  1. Resonance Energy Transfer Non-Radiative Energy Transfer driven by dipole-dipole coupling • Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer • Surface Energy Transfer

  2. Multiplicity : A property of a system due to the spin, or angular momentum, of its component particles ( e.g., electrons) Multiplicity is the quantification of the amount of unpaired electron spin - Hund's rule : favors the single filling of degenerate (same energy) • Number of states with a given angular momentum : 2 S + 1, S= total spin if all electrons are paired, S=0: multiplicity =1; singlet if one unpaired electron, S = 1/2 ; doublet if two unpaired electrons, S =1 ; triplet

  3. Energy scheme used to explain the difference between fluorescence and phosphorescence Singlet state Triplet state • Phosphorescence is a process in which energy absorbed by a substance is released relatively slowly in the form of light

  4. Fluorescence One of a class of luminescence phenomena in which certain molecules may emit light with a longer wavelength than the light with which were excited k f D + hv E D* D + hv F k i D

  5. Quantum yield Q The ratio of the number of photons emitted to the number of photons absorbed • Lifetime The average time spent in the excited state before returning to the ground state

  6. Förster (or Fluorescence)ResonanceEnergy Transfer (FRET) • Non-radiative energy transfer from an energy donor to an energy acceptor • Dipole – dipole coupling • Energy transfer efficiency : • -Degree of spectral overlap between donor fluorescence emission and • acceptor absorption • - Inversely proportional to 6th power of the distance between fluorophores • -~ 10 nm

  7. Energy Level Diagram

  8. Use of FRET measurements Calculation of the distance between fluorophores • Detection of target analytes • Analysis of biomolecular interactions • Single molecule analysis • - Protein folding/unfolding • - Protein dynamics

  9. Förster distance The relationship between the transfer efficiency and the distance between the two probe (R) Ro : the Förster distance at which the energy transfer is (on average) 50%

  10. Ro can be calculated using Qd : the quantum yield of the donor, n : the refractive index of the medium (generally assumed to be 1.4 for proteins) Nav : Avogadro's number (Nav= 6.02 x 10 per mole) Kappa squared : the orientation factor J : the overlap integral

  11. Kappa squared Orientation factor , kappa squared

  12. The overlap intergral J The degree of overlap between the donor fluorescence spectrum and the acceptor absorption spectrum λ : the wavelength of the light ε(λ) : the molar extinction coefficient of the acceptor at that wavelength f : the fluorescence spectrum of the donor normalized on the wavelength scale

  13. Surface Energy Transfer • Energy transfer from a dipole to a metallic surface • Interaction of the electromagnetic field of the donor dipole with the nearly free conduction electrons of the accepting metal • Surface energy transfer efficiency : KSET = (1/τD) ( do/d)4 Yun et al., JACS, 2005, 127, 3115-3119

  14. Schematic representation of the system, which consists of a fluorescein moiety (FAM) appended to ds-DNA of length R (varying from 15 to 60bp) with a Au nanoparticle (d = 1.4 nm) appended to the other end. - The flexible C6 linker produces a cone of uncertainty ( R) for both moieties. • Addition of EcoRI (methyltransferase) bends the ds-DNA at the GAATTC site by 128o , producing a new effective distance R'. 15 bp ; 62 A 20 bp ; 96.4 A 30 bp ; 130.4 A 60 bp ; 232.4 A 10 bases per turn 3.4 A per base

  20. Experimental methods Conventional filter FRET Apply filter/emission band configurations for donor, acceptor and FRET (donor excitation and acceptor emission) to acquire single images or time series. If the donor signal decreases, acceptor and FRET signal increases. Acceptor photobleaching Apply donor/ acceptor configurations to acquire single images or time series. After some control images, acceptor (with 514 nm) is bleached. Donor signal increases after acceptor bleach

  21. Analysis of FRET Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) Information about the interactions between, and the structural states of, signaling molecules needs to be obtained as a function of space and time in a living cell. By using FLIM, the nanosecond decay kinetics of the electronic excited-state of fluorophores can be mapped spatially. Fluorescence lifetime The average amount of time that a molecule spends in the excited state upon absorption of a photon of light. Fluorescence lifetime is independent of fluorophore concentration and light-path length.

  28. Calmodulin • Calcium ions : crucial for the metabolism and physiology of eukaryotes • Regulate many cellular processes, ranging from transcription control and cell survival to neurotransmitter release and muscle function. • Calmodulin (CaM, 148 aa); a ubiquitous, calcium-binding protein ( typically binds 0, 2 or 4 Ca+2) Regulate a multitude of different protein targets, affecting many different cellular functions. • CaM : mediates processes such as inflammation, metabolism, apoptosis, muscle contraction, intracellular movement, short-term and long-term memory, nerve growth and the immune response. • In the absence of Ca+2, the two main helical domains have hydrophobic cores. On the binding of a calcium ion, conformational changes exposes hydrophobic regions which have the potential to act as docking regions for target proteins ( over 100 proteins including kinases, phosphatases etc.) In the absence of Ca+2 In the presence of Ca+2

  29. - Modified MBP fluorescent indicator. ECFP as donor was fused to the N terminus of MBP, and YFP as a FRET acceptor was fused to the C terminus. - H indicates the portion of protein functioning as a hinge between the two lobes of the MBP. - The central binding pocket of the MBP is located between the two lobes. - In the absence of maltose, the two FPs are at their maximum distance from each other and FRET is minimal. Upon binding maltose, the MBP undergoes a conformation change that brings the two FPs into close proximity and increases FRET, which can be monitored by the change in ratio of the YFP and CFP emission
