Electronic spectroscopy and solvatochromism in the chromophore of GFP and the Y66F mutant.

Photochemical & photobiological sciences : Official journal of the European Photochemistry Association and the European Society for Photobiology - 1 Sept 2007

Webber Naomi M, Meech Stephen R

Abstract excerpt

The electronic spectra of the chromophore of the wild type green fluorescent protein, GFP, and of a mutant form Y66F GFP in which the chromophore lacks the hydroxyl group have been studied. The acid-base properties, solvatochromism, vibronic structure and edge excitation red shift have all been measured. The results are compared with the spectra of the chromophore in the protein environment. These data suggest...
