The emission maximum of the fluorescence spectrum of mitochondrial F1-ATPase is shifted from 305 to 334 nm when the excitation wavelength is altered from 270 to 300 nm. This indicates that both tyrosine and tryptophan contribute to the intrinsic fluorescence of the F1-ATPase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
