The structural dynamics underlying molecular mechanisms of light-sensitive proteins can be studied by a variety of experimental and computational biophysical techniques. Here we review recent progress in combining time-resolved crystallography at X-ray free electron lasers and quantum chemical calculations to study structural changes in photoenzymes, photosynthetic proteins, photoreceptors, and photoswitchable fluorescent proteins following photoexcitation.
可以通过多种实验和计算生物物理技术来研究光敏蛋白分子机制背后的结构动力学。在此,我们综述了结合X射线自由电子激光的时间分辨晶体学和量子化学计算来研究光酶、光合蛋白、光感受器以及光开关荧光蛋白在光激发后结构变化方面的最新进展。
