Abstract excerpt
The Dead-End Elimination method was used to identify 40 low energy microconformations of 16 tryptophan residues in eight proteins. Single Trp-mutants of these proteins all show a double- or triple-exponential fluorescence decay. For ten of these lifetimes the corresponding rotameric state could b...
