Harnessing photoinduced electron transfer to optically determine protein sub-nanoscale atomic distances

Current Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based fluorescence spectroscopy methods are suffering from some limitations in the field of structural biology. Here, the authors present an optical approach, distance-encoding photoinduced electron transfer (DEPET), capable of the simultaneous study...
