Summary Background The kinetochore is a multiprotein machine that couples chromosome movement to microtubule (MT) polymerization and depolymerization. It uses numerous copies of at least three MT-binding proteins to generate bidirectional movement. T

Nucleosomes sterically occlude their wrapped DNA from interacting with many large protein complexes. How proteins gain access to nucleosomal DNA target sites in vivo is not known. Outer stretches of nucleosomal DNA spontaneously unwrap and rewrap wit

Single-molecule techniques have transformed dramatically the way we think about biophysics, making it possible to address questions about the dynamics of systems in equilibrium that were practically unthinkable just a decade ago. This review focuses

Nucleosomes are the fundamental repeating unit of eukaryotic chromatin. Often large protein complexes encounter a hurdle when their target DNA sites are sterically occluded inside these nucleosomes. One of the models by which DNA sites are exposed is

The use of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) to study conformational dynamics in diffusing biopolymers requires that the contributions to the signal due to translational diffusion are separated from those due to conformational dynamics. A s

We have investigated the photophysical properties of backbone fluorescent DNA modifications with the goal of reducing many of the sources of uncertainty commonly encountered in Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) measurements. We show that backb

The sulfoindocyanine Cy3 is one of the most commonly used fluorescent dyes in the investigation of the structure and dynamics of nucleic acids by means of fluorescence methods. In this work, we report the fluorescence and photophysical properties of
