Ultrafast proton transfer dynamics on a short H-bond in a protein were studied through the time-resolved fluorescence of the S65T/H148D green fluorescent protein (GFP) mutant. In response to the change in chromophore pK(a) upon excitation, the donor-proton-acceptor structure evolves on a sub-100 fs time scale, followed by picosecond time scale vibrational cooling and host structure reorganization.
通过研究 S65T/H148D 绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)突变体的时间分辨荧光,研究了蛋白质中短氢键上超快质子转移动力学。在对发色团 pK(a) 在激发时的变化做出响应时,供体-质子-受体结构在亚 100fs 的时间尺度上演变,随后是皮秒时间尺度的振动冷却和主体结构重组。
