• mutual interactions, the C-terminal domain is kept in close proximity to the N-terminal helix bundle, contributing significantly to the stability of the lipid-free conformation [39]. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) studies have indicated that the inter-domain distance in solution is even smaller

• , aggregation of nanoparticles, loss of transparency and luminescence quenching due to exciton energy transfer [2][7]. Several methods have been described to overcome these problems for quantum dot polymer composites. For example, Bawendi and coworkers incorporated trioctylphosphine oxide covered CdSe/ZnS QDs
