With tlie development of femtosecond laser teclmology it has become possible to observe in resonance energy transfer some apparent manifestations of tire coupling between nuclear and electronic motions. For example in photosyntlietic preparations such as light-harvesting antennae and reaction centres [32, 46, 47 and 49] such observations are believed to result eitlier from oscillations between tire coupled excitonic levels of dimers (generally multimers), or tire nuclear motions of tire cliromophores. This is a subject tliat is still very much open to debate, and for extensive discussion we refer tire reader for example to [46, 47, 50, 51 and 55]. A simplified view of tire subject can nonetlieless be obtained from tire following semiclassical picture.

C. Resonance energy transfer. The excitation energy can be transferred by resonance energy transfer, a radiationless process, to a neighboring molecule if their energy level difference corresponds to the quantum of excitation energy. In this process, the quantum, or so-called exciton, is transferred.

Fig. 4.1.17 Graphic illustration of Forster-type resonance energy transfer from aequorin to Aequorea GFP. In the vessel at left, a solution contains the molecules of aequorin and GFP randomly distributed in a low ionic strength buffer. The vessel at right contains a solution identical with the left, except that it contains some particles of DEAE cellulose. In the solution at right, the molecules of aequorin and GFP are coadsorbed on the surface of DEAE particles. Upon an addition of Ca2+, the solution at left emits blue light from aequorin (Xmax 465 nm), and the solution at right emits green light from GFP (Xmax 509 nm).

More recently, the method of scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) has been applied to LB films of phospholipids and has revealed submicron-domain structures [55-59]. The method involves scanning a fiber-optic tip over a surface in much the same way an AFM tip is scanned over a surface. In principle, other optical experiments could be combined with the SNOM, snch as resonance energy transfer, time-resolved flnorescence, and surface plasmon resonance. It is likely that spectroscopic investigation of snbmicron domains in LB films nsing these principles will be pnrsned extensively.

The intramolecular distances measured at room temperature with the AEDANS FITC pair were similar in the Ca2Ei and E2V states [297]. Ca and lanthanides are expected to stabilize the Ej conformation of the Ca -ATPase, since they induce a similar crystal form of Ca -ATPase [119,157] and have similar effects on the tryptophan fluorescence [151] and on the trypsin sensitivity of Ca -ATPase [119,120]. It is also likely that the vanadate-stabilized E2V state is similar to the p2 P state stabilized by Pi [418]. Therefore the absence of significant difference in the resonance energy transfer distances between the two states implies that the structural differences between the two conformations at sites recorded by currently available probes, fall within the considerable error of resonance energy transfer measurements. Even if these distances would vary by as much as 5 A the difference between the two conformations could not be established reliably.

We have been developing methods to prepare and characterize supported attune catalysts nsing readily available commercial snpports. One potential means of depositing amines on oxide surfaces is shown in Scheme 38.1, in which the micelle s role is to space the amines on the snrface. Cnrrent work is directed towards characterizing these samples, particularly applying flnorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) techniques. 

When the proteins are in close proximity the Europium-cryptate emission can be absorbed by the acceptor (such as allophycocyanin [APC], or XL) which emits at a higher wavelength. When the two proteins are far apart, no fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) occurs.
