Chapter One Examining the Molecular Mechanism of Bcl-2 Family Proteins at Membranes by Fluorescence Spectroscopy

Abstract

The Bcl-2 family proteins control apoptosis by regulation of outer mitochondrial membrane permeabilization. Studying the Bcl-2 family is particularly difficult because the functional interactions that regulate apoptosis occur at or within intracellular membranes. Compared to other biophysical methods, fluorescence spectroscopy is well suited to study membrane-bound proteins as experiments can be performed with intact membranes and at protein …
