Picosecond 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 کاملUltrafast dynamics of myoglobin without the distal histidine: stimulated vibrational echo experiments and molecular dynamics simulations.
Ultrafast protein dynamics of the CO adduct of a myoglobin mutant with the polar distal histidine replaced by a nonpolar valine (H64V) have been investigated by spectrally resolved infrared stimulated vibrational echo experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. In aqueous solution at room temperature, the vibrational dephasing rate of CO in the mutant is reduced by approximately 50% re...
متن کاملDynamics of fluorescence polarization in macromolecules.
Reexamination of the theory of fluorescence time dependence owing to rotational diffusion of rigid macromolecules reveals deficiencies or hidden restrictions in each of the previous treatments. The correct master equation has five exponential decay terms, with preexponential factors that depend upon the diffusion constants and, in a completely symmetrical fashion, upon the orientations of absor...
متن کاملMyoglobin-CO substate structures and dynamics: multidimensional vibrational echoes and molecular dynamics simulations.
Spectrally resolved infrared stimulated vibrational echo data were obtained for sperm whale carbonmonoxymyoglobin (MbCO) at 300 K. The measured dephasing dynamics of the CO ligand are in agreement with dephasing dynamics calculated with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for MbCO with the residue histidine-64 (His64) having its imidazole epsilon nitrogen protonated (N(epsilon)-H). The two conf...

امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...
