Photogenerated reagents for membranes: selective labeling of intrinsic membrane proteins in the human erythrocyte membrane. by Bayley, H, Knowles, JR

“…1-[3H]Spiro[adamantane-4,4'-diazirine], a lipophilic, photoactivatable reagent designed to label those segments of intrinsic proteins that lie within the lipid bilayer of biological membranes, has been evaluated. The reagent labels the intrinsic proteins of human erythrocyte membranes far more heavily than it labels the extrinsic proteins. …”

Probing the orientational distribution of dyes in membranes through multiphoton microscopy. by Reeve, J, Corbett, A, Boczarow, I, Wilson, T, Bayley, H, Anderson, H

“…Numerous dyes are available or under development for probing the structural and functional properties of biological membranes. Exogenous chromophores adopt a range of orientations when bound to membranes, which have a drastic effect on their biophysical behavior. …”

Selective labelling of the hydrophobic segments of intrinsic membrane proteins with a lipophilic photogenerated carbene. by Goldman, D, Pober, J, White, J, Bayley, H

“…We report here that the carbene, 3H-adamantylidene (II), generated photochemically within biological membranes from 3H-adamantane diazirine (I), labels three such intrinsic membrane proteins in or close to the hydrophobic peptides that are believed to lie within the hydrocarbon region of the lipid bilayer. © 1979 Nature Publishing Group.…”
