Resonance energy transfer between FMN molecules in the presence of dimers: A review

“…At high concentrations flavins form dimers. The examinations showed that FMN in aqueous solutions [62,63] and in rigid solutions (PVA) [61,37], even at extremely high concentrations, does not form aggregates higher than dimers. The absorption spectra of dimers ( Fig.…”

“…In these works the effect of dimerization on the absorption spectrum of flavins was studied. The next FMN dimerization process was examined in rigid PVA [61]. These investigations were performed very carefully and with high accuracy.…”

“…In water, the solubility of FMN reaches 8 × 10 −2 M, but in investigations of FMN in water the following range of concentrations was used: from C = 1 × 10 −5 M to 1.8 × 10 −2 M (in publications [62,64,35,68]). However, the solubility of FMN in the glycerol-water (GW) solution and in PVA is higher, so C max = [ [50][51][52] 9 × 10 −2 M was used for GW solution [64,69,70] and C max = 1 M for PVA [61,36].…”

“…The absorption spectra of pure FMN monomer ε M (λ) and dimer ε D (λ) as well as the dimerization constant K = C D /C M 2 of the dimer formation process ðM þ M ⇄ K DÞ in water and in glycerol-water solutions, and in PVA were determined based on the modified Forster and Levshin methods [59][60][61], which exploit the concentration dependence of the absorption spectra and the relations:…”
