摘要

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a powerful tool for studying macromolecularnassemblies in vitro under near-physiological conditions. Here we present a new type of one-sample FRETn(OS-FRET) method employing a novel, nonfluorescent methanethiosulfonate-linked acceptor that can benreversibly coupled to a target sulfhydryl residue via a disulfide bond. After the quenched donor emission isnquantitated, the acceptor is removed by reduction, allowing measurement of unquenched donor emission innthe same sample. Previous one-sample methods provide distinct advantages in specific FRET applications.nThe new OS-FRET method is a generalizable spectrochemical approach that can be applied to macro-nmolecular systems lacking essential disulfide bonds and eliminates the potential systematic errors of somenearlier one-samplemethods. In addition, OS-FRET enables quantitative FRETmeasurements in virtually anynfluorescence spectrometer or detection device. Compared to conventional multisample FRET methods, OS-nFRET conserves sample, increases the precision of data, and shortens the time permeasurement. The utility ofnthe method is illustrated by its application to a protein complex of known structure formed by CheWand thenP4-P5 fragment of CheA, both from Thermotoga maritima. The findings confirm the practicality andnadvantages ofOS-FRET.Anticipated applications ofOS-FRET include analysis ofmacromolecular structure,nbinding and conformational dynamics, and high-throughput screening for interactions and inhibitors.
