<p>This Notebook contains a full example analysis workflow for determining the duration of binding of a protein to DNA. The binding lifetime is determined by tracking the duration of binding events of a fluorescently labeled protein on a kymograph, as illustrated in the figure below. The durations are then collected and fitted to an exponential distribution to determine the binding lifetime.

The binding lifetime is determined by tracking the duration of binding events of a fluorescently labeled protein on a kymograph, as illustrated in the figure below. The durations are then collected and fitted to an exponential distribution to determine the binding lifetime. The binding lifetime relates to the off rate as k<sub>off</sub> = 1/binding lifetime.
