fotoblanqueo de fluorescencia
recuperación de fluorescencia tras fotoblanqueo por la luz
Scope note: Método utilizado para el estudio del movimiento lateral de los LÍPIDOS y PROTEÍNAS DE MEMBRANA. Una pequeña porción de la membrana celular se decolora mediante luz láser y, a continuación, se mide el tiempo necesario para recolorearla con proteínas marcadas con fluorescencia, con lo cual podemos medir la fluidez de la membrana. A partir de los datos obtenidos se puede calcular el coeficiente de difusión de una proteína o de un lípido en la membrana. (Traducción libre del original: Segen, Current Med Talk, 1995)

Scope note: A method used to study the lateral movement of MEMBRANE PROTEINS and LIPIDS. A small area of a cell membrane is bleached by laser light and the amount of time necessary for unbleached fluorescent marker-tagged proteins to diffuse back into the bleached site is a measurement of the cell membrane's fluidity. The diffusion coefficient of a protein or lipid in the membrane can be calculated from the data. (From Segen, Current Med Talk, 1995).
