“…High-resolution OTs achieve extremely high spatiotemporal resolution (~0.3 nm, 20 ms) in a range of force that can reversibly unfold a biomolecule or is generated by molecular motors (Abbondanzieri et al, 2005;Neupane et al, 2016;Moffitt et al, 2006;Zhang et al, 2013;Gao et al, 2012;Cecconi et al, 2005;Bustamante et al, 2004). Recently, OTs have been used to test membrane binding of the vesicle tethering complex EEA1 (Murray et al, 2016). However, to our knowledge, OTs have not been applied to measure both the energy and the detailed kinetics of protein-membrane interactions.…”
