Abstract
Using the ultraviolet autofluorescence of tryptophan amino acids offers fascinating perspectives to study single proteins without the drawbacks of fluorescence labeling. However, the low autofluorescence signals have so far limited the UV detection to large proteins containing several tens of tryptophan residues. This limit is not compatible with the vast majority of proteins which contain only a few tryptophans. Here we push the sensitivity of label-free ultraviolet fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (UV-FCS) down to the single tryptophan level. Our results show how the combination of nanophotonic plasmonic antennas, antioxidants, and background reduction techniques can improve the signal-to-background ratio by over an order of magnitude and enable UV-FCS on thermonuclease proteins with a single tryptophan residue. This sensitivity breakthrough unlocks the applicability of UV-FCS technique to a broad library of label-free proteins.

Abstract
The poor photostability and low brightness of protein autofluorescence have been major limitations preventing the detection of label-free proteins at the single-molecule level. Overcoming these issues, we report here a strategy to promote the photostability of proteins and use their natural tryptophan autofluorescence in the ultraviolet (UV) for fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS). Combining enzymatic oxygen scavengers with antioxidants and triplet-state quenchers greatly promotes the protein photostability, reduces the photobleaching probability, and improves the net autofluorescence detection rate. Our results show that the underlying photochemical concepts initially derived for organic visible fluorescent dyes are quite general. Using this approach, we achieved UV fluorescence correlation spectroscopy on label-free streptavidin proteins containing only 24 tryptophan residues, 6.5× fewer than the current state-of-the-art. This strategy greatly extends the possibility of detecting single label-free proteins with the versatility of single-molecule fluorescence without requiring the presence of a potentially disturbing external fluorescent marker. It also opens new perspectives to improve the UV durability of organic devices.

Abstract
Membrane proteins mediate a number of cellular functions and are associated with several diseases and also play a crucial role in pathogenicity. Due to their importance in cellular structure and function, they are important drug targets for ~60% of drugs available in the market. Despite the technological advancement and recent successful outcomes in determining the high-resolution structural snapshot of membrane proteins, the mechanistic details underlining the complex functionalities of membrane proteins is least understood. This is largely due to lack of structural dynamics information pertaining to different functional states of membrane proteins in a membrane environment. Fluorescence spectroscopy is a widely used technique in the analysis of functionally-relevant structure and dynamics of membrane protein. This review is focused on various site-directed fluorescence (SDFL) approaches and their applications to explore structural information, conformational changes, hydration dynamics, and lipid-protein interactions of important classes of membrane proteins that include the pore-forming peptides/proteins, ion channels/transporters and G-protein coupled receptors.

Abstract
Na/K-ATPase is emerging as an important target for a variety of anticancer metal-based drugs. The interactions of Na/K-ATPase (in its E1 state) with three representative and structurally related cytotoxic gold(iii) complexes, i.e. [Au(bipy)(OH)2][PF6], bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine; [Au(pydmb-H)(CH3COO)2], pydmb-H = deprotonated 6-(1,1-dimethylbenzyl)-pyridine and [Au(bipydmb-H)(OH)][PF6], bipyc-H = deprotonated 6-(1,1-dimethylbenzyl)-2,2'-bipyridine, are investigated here in depth using a variety of spectroscopic methods, in combination with docking studies. Detailed information is gained on the conformational and structural changes experienced by the enzyme upon binding of these gold(iii) complexes. The quenching constants of intrinsic enzyme fluorescence, the fraction of Trp residues accessible to gold(iii) complexes and the reaction stoichiometries were determined in various cases. Specific hypotheses are made concerning the binding mode of these gold(iii) complexes to the enzyme and the likely binding sites. Differences in their binding behaviour toward Na/K-ATPase are explained on the ground of their distinctive structural features. The present results offer further support to the view that Na/K-ATPase may be a relevant biomolecular target for cytotoxic gold(iii) compounds of medicinal interest and may thus be involved in their overall mode of action.

Abstract
Due to the inherent difficulty in crystallizing membrane proteins, approaches based on fluorescence spectroscopy have proved useful in elucidating their conformational characteristics. The ion channel peptide gramicidin serves as an excellent prototype for monitoring membrane protein conformation and dynamics due to a number of reasons. We have analyzed conformational heterogeneity in membrane-bound gramicidin using fluorescence lifetime distribution analysis of tryptophan residues by the maximum entropy method (MEM). MEM represents a model-free and robust approach for analyzing fluorescence lifetime distribution. In this paper, we show for the first time, that fluorescence lifetime distribution analysis using MEM could be a convenient approach to monitor conformational heterogeneity in membrane-bound gramicidin in particular and membrane proteins in general. Lifetime distribution analysis by MEM therefore provides a novel window to monitor conformational transitions in membrane proteins.

Interaction of LDS-751 with the drug-binding site of P-glycoprotein: a Trp fluorescence steady-state and lifetime study. Arch Biochem Biophys 2009; 492:17-28.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) is an ATP-driven efflux pump which binds drugs within a large flexible binding pocket. Intrinsic Trp fluorescence was used to probe the interactions of LDS-751 (2-[4-(4-[dimethylamino]phenyl)-1,3-butadienyl]-3-ethylbenzo-thiazolium perchlorate) with purified P-glycoprotein, using steady-state/lifetime measurements and collisional quenching. The fast decay component of P-glycoprotein intrinsic fluorescence (tau(1)=0.97 ns) was unaffected by LDS-751 binding, while the slow decay component (tau(2)=4.02 ns) was quenched by dynamic and static mechanisms. Both the wavelength-dependence of the decay kinetics, and the time-resolved emission spectra, suggested the existence of excited-state relaxation processes within the protein matrix on the nanosecond time-scale, which were altered by LDS-751 binding. The fast decay component, which is more solvent-exposed, can be attributed to cytosolic/extracellular Trp residues, while the slow decay component likely arises from more buried transmembrane Trp residues. Interaction of a drug with the binding pocket of P-glycoprotein thus affects its molecular structure and fast dynamics.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have recently attracted significant attention from academic and industrial sources. This is because, while their vapor pressures are negligible, many of them are liquids at room temperature and can dissolve a wide range of polar and nonpolar organic and inorganic molecules. In this Account, we discuss the progress of our laboratory in understanding the dynamics, spectroscopy, and fluid dynamics of selected imidazolium-based ILs using computational and analytical tools that we have recently developed. Our results indicate that the red edge effect, the non-Newtonian behavior, and the existence of locally heterogeneous environments on a time scale relevant to chemical and photochemical reactivity are closely linked to the viscosity and highly structured character of these liquids.

Abstract
Effects of the nitric oxide donors S-nitroso-glutathione (GSNO) and S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) on Na+,K+-ATPase-rich membrane fragments purified from pig kidney outer medulla were studied using intrinsic fluorescence and ESR of spin-labeled membranes. These S-nitrosothiols differently affected the intrinsic fluorescence of Na+,K+-ATPase: GSNO induced a partial quenching, whereas SNAP produced no alteration. Quenching can be due to a direct modification of exposed tryptophan residues or to an indirect effect caused by reactions of nitrogen oxide reactive species with other residues or even with the membrane lipids. Pre-incubation of Na+,K+-ATPase with 0.4mM GSNO resulted in a modest inhibition of ATPase activity (about 24%) measured under optimal conditions. Stearic acid spin-labeled at the 14th carbon atom (14-SASL) was used to investigate membrane fluidity and the protein-lipid interface. SNAP slightly increased the mobility of bulk lipids from Na+,K+-ATPase-rich membranes, but did not change the fraction of bulk to protein-interacting lipids. Conversely, treatment with GSNO extinguished the ESR signals from 14-SASL, indicating generation of free radicals with high affinity for the lipid moiety. Our results demonstrated that membranes influence bioavailability of reactive nitrogen species and bias the activity of different S-nitrosothiols.

Abstract
The primary structure of the 142 residue Glossoscolex paulistus d-chain hemoglobin has been determined from Edman degradation data of 11 endo-Glu-C peptides and 11 endo-Lys-C peptides, plus the results of Edman degradation of the intact globin. Tryptophan occupies positions 15, 33 and 129. Homology modeling allowed us to assign the positions of these Trp residues relative to the heme and its environment. The reference coordinates of the indole rings (average coordinates of the C(varepsilon2) and C(delta2) atoms) for W15 and W129 were 16.8 and 18.5 A, respectively, from the geometric center of the heme, and W33 was located in close proximity to the heme group at a distance which was approximately half of that for W15 and W129. It was possible to identify three rotamers of W33 on the basis of electrostatic and Van der Waals energy criteria. The calculated distances from the center of the heme were 8.3, 8.4 and 9.1 A for Rot1, Rot2 and Rot3, respectively. Radiationless energy transfer from the excited indole to the heme was calculated on the basis of Förster theory. For W33, the distance was more important than the orientation factor, kappa(2), due to its proximity to the heme. However, based on kappa(2), Rot2 (kappa(2)=0.945) was more favorable for the energy transfer than Rot1 (kappa(2)=0.433) or Rot3 (kappa(2)=0.125). In contrast, despite its greater distance from the heme, the kappa(2) of W129 (2.903) established it as a candidate to be more efficiently quenched by the heme than W15 (kappa(2)=0.191). Although the Förster approach is powerful for the evaluation of the relative efficiency of quenching, it can only explain pico- and sub-nanosecond lifetimes. With the average lifetime, <tau>=3 ns, measured for the apomonomer as the reference, the lifetimes calculated for each emitter were: W33-1 (1 ps), W33-2 (2 ps), W33-3 (18 ps), W129 (100 ps), and W15 (600 ps). Experimentally, there are four components for oxymonomers at pH 7: two long ones of 4.6 and 2.1 ns, which contribute approximately 90% of the total fluorescence, one of 300 ps (4%), and the last one of 33 ps (7.4%). It is clear that the equilibrium structure resulting from homology modeling explains the sub-nanosecond fluorescence lifetimes, while the nanosecond range lifetimes require more information about the protein in solution, since there is a significant contribution of lifetimes that resemble the apo molecule.

Abstract
In 1970, three laboratories independently made a discovery that, for aromatic fluorophores embedded into different rigid and highly viscous media, the spectroscopic properties do not conform to classical rules. The fluorescence spectra can depend on excitation wavelength, and the excited-state energy transfer, if present, fails at the "red" excitation edge. These red-edge effects were related to the existence of excited-state distribution of fluorophores on their interaction energy with the environment and the slow rate of dielectric relaxation of this environment. In these conditions the site-selection can be provided by variation of the energy of illuminating light quanta, and the behaviour of selected species can be followed as a function of time and other variables. These observations found extensive application in different areas of research: colloid and polymer science, molecular biophysics, photochemistry and photobiology. In particular, they led to the development of very productive methods of studying the dynamics of dielectric relaxations in protein and membranes, using the tryptophan emission and the emission of a variety of probes. These studies were extended to the time domain with the observation of new site-selective effects in emission intensity and anisotropy decays. They stimulated the emergence and development of cryogenic energy-selective and single-molecular techniques that became valuable tools in their own right in chemistry and biophysics research. Site-selection effects were discovered for electron-transfer and proton-transfer reactions if they depended on the dynamics of the environment. This review is focused on the progress in the field of red-edge effects, their applications and prospects.

Abstract
Dielectric relaxation (DR) of acrylodan-labeled human serum albumin (HSA/AC) was studied by phase-fluorometry. A non-monoexponential behavior of both the total fluorescence--and the DR decays has been found. The protein environment of the fluorescent marker shows DR times ranging from the pico to nanosecond timescale. In fluorescence emission decays measured on the red side of the fluorescence spectrum a time constant (<10 ps) affected by a negative preexponential was found supporting the existence of DR of the excited states.

Abstract
The problem, whether excited-state energy transfer occurs between Trp residues in a multi-tryptophan proteins and if it does, what kind of changes it induces in different parameters of protein fluorescence, is currently under active investigation. In our previous paper [Biophys. Chem. 72 (1998) 265], the energy transfer was found and studied in detail for Na,K-ATPase. It was shown that this transfer influences all parameters of fluorescence emission, which is detected at site-selective conditions (red-edge of excitation, blue and red edges of emission). Present experiments were performed on unusually tryptophan-rich protein, bacterial penicillin acylase (28 Trp per dimer of 82 kDa) and were aimed to extend these observations. They demonstrate substantial heterogeneity in the environments of tryptophan residues within the protein structure. This suggests, that in the present case, if the energy transfer exists, it should be directed from short-wavelength-emitting to long-wavelength-emitting tryptophan residues and thus could be easily observed by a number of time-resolved and steady-state fluorescence techniques. Unexpectedly, no signature of inter-tryptophan energy transfer was found.

Abstract
The dielectric relaxation (DR) of human serum albumin (HSA) was studied by the method of phase-fluorometry. The protein environment of the single tryptophan in HSA shows a relatively low-speed DR of sub-ns characteristic time. This relaxation can be measured as a decaying red-shift of the time-resolved fluorescence emission spectra. The details of calculations of time-emission matrices (TEM) and comparison to the fluorescence data of the reference solution of N-acetyl-L-tryptophanamide (NATA) are also presented.
