Energy transfer calculations for two C-phycocyanins based on refined x-ray crystal structure coordinates of chromophores
BILIPROTEINS FROM THE BUTTERFLY Pieris brassicae STUDIED BY TIME-RESOLVED FLUORESCENCE AND COHERENT ANTI-STOKES RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY
The fluorescence decay time of the biliverdin IX7 chromophore present in biliproteins isolated from Pieris brassicae is determined to be 44 ± 3 ps. This value suggests a cyclic helical chromophore structure. The vibrational frequencies determined by CARS-spectroscopy are compared with those of model compounds. The data confirm that the chromophore in the protein-bound state adopts a cyclic-helical, flexible conformation
Picosecond time-resolved energy transfer kinetics within C-phycocyanin and allophycocyanin aggregates
Energy transfer in 'native' and chemically modified C-phyocyanin trimers and the constituent subunits
