  1. τD indicates the donor’s lifetime in the absence of the quencher ± SD, τDA indicates the donor’s lifetime in the presence of the quencher ± SD. Asterisks indicate combinations whose lifetimes were measured both on Golgi and in the cytosol. FRET efficiencies (EFRET) and estimated intermolecular distances (r) were calculated according to Eqs. (1) and (2) described in the Methods section.
