Membrane-spanning lipids for an uncompromised monitoring of membrane fusion and intermembrane lipid transfer

A Förster resonance energy transfer-based fusion and transfer assay was developed to study, in model membranes, protein-mediated membrane fusion and intermembrane lipid transfer of fluorescent sphingolipid analogs. For this assay, it became necessary to apply labeled reporter molecules that are resi...
