Optical Tweezers: Methods and Protocols

This detailed volume explores a wide variety of techniques involving optical tweezers, a technology that has become increasingly more accessible to a broad range of researchers. Beginning with recent technical advances, the book continues by covering the application of optical tweezers to study DNA—protein interactions and DNA motors, prools to perform protein (un)folding experiments, the application of optical tweezers to study actin— and microtubule—associated motor proteins, and well as ...
