| Research Abstract |
To detect external force-induced conformational changes of proteins in living cells, I improved and evaluated the GFP-based fluorescent strain sensor. Also, toward the establishment of an imaging system suitable for the sensor, I theoretically estimated the maximum errors in the ratio values of ratiometric sensors, obtained by linear spectral unmixing, which is based on the least squares regression method. The estimation would provide an useful criterion to validate the results obtained by spectral imaging of ratiometric sensors.
