Summary
在这里，我们描述了一种高速磁镊装置，该装置以最大1.2 kHz的速率对力敏生物分子进行纳米力学测量。我们将它作为模型系统介绍其在DNA发夹和SNARE复合物中的应用，但它也适用于参与机械生物学事件的其他分子。
Abstract
单分子磁镊（MTs）已成为有力询问生物分子（如核酸和蛋白质）的强大工具，因此有望在机械生物学领域发挥作用。由于该方法通常依赖于基于图像的磁珠跟踪，因此记录和分析图像的速度限制以及磁珠的热波动长期以来一直阻碍其在观察目标分子中微小而快速的结构变化中的应用。本文介绍了高分辨率MT装置的构建和操作的详细方法，该装置可以解析生物分子及其复合物的纳米级毫秒动力学。作为应用示例，展示了DNA发夹和SNARE复合物（膜融合机制）的实验，重点是如何在存在皮克顿级力的情况下检测它们的瞬态和转变。我们预计高速MT将继续对在细胞中感知，传输和产生力的分子进行高精度纳米力学测量，从而加深我们对机械生物学的分子水平的理解。
Introduction
细胞主动感知并响应机械刺激。在这样做的过程中，许多生物分子显示出力依赖性特性，从而实现动态结构变化。广为人知的例子包括机械敏感离子通道和细胞骨架元件，它们为细胞提供来自周围环境的关键机械信息。
此外，具有独特承载力性质的分子也可以被认为是更广泛意义上的机械敏感分子。例如，核酸双链体的局部形成和熔解，以及G-四链体等高阶结构，在复制、转录、重组以及最近的基因组编辑中起着至关重要的作用。此外，参与突触通讯的一些神经元蛋白质通过产生超过典型分子间相互作用水平的物理力来执行其功能。无论研究哪个例子，以高时空精度研究所涉及的生物分子的纳米力学将被证明在揭示相关机械生物学过程的分子机制方面非常有用1，2，3。
单分子力谱方法已成为检查生物分子2，4，5，6力学性能的有力工具。它们可以在施加力的同时监测核酸和蛋白质的结构变化，从而检查力依赖性。两种众所周知的装置是光学镊子和磁镊（MTs），它们使用微米大小的珠子来操纵分子5，6，7，8。在这些平台中，聚苯乙烯（用于光学镊子）或磁珠（用于MTs）通过分子“手柄”拴在靶分子（例如核酸和蛋白质）上，通常由双链DNA（dsDNA）的短片段组成。然后移动磁珠以施加力并成像以跟踪其位置，从而报告目标分子的结构变化。光学和磁性镊子在其应用中在很大程度上可以互换，但它们控制力的方法存在重要差异。光镊本质上是将磁珠捕获到位的位置夹具，因此当目标构建体发生形状变化时，施加的力会波动;伸展增加，例如展开，松开系绳并降低张力，反之亦然。虽然可以实现主动反馈来控制光镊中的力，但相比之下，MT自然地作为力钳装置运行，利用永磁体稳定的远场磁力，也可以承受环境扰动。
尽管MT历史悠久，设计简单，但在高精度测量方面的应用仍落后于光镊，这主要是因为快速磁珠跟踪的技术挑战。然而，最近，几个小组共同领导了MT仪器2，9，10，11，12，13，14，15，16，17，18，19的硬件和软件的多方面改进。.在这项工作中，我们介绍了一个以1.2 kHz运行的这种设置的示例，并描述了如何使用它对力敏感的生物分子进行纳米力学测量。作为模型系统，我们使用DNA发夹和神经元SNARE复合物，并检查它们在皮科顿体系中的快速结构变化。DNA发夹在明确定义的力范围内表现出简单的双态跃迁20，21，因此可作为玩具模型来验证镊子设置的性能。由于SNARE蛋白组装成驱动膜融合的力敏感复合物22，因此单分子力谱14，23，24，25也对它们进行了广泛的研究。介绍了分析数据和提取热力学和动力学有用信息的标准方法。我们希望本文能够促进高精度MT在机械生物学研究中的采用，并激励读者探索自己感兴趣的力敏感系统。

Discussion
在这项工作中，我们引入了一种单分子力谱装置，可以以高时空精度观察生物分子的结构变化。所使用的高速CMOS相机以1，280 x 1，024分辨率采集1，200帧s−1 ，可实现1.2 kHz磁珠跟踪。然而，测量速度目前受到磁珠跟踪软件的限制，因此在高速测量中，ROI通常会降低到较小的区域。SLD的高功率提供明亮的照明，这对于高达几kHz带宽的快速磁珠成像至关重要。此外，光束的空间相干性在磁珠周…
