Biochem/physiol Actions

N-Acetyl-L-tryptophanamide (NATA) is an N-terminal and C-terminal blocked analogue of L-tryptophan. L-tryptophan, NATA and NATA-tyr molecules have intrinsic fluorescence which makes them useful in studies involving fluorescence and flurosence enhancement.

2-O-alpha-Mannosylglycerate, a negatively charged osmolyte widely distributed among (hyper)thermophilic microorganisms, is known to provide notable protection to proteins against thermal denaturation. To study the mechanism responsible for protein stabilization, pico-second time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy was used to characterize the thermal unfolding

We present a label-free detection of protein interaction between beta-galactosidase from Escherichia coli (Ecbeta-Gal) and monoclonal anti-Ecbeta-Gal using deep UV laser-based fluorescence lifetime microscopy. The native fluorescence from intrinsic tryptophan emission was observed after one-photon excitation at 266 nm. Applying

Time-resolved fluorescence decay profiles of N-acetyl-l-tryptophanamide (NATA) and tryptophan (Trp) dipeptides of the form Trp-X and X-Trp, where X is another aminoacyl residue, have been investigated using an ultraviolet upconversion spectrophoto fluorometer with time resolution better than 350 fs, together

The dielectric relaxation (DR) of human serum albumin (HSA) was studied by the method of phase-fluorometry. The protein environment of the single tryptophan in HSA shows a relatively low-speed DR of sub-ns characteristic time. This relaxation can be measured as
