摘要: The rotational diffusion of biological macromolecules is very sensitive to shape, size, and environmental constraints. Large scale global motions occur in the μ-ms time domain, as case intrinsic membrane proteins. We describe methods for measuring motion free, liganded, cell-surface associated states. They are based on long-lived photophysical processes detection a polarized emission process: phosphorescence, delayed fluorescence, ground state depletion (monitored by fluorescence), fluorescence from transient intermediates. In every case, signals derived different combinations excitation polarization states used construct time-resolved (anisotropy) function addition primary decay curve. Thus, lifetimes correlation times can be determined, generally multi-component exponential analysis.
