Abstract:
The use of fluorescent compounds can be a valuable tool to probe the active site of enzymes. Several examples of this approach are discussed, particularly the use of pyridoxal phosphate analogs. The study of protein-protein interactions by means of fluorescent-labeled proteins is also analyzed.
