Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The detection of the complex formation process between biomolecules have received much attention not only basic scientific interest but also the development of biofunctional materials. Direct observation of the dynamic behavior of the complex formation process is considered to be important for highly efficient and accurate molecular development. Conventionally, various time-resolved spectral measurements have been applied to direct observation of dynamic behavior, but circular dichroism (CD) spectral measurement can detect the dynamic behavior of structural changes with high sensitivity. How to improve the low S/N originated from small CD peak intensities drawbacks of the CD measurement system was pointed out as a serious problem to be a general and powerful measurements tools. In this study, we have proposed and demonstrated the novel paradigm utilizing the ellipticall polarized light as detection of the CD measurement system with high sensitivity and high time resolution.
