Configurational fluctuations and flavin-substrate interactions in the flavoenzyme ThyX studied by time- and spectrally resolved fluorescence

Femtosecond-resolved fluorescence of bacterial thymidilate synthase using a Kerr-gate based setup identifies a close-by tyrosine involved in flavin fluorescence quenching, shows that the substrate dUMP acts as a strong quencher itself and highlights functional configurational flexibility
