Distance measurements by fluorescence energy homotransfer: evaluation in T4 lysozyme and correlation with dipolar coupling between spin labels.

Abstract excerpt

We demonstrate the feasibility and practical limitations of using steady-state anisotropy to determine distances from fluorescence homotransfer in the context of a protein of known crystal structure. Eight double mutants of T4 lysozyme spanning the distance range between 20 A and 50 A were labeled with a methanethiosulfonate derivative of fluorescein. The measured distances in liquid solution are in agreement...
