Mutant | λmax (nm) in di(C18:1)PC | Distance along bilayer normal from L69 (Å) |
---|---|---|
A20W | 329.3 ± 0.2 | 24.3 |
I23W | 325.2 ± 0.1 | 20.1 |
L30W | 327.6 ± 0.1 | 11.6 |
V31W | 323.9 ± 0.1 | 11.6 |
F34W | 326.2 ± 0.4 | 7.1 |
Wavelengths of maximum fluorescence emission intensity (λmax) were obtained by fitting fluorescence spectra recorded in di(C18:1)PC to Eq. 1 for a skewed Gaussian. Distances along the bilayer normal were calculated as described in the text.
