous competitive immunoassay for the pesticide simazine.  相似文献

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is an important source of long-range distance information in macromolecules. However, extracting maximum information requires knowledge of fluorophore, donor and acceptor, positions on the macromolecule. We previously determined the structure of the indocarbocyanine fluorophores Cy3 and Cy5 attached to DNA via three-carbon atom tethers, showing that they stacked onto the end of the helix in a manner similar to an additional basepair. Our recent FRET study has suggested that when they are attached via a longer 13-atom tether, these fluorophores are repositioned relative to the terminal basepair by a rotation of ~30°, while remaining stacked. In this study, we have used NMR to extend our structural understanding to the commonly used fluorophore sulfoindocarbocyanine-3 (sCy3) attached to the 5'-terminus of the double-helical DNA via a 13-atom flexible tether (L13). We find that L13-sCy3 remains predominantly stacked onto the end of the duplex, but adopts a significantly different conformation, from that of either Cy3 or Cy5 attached by 3-atom tethers, with the long axes of the fluorophore and the terminal basepair approximately parallel. This result is in close agreement with our FRET data, supporting the contention that FRET data can be used to provide orientational information.  相似文献

Relationship of donor and acceptor fluorescence anisotropies as well as efficiency of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) has been investigated in a confocal microscope in the context of FRET systems comprised of donor and acceptor-labeled MHCI and MHCII receptors on the surface of Kit-225 K6 human T-cells. The measurements have been carried out in a 2-laser, 5-signal platform where the total donor fluorescence intensity and 2 acceptor fluorescence intensities with their anisotropies – one at the donor's excitation wavelength, the other at the acceptor's excitation wavelength – have been detected. This configuration enabled the determination of FRET efficiency and correlating it with the two acceptor fluorescence anisotropies as a kind of calibration. Estimations for the FRET-enhanced donor fluorescence anisotropy, the directly excited acceptor fluorescence anisotropy, and the fluorescence anisotropy of sensitized emission have been obtained. Procedures for determining FRET by measuring only the total donor intensity and the acceptor intensity and its anisotropy, or two acceptor intensities and their anisotropies have been elaborated, the errors of which have been estimated based on the fluorescence anisotropy values obtained in the calibration with the method of flow cytometric energy transfer (FCET).The combined detection of the donor and acceptor fluorescence anisotropies enabled also the determination of the lower and upper limits of the orientation factor for FRET (κ2). An increase in range for κ2 with increasing FRET efficiency has been observed, with average κ2 values different from the dynamic random average of 2/3. These observations call for the need of κ2 determination in proximity measurements, where the donor and acceptor orientations are not predictable.An increasing range of κ2 with increasing intermolecular proximity of the MHCI and MHCII receptors has been observed. This indicates that molecular flexibility in the clusters of the MHCI and MHCII receptors reduces with increasing cluster density, i.e. a “fluidity gradient” exists in the clusters. More specifically, the local density dependent flexibility can also be taken as a direct proof for that the association of these receptors is non-random, but mediated by some type of physical interaction, a finding as a benefit of FRET detection by polarization spectroscopy.Two new quantities – the quenched donor fluorescence anisotropy and a fluorescence anisotropy analogue, the “dissymmetry index” of the polarized FRET efficiency components – have also been introduced for the characterization of the orientational dynamics of the excited state during FRET.  相似文献

Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) when paired with Förster resonance energy transfer (FLIM-FRET) enables the monitoring of nanoscale interactions in living biological samples. FLIM-FRET model-based estimation methods allow the quantitative retrieval of parameters such as the quenched (interacting) and unquenched (non-interacting) fractional populations of the donor fluorophore and/or the distance of the interactions. The quantitative accuracy of such model-based approaches is dependent on multiple factors such as signal-to-noise ratio and number of temporal points acquired when sampling the fluorescence decays. For high-throughput or in vivo applications of FLIM-FRET, it is desirable to acquire a limited number of temporal points for fast acquisition times. Yet, it is critical to acquire temporal data sets with sufficient information content to allow for accurate FLIM-FRET parameter estimation. Herein, an optimal experimental design approach based upon sensitivity analysis is presented in order to identify the time points that provide the best quantitative estimates of the parameters for a determined number of temporal sampling points. More specifically, the D-optimality criterion is employed to identify, within a sparse temporal data set, the set of time points leading to optimal estimations of the quenched fractional population of the donor fluorophore. Overall, a reduced set of 10 time points (compared to a typical complete set of 90 time points) was identified to have minimal impact on parameter estimation accuracy (≈5%), with in silico and in vivo experiment validations. This reduction of the number of needed time points by almost an order of magnitude allows the use of FLIM-FRET for certain high-throughput applications which would be infeasible if the entire number of time sampling points were used.  相似文献

We previously showed that a specific kind of mRNA (c-fos) was detected in a living cell under a microscope by introducing two fluorescently labeled oligodeoxynucleotides, each labeled with donor or acceptor, into the cytoplasm, making them hybridize to adjacent locations on c-fos mRNA, and taking images of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) (A. Tsuji, H. Koshimoto, Y. Sato, M. Hirano. Y. Sei-Iida, S. Kondo, and K. Ishibashi, 2000, Biophys. J. 78:3260-3274). On the formed hybrid, the distance between donor and acceptor becomes close and FRET occurs. To observe small numbers of mRNA in living cells using this method, it is required that FRET fluorescence of hybrid must be distinguished from fluorescence of excess amounts of non-hybridizing probes and from cell autofluorescence. To meet these requirements, we developed a time-resolved method using acceptor fluorescence decays. When a combination of a donor having longer fluorescence lifetime and an acceptor having shorter lifetime is used, the measured fluorescence decays of acceptors under FRET becomes slower than the acceptor fluorescence decay with direct excitation. A combination of Bodipy493/503 and Cy5 was selected as donor and acceptor. When the formed hybrid had a configuration where the target RNA has no single-strand part between the two fluorophores, the acceptor fluorescence of hybrid had a sufficiently longer delay to detect fluorescence of hybrid in the presence of excess amounts of non-hybridizing probes. Spatial separation of 10-12 bases between two fluorophores on the hybrid is also required. The decay is also much slower than cell autofluorescence, and smaller numbers of hybrid were detected with less interference of cell autofluorescence in the cytoplasm of living cells under a time-resolved fluorescence microscope with a time-gated function equipped camera. The present method will be useful when observing induced expressions of mRNA in living cells.  相似文献

Here we describe the design and construction of an imaging construct with high bioluminescent resonance energy transfer (BRET) efficiency that is composed of multiple quantum dots (QDs; λem = 655 nm) self-assembled onto a bioluminescent protein, Renilla luciferase (Rluc). This is facilitated by the streptavidin–biotin interaction, allowing the facile formation of a hybrid-imaging construct (HIC) comprising up to six QDs (acceptor) grafted onto a light-emitting Rluc (donor) core. The resulting assembly of multiple acceptors surrounding a donor permits this construct to exhibit high resonance energy transfer efficiency (∼64.8%). The HIC was characterized using fluorescence excitation anisotropy measurements and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. To demonstrate the application of our construct, a generation-5 (G5) polyamidoamine dendrimer (PAMAM) nanocarrier was loaded with our HIC for in vitro and in vivo imaging. We envision that this design of multiple acceptors and bioluminescent donor will lead to the development of new BRET-based systems useful in sensing, imaging, and other bioanalytical applications.  相似文献

Epac-based FRET sensors have been widely used for the detection of cAMP concentrations in living cells. Originally developed by us as well as others, we have since then reported several important optimizations that make these sensors favourite among many cell biologists. We here report cloning and characterization of our fourth generation of cAMP sensors, which feature outstanding photostability, dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio. The design is based on mTurquoise2, currently the brightest and most bleaching-resistant donor, and a new acceptor cassette that consists of a tandem of two cp173Venus fluorophores. We also report variants with a single point mutation, Q270E, in the Epac moiety, which decreases the dissociation constant of cAMP from 9.5 to 4 μM, and thus increases the affinity ~ 2.5-fold. Finally, we also prepared and characterized dedicated variants with non-emitting (dark) acceptors for single-wavelength FLIM acquisition that display an exceptional near-doubling of fluorescence lifetime upon saturation of cAMP levels. We believe this generation of cAMP outperforms all other sensors and therefore recommend these sensors for all future studies.  相似文献
