Radiationless relaxation in a synthetic analogue of the green fluorescent protein chromophore
Article Abstract:
A preliminary investigation of the ultrafast relaxation dynamics and temperature-dependent fluorescence of the isolated chromophore of green fluorescent protein (GEP) is reported. The study concluded that the fluorescence intensity increases dramatically with decreasing temperature, with the main part of the increase occurring in the supercooled liquid, and continuing below the glass transition.

Excited-state dynamics in the green fluorescent protein chromophore
Article Abstract:
The ultrafast fluorescence of the HBDI chromophore of green fluorescent protein (GFP) discussed in detail as a function of solvent and emission wavelength is presented. It is concluded that the mechanism involves evolution along a vibrational coordinate, and subsequent intramolecular vibrational redistribution, and motion along the reactive coordinate leading to IC.

Ultrafast vibrational spectroscopy of the flavin chromophore
Article Abstract:
Ultrafast time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectra of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and the anion of lumiflavin ([Lf.sup.-]) are described. Ground-state recovery and excited-state decay of FAD reveal a common dominant ultrafast relaxation and a minor slower component.
