Abstract

The fluorescence intensity of the single tyrosine residue in histone H1 increases from RTYR = 0.3 to RTYR = 1.3 as the protein undergoes a conformational change from the random coil state to a folded form. Enhanced fluorescence in the folded state has not been observed before in ap protein. Histone H5 shows no change in fluorescence intensity on folding. This is interpreted as a result of compensation between enhanced and reduced fluorescence in the three tyrosine residues.
