Chapter 11, Problem 11E.4ST

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Distance between the amino acids has to be determined where fluorescence quantum yield of A gets decreased by 10 per cent by the quenching of B.

Concept Introduction:

Efficiency of energy transfer can be determined in in terms of the donor– acceptor distance as follows:

  $\text{Efficiency of energy transfer, }{\eta }_T=\frac{R_0^6}{R_0^6{\text{ + R}}^6}$
