Abstract excerpt
We have studied the time-resolved fluorescence of three engineered Tet repressor (TetR) mutants bearing a single Trp residue at positions 162, 163, and 165 in the C-terminal part of the loop joining helices 8 and 9. Detailed analysis indicates that, at 20 degrees, the fluorescence decay of each T...
