A photochromic acceptor as a reversible light-driven switch in fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)
A method has been developed for the quantitative determination of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) based on the modulation of donor fluorescence upon the reversible photoconversion of a photochromic acceptor. A model system was devised, consisting of Lucifer Yellow cadaverine (LYC, dono...

A method has been developed for the quantitative determination of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) based on the modulation of donor fluorescence upon the reversible photoconversion of a photochromic acceptor.
