Abstract excerpt
The heavy metal lead (Pb) can irreversibly damage the human nervous system. To help understand Pb-induced damage, we have developed practical applications for genetically encoded Pb biosensors in cardiac cells and insect central nervous tissue. We applied the optimized fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based Pb biosensor Met-lead 1.44 M1 to two living systems to monitor the concentration of Pb: induced...
