We have previously introduced tethered fluorophore motion (TFM), a single-molecule fluorescence technique that monitors the effective length of a biopolymer such as DNA. TFM uses the same principles as tethered particle motion (TPM) but employs a single fluorophore in place of the bead, allowing TFM to be combined with existing fluorescence techniques on a standard fluorescence microscope. TFM has...
