N-Acetyl-L-tryptophanamide (NATA) is an N-terminal and C-terminal blocked analogue of L-tryptophan. L-tryptophan, NATA and NATA-tyr molecules have intrinsic fluorescence which makes them useful in studies involving fluorescence and flurosence enhancement.
Evaporation of water from a 1/1 mixture of trehalose and sucrose gives rise to optically clear glasses that are transparent in the UV and visible ranges and do not crystallize when they are prepared at ambient temperatures. Two proteins, liver

The conformational isomerization dynamics of N-acetyl tryptophan methyl amide (NATMA) and N-acetyl tryptophan amide (NATA) have been studied using the methods of IR-UV hole-filling spectroscopy (HFS) and IR-induced population transfer spectroscopy (IR-PTS), which were developed for this purpose. Single conformations
Sugars are known to stabilize proteins. This study addresses questions of the nature of sugar and proteins incorporated in solid sugar films. Infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy was used to examine trehalose and sucrose films and glycerol/water solvent. Proteins and

The biotechnological and industrial uses of thermostable and organic solvent-tolerant enzymes are extensive and the investigation of such enzymes from microbiota present in oil reservoirs is a promising approach. Searching sequence databases for esterases from such microbiota, we have identified
We present a label-free detection of protein interaction between beta-galactosidase from Escherichia coli (Ecbeta-Gal) and monoclonal anti-Ecbeta-Gal using deep UV laser-based fluorescence lifetime microscopy. The native fluorescence from intrinsic tryptophan emission was observed after one-photon excitation at 266 nm. Applying
