摘要

Single-molecule FRET has been widely used for monitoring protein–nucleic acids interactions. Direct visualization of the interactions, however, often requires a site-specific labeling of the protein, which can be circuitous and inefficient. In addition, FRET is insensitive to distance changes in the 0–3-nm range. Here, we report a systematic calibration of a single molecule fluorescence assay termed protein induced fluorescence enhancement. This method circumvents protein labeling and displays a marked distance dependence below the 4-nm distance range. The enhancement of fluorescence is based on the photophysical phenomenon whereby the intensity of a fluorophore increases upon proximal binding of a protein. Our data reveals that the method can resolve as small as a single base pair distance at the extreme vicinity of the fluorophore, where the enhancement is maximized. We demonstrate the general applicability and distance sensitivity using (a) a finely spaced DNA ladder carrying a restriction site for BamHI, (b) RNA translocation by DExH enzyme RIG‐I, and (c) filament dynamics of RecA on single-stranded DNA. The high spatio-temporal resolution data and sensitivity to short distances combined with the ability to bypass protein labeling makes this assay an effective alternative or a complement to FRET.
