Abstract:
This article describes a method, based on surface-enhanced resonance Raman (SERR) spectroscopy, for studying the reaction dynamics of photoreceptors immobilized on metal electrodes. Time resolution and fresh sample conditions are achieved by synchronizing the rotational and translational motion of a novel kinematic electrode with the duration and time delay between the pump and probe events. The power and sensitivity of the method is illustrated by studying the photocycle of the sensory photoreceptor NpSRII and its sensitivity to the applied electric field. The results are compared with time-resolved resonance Raman measurements in solution.

Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a fluorescent-protein-based detection technique used to quantify protein movement rates within the cell. This method exposes a small portion of the cell to an intense laser beam. The laser beam causes permanent photobleaching of the fluorophore-tagged proteins in the exposed region. As the bleached...
