Abstract excerpt
Red-light bacteriophytochromes regulate many physiological functions through photoisomerization of a linear tetrapyrrole chromophore. In this work, we mapped out femtosecond-resolved fluorescence spectra of the excited Pr state and observed unique active-site relaxations on the picosecond time scale with unusual spectral tuning of rises on the blue side and decays on the red side of the emission. We also observed...
