Photoswitching mechanism of a fluorescent protein revealed by time-resolved crystallography and transient absorption spectroscopy
rsEGFP2 is a reversibly photoswitchable fluorescent protein used in super-resolution light microscopy. Here the authors present the structure of an rsEGFP2 ground-state intermediate after excited state-decay that was obtained by nanosecond time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography at an X-ray...
