Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To visualize chemical reactions associated with structural changes in a wide range of proteins, time-resolved resonance Raman spectroscopic methods were developed using ultrafast molecular photoswitching. The photoreaction of a small molecule, such as photoisomerization of azobenzene introduced into the protein backbone, was used for switching to form three-dimensional structures of targeted proteins. We did not obtain sufficient amount of photoswitching protein samples for spectroscopic measurements. The time-resolved spectroscopy system was improved from the existing system. We demonstrated that the performance of the spectroscopic system was sufficient to follow the chemical reactions of targeted proteins.
