Abstract excerpt
Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 harbors four tryptophan residues at positions 86, 139, 175, and 262. To investigate the contribution of each tryptophan residue to the total fluorescence and to reveal the mutual interactions of the tryptophan residues and interactions with the other amino acids, 15 mutants in which tryptophan residues have been replaced by phenylalanines were constructed, purified, and...
