Abstract:AbstractA cell is a densely packed conglomerate of macromolecules, where diffusion is essential for their function. The crowded conditions may affect diffusion both through hard (occluded space) and soft (weak, non-specific) interactions. Multiple-methods have been developed to measure diffusion rates at physiological protein concentrations within cells, however, each of them has its limitations. Here, we introduce Line-FRAP, a method based on measuring recovery of photobleachi… Show more
