#smFRET for the win! What can be more convincing than seeing proteins in action. (Here through DNA-labelling.)

ABEL-FRET bridges the timescale gap in single-molecule measurements of the structural dynamics in the A2A adenosine receptor The functional complexity of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) arises from their structural dynamics, which span timescales from nanoseconds to minutes.

#smFRET-lovers! Imagine, you got nice burst data with freely diffusing molecules πŸ™ŒπŸ”¬

BUT
1) Immobilization does not work🧲🀬
2) Transitions are longer than diffusion time, but shorter than frametime of your TIRF⏱️

Solution: try ABEL-trap!πŸ’•
