2-O-alpha-Mannosylglycerate, a negatively charged osmolyte widely distributed among (hyper)thermophilic microorganisms, is known to provide notable protection to proteins against thermal denaturation. To study the mechanism responsible for protein stabilization, pico-second time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy was used to characterize the thermal unfolding

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
