ThiSisaFMBlankPage Preface The term “Fluorescence” was initially coined by George Gabriel Stokes in 1852, butthephenomenonhadalreadybeenrecordedforover300years.Ourknowledge of fluorescence expanded through the pioneering work of Perrin, Jablonski and Fo¨rster and Weber. This work coincided with the synthesis of organic dyes—the fluorophores. Our ways to manipulate fluorophores have grown to suit our needs and our ways to detect them have developed more than could be imagined a few yearsago.Almostalllaboratoriesutilizefluorescence,whetheritismicroscopyor asareagent...wecouldconsiderthatwenowliveinthe“AgeofFluorescence”. Fluorescence and motor proteins have a long interconnected relationship. Indeed,theprogressinfluorescencemethodshasdirectlyadvancedourknowledge ofthesemolecularmachines. Writtenbyexperts,thisbookfocusesontheapplicationoffluorescencetostudy motor proteins. It is intended for a large community of biochemists, biophysicists and cell biologists who study a diverse collection of motor proteins. It can be usedbyresearcherstogainaninsightintotheirfirstexperiments,orbyexperienced researchers who are looking to expand their research to new areas. Within each chapter you will find valuable advice for executing the experiments, along with detailedbackgroundknowledgeinordertodevelopyourownexperiments.
