Towards Understanding the Photochemistry of tyrosine

Viac o knihe

The book explores the photochemistry of the amino acid tyrosine by examining photo-induced H-atom detachment measurements. It details a methodical approach that gradually increases system complexity, confirming that photoexcitation affects dynamics at the O-H chromophore site. This raises questions about the applicability of these findings to other amino acids and peptides. Ultimately, the research serves as a foundation for understanding how electronic structure influences the photochemistry of larger biological systems.
