Diffusion with Dri3
Mean and Variance
Mean Total steps N=t/Δt Displacement Δxi , i=1,2,…N Total displacement Δxtot=Δx1+Δx2+…ΔxN <Δx>=a*k+Δt + (‐a)*k‐Δt + (0)*(1‐k+Δtk‐Δt) = a(k+ ‐k‐)Δt Variance (avg. sq. displacement) var<Δx2>=a2*k+Δt + (‐a)2*k‐Δt ‐ <Δx2>= 2a2(k++k‐)Δt Since k±Δt<<1 and <Δx2><<<

Ligand ConcentraVon Profile
Uptake Rate of Ligand of Perfect Receptor
a=radius of spherical cell c0=far field concentraVon D=diffusion coefficient
dn dt = 4πDac0
Uptake Rate of Ligand with Imperfect Receptor
a=radius of spherical cell c0=far field concentraVon D=diffusion coefficient kon = finite absorpVon rate of receptor M = no. of surface bound receptors
dn dt = Mkonc(a)
For Imperfect Receptors
At the cell surface c(a) =
c0 1+ Mkon 4πDa
( )
Mkon 4πDa >>1 Mkon 4πDa <<1
When c(a)=0 When c(a)=c0
ImplicaVons
When receptor number increased, nothing added to absorb ligands What is minimal receptor number to mimic perfectly absorbing surface? Solving
dn dt = M c0 1+ Mkon 4πDa
( )
M = 4πDa kon
FRAP: Measuring GFP mobility in E. coli
Principle
- Prebleach image
- Bleach
- Postbleach image series
PreparaVons
- Collect 10 ml sterile LB tubes from CA
- Bacteria E. coli K12 with pGFP ampicillin resistant
- Grow in 50 ug/ml Ampicillin (stock 100 ug/ml)
- Monitor O.D.600nm
- At OD=0.6, add final conc. 100 uM IPTG to induce
- verexpression of GFP (stock 100 mM)
- Use cephalexin to lengthen cells 20 min before
removing culture
- E. Coli K12 with pGFP
Analysis
Alignment of the images (only necessary if the regions of interest moved over Vme). 1. Fluorescence intensity quanVficaVon (obtaining the raw data) 2. Background subtracVon 3. CorrecVons due to laser fluctuaVons, photobleaching during acquisiVon (postbleach) and total fluorescence loss caused by the bleaching step 4. NormalizaVon 5. Mobile/immobile fracVon 6. T½ hal3ime of the equilibraVon of bleached and unbleached molecules 7. TheoreVcal models to addiVonally determine binding characterisVcs of the analysed molecule
