Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope-Based Fluorescence Recovery after Photobleaching (FRAP) Models for Pure Diffusion and Binding Diffusing Kinetics on Various Geometries in 1-3 Spatial Dimensions
Abstract:Diffusion and binding-diffusion are ubiquitous processes with importance across many scales of biology. Many cellular events depend strongly on the diffusivity and binding rates of proteins and other biomolecules, which are characterized by a diffusion coefficient (D) and binding rate constants (k on , k off ). Therefore, determining the kinetic rate constants such as diffusion coefficients or binding rate constants of proteins is important to understand cell function.FRAP has been a useful technique for study… Show more
