A distance- and orientation-factor-dependent FRET system is a useful and attractive approach to the investigation of the conformational dynamics of nucleosomes. In this study, the application of the highly emissive nucleobase dG-tC FRET pair to 601 nucleosomes is reported. It was found that the dG-tC FRET pair was successfully incorporated to 145 bp 601 sequences, and different FRET efficiencies were obtained for the designated donor and acceptor positions in the nucleosome.
一种依赖于距离和取向因子的 FRET 系统是研究核小体构象动力学的一种有用且有吸引力的方法。在本研究中,报告了将高发光核碱基 dG-tC FRET 对应用于 601 核小体。结果发现,dG-tC FRET 对成功地掺入到 145bp 的 601 序列中,并在核小体中指定的供体和受体位置获得了不同的 FRET 效率。
