Abstract excerpt
Photoactive biological systems modify the optical properties of their chromophores, known as spectral tuning. Determining the molecular origin of spectral tuning is instrumental for understanding the function and developing applications of these biomolecules. Spectral tuning in flavin-binding fluorescent proteins (FbFPs), an emerging class of fluorescent reporters, is limited by their dependency on protein-bound...
