Treatment is significant (P ≤ 0.01) compared with untreated cells using t test.

FRET efficiencies (mean ± SD; n = 40) for the indicated donor–acceptor antibody pairs were measured on cells that were either left untreated or pre-treated for 15 min with 1 mM puromycin or 0.2 μM pactamycin. Each value is the mean of measurements collected from four separate experiments performed on multiple days.
