Dynamics of biological processes
Our first ELIBIO paper is out
Femtosecond-to-nanosecond dynamics of flavin mononucleotide monitored by stimulated Raman spectroscopy and simulations
The research, first published on 22 Jan 2020 in Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics journal (https://doi.org/10.1039/C9CP04918E), is part of the ELIBIO programme on “Structural dynamics of biomolecular systems”. The aim of ELIBIO is to create breakthrough science in biology, chemistry, and physics across multiple length and time scales by exploring new frontiers in light and optics using unique lasers. The current results track the ultrafast excited-state dynamics of free FMN. This opens up new avenues of investigation for flavins embedded in proteins.
