Molecular basis of the light-driven switching of the photochromic fluorescent protein Padron.
Reversibly switchable fluorescent proteins can be repeatedly photoswitched between a fluorescent and a nonfluorescent state by irradiation with the light of two different wavelengths. The molecular basis of the switching process remains a controversial topic. Padron0.9 is a reversibly switchable fluorescent protein with "positive" switching characteristics, exhibiting excellent spectroscopic pr...
متن کاملBirefringence Properties and Surface Relief Grating Formation on Methylacrylate Polymers with Photochromic Side Chains
We have studied light-induced birefringence (LIB) and surface relief grating (SRG) formation in the series of methylacrylate polymers. The effect of material structure such as length of photochromic side chain, glass transition temperature and molecular structure of azo units on LIB and SRG are studied. The optical formation of self-induced SRG on films of these materials is also presented.
متن کاملFine tuning of the rotary motion by structural modification in light-driven unidirectional molecular motors.
The introduction of bulky substituents at the stereogenic center of light-driven second-generation molecular motors results in an acceleration of the speed of rotation. This is due to a more strained structure with elongated C=C bonds and a higher energy level of the ground state relative to the transition state for the rate-limiting thermal isomerization step. Understanding the profound influe...
متن کاملA visible light driven doped TiO2 nanophotocatalyst: Preparation and characterization
A useful nanophotocatalyst (La,S-TiO2) was prepared by a sol-gel method and characterized by UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence emission spectroscopy (PL) and scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The results showed that the La,S-TiO2, which calcined at 550 °C, contained only anatase phaseand its crystal size was 23 nm...
متن کاملLight-induced cytotoxicity of a photochromic spiropyran.
In this work we present a novel water soluble spiropyran photoswitch that can be photonically activated inside live cells from a form that has no significant effect on the cellular survival to a form that induces a dramatic toxic response.
