Abstract

The Optically Detected Magnetic Resonance spectrum of lysozyme has been shown to consist of a multiplet of narrow components, at ∼1565 MHz, 1585 MHz, and 1620 MHz. The 1585 MHz component is the strongest feature of the spectrum. This is consistent with earlier reports which apparently resolved only this principal component in lysozyme. The linewidths reported here are the narrowest ever reported for tryptophan in proteins. Using Microwave-Induced Phosphorescence techniques, the dominant 1585 MHz line is seen to be coupled to a “narrow” phosphorescence emission component at about 4134A. This component has a bandwidth of about 25A compared to 42A for the normal O-O band for tryptophan in lysozyme.
