  • Title: Fluorescence of lysozyme: emissions from tryptophan residues 62 and 108 and energy migration.
    Author: Imoto T, Forster LS, Rupley JA, Tanaka F.
    Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A; 1972 May; 69(5):1151-5. PubMed ID: 4504329.
    Abstract:
    The bulk of the fluorescence of lysozyme is located in Trp 62 and Trp 108. By examination of the fluorescence of derivatives in which Trp 62 and/or Trp 108 are specifically oxidized, it has been possible to detect a pH-dependent interaction between tryptophan residues. This interaction is interpreted as energy transfer from Trp 108 to Trp 62.
