Abstract
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) has evolved into a powerful, quantitative approach for probing biomolecular structure, dynamics, and interactions. This research highlight brings together recent studies in Biophysical Journal that push the boundaries of traditional FRET. These innovations expand the spatial and temporal resolution of FRET, enabling its application to increasingly complex biological systems.
期刊介绍:
BJ publishes original articles, letters, and perspectives on important problems in modern biophysics. The papers should be written so as to be of interest to a broad community of biophysicists. BJ welcomes experimental studies that employ quantitative physical approaches for the study of biological systems, including or spanning scales from molecule to whole organism. Experimental studies of a purely descriptive or phenomenological nature, with no theoretical or mechanistic underpinning, are not appropriate for publication in BJ. Theoretical studies should offer new insights into the understanding ofexperimental results or suggest new experimentally testable hypotheses. Articles reporting significant methodological or technological advances, which have potential to open new areas of biophysical investigation, are also suitable for publication in BJ. Papers describing improvements in accuracy or speed of existing methods or extra detail within methods described previously are not suitable for BJ.
