ABSTRACT RECENT work by Weber1–3 has shown that the ultraviolet fluorescent spectra of globular proteins differ from those predicted for the summation of the independent contributions of

their aromatic amino-acid constituents. Those examples investigated which contained tyrosine, but no tryptophan, showed a tyrosine emission spectrum, but with a reduced quantum yield. Those

containing both tyrosine and tryptophan showed an emission spectrum predominantly resembling that of tryptophan alone, with an emission maximum in the range 320–350 mµ. The present

communication will be concerned solely with proteins of the second category. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your
