FRET in membrane biophysics: an overview

Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), in most applications used as a spectroscopicruler, allows an easy determination of the donor-acceptor intermolecular distance.However, the situation becomes complex in membranes, since around each donor there isan ensemble of acceptors at non-correl...
