Time-resolved fluorescence of apoferritin and its subunits.

Time-resolved fluorescence of apoferritin and its subunits.

The decay of the intrinsic fluorescence of the apoferritin polymer and its subunits has been studied by pulse and phase shift techniques. Both techniques show that the fluorescence decay of all the samples tested cannot be described by a single exponential function. The fluorescence decay data of the apoferritin subunits obtained with either technique can be fitted satisfactorily with a functio...

Time-resolved fluorescence microscopy.

In fluorescence microscopy, the fluorescence emission can be characterised not only by intensity and position, but also by lifetime, polarization and wavelength. Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) can report on photophysical events that are difficult or impossible to observe by fluorescence intensity imaging, and time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy imaging (TR-FAIM) can measure the rotation...

PICOSECOND TIME-RESOLVED FLUORESCENCE OF PHYCOBILIPROTEINS: SUBUNITS OF PHYCOCYANIN FROM Mastigocladus laminosus

The (Yand &subunits of C-phycocyanin from Mastigocladus laminosus were prepared according to revised procedures. Both subunits are isolated as dimers, which can be dissociated into monomers with detergent mixtures. The fluorescence decay kinetics are similar for the respective monomers and dimers. In no case could they be fitted by only one (o-subunit) or two exponentials (P-subunit) which are ...
