摘要
In the post genome era proteins coming into the focus of life sciences, X-ray structure analysis and NMR spectroscopy are established methods to determine the geometry of proteins. In order to determine the molecular reaction mechanism of proteins, time-resolved FTIR (trFTIR) difference spectroscopy emerges as a valuable tool. In this Minireview we describe the trFTIR difference spectroscopy and show its application on the light-driven proton pump bacteriorhodopsin (bR), the photosynthetic reaction center and the GTPase Ras, which is crucial in signal transduction. The main principles of the technique are presented, including a summary of triggering techniques, scan modes and analysis.
