Fluorescence quenching studies of the rat ovarian LH/hCG receptor.
Fluorescence quenching method providing information about the structure and dynamics of proteins, ligand-protein and protein-lipid interactions was used in a study of the rat ovarian LH/hCG receptor. The efficiency of two different quenchers, acrylamide and iodide, was tested. Acrylamide was significantly more effective in quenching of intrinsic fluorescence of ovarian membranes than iodide and...
متن کاملFluctuation domains in adaptive evolution.
We derive an expression for the variation between parallel trajectories in phenotypic evolution, extending the well known result that predicts the mean evolutionary path in adaptive dynamics or quantitative genetics. We show how this expression gives rise to the notion of fluctuation domains-parts of the fitness landscape where the rate of evolution is very predictable (due to fluctuation dissi...
متن کاملPicosecond fluorescence decay of tryptophans in myoglobin.
The fluorescence decay characteristics of Mb, MbCO, metMb (sperm whale), metMb (yellowfin tuna), and their apo derivatives were determined by using a picosecond streak camera and time-correlated single photon counting. The emission is dominated by tryptophans that transfer their energy to the heme on a subnanosecond time scale. Sperm whale Mb and derivatives have two tryptophans and their decay...
متن کاملChlorophyll fluorescence quenching by xanthophylls
The interactions of the xanthophylls zeaxanthin, antheraxanthin and violaxanthin with chlorophyll, which are relevant for the chlorophyll fluorescence quenching in the non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) process in green plants, are investigated by means of quantum chemical methods. In particular, we use a hybrid approach consisting of time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) and configur...
متن کاملFluorescence quenching in a perylenetetracarboxylic diimide trimer.
A perylenetetracarboxylic diimide (PDI) trimer (3) linked by a triazine ring has been prepared. The UV-vis absorption spectra together with the (1)H NMR spectra revealed that two of the three PDI subunits in the trimer presents a face-to-face stacked configuration while the third one appended acts as a monomer. There is no strong interaction between the dimer and monomer at ground state. Howeve...
