We further demonstrate labeling histidine-tagged proteins noncovalently with Tris-nitrilotriacetic acid (Tris-NTA)-conjugated dyes to achieve single molecule detection. We combine these methods to colocalize the mismatch repair protein MutS alpha. on DNA while monitoring MutS alpha-induced DNA bending using Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and to monitor assembly of membrane-tethered SNARE protein complexes. |
