III - IIII + 2 IAnisotropy, A =
Is measured as a fraction of the total fluorescence and is independentfrom the fluorophore concentration
Anisotropy can be measured in steady-state and in time-resolved modes. Depolarization will occur as molecules rotate and this canbe used to learn about molecular motion and interactions
Depolarization and molecular motion
Protein + ligand Protein-ligand
Rotational relaxation of protein ~ 10-100 ns
Fluorescent, small molecule ligand ~ relaxation < 10 ns
Time-averaged anisotropy of ligand will increase as itbinds to the protein.

Fluorescence quenchingDynamic and static quenching
Dynamic quenching involves collisions with quencher molecules todepopulate the excited state.
Static quenching involves complex formation between the quencher and fluorophore prior to excitation.
Recall,ΦF = kF / (kF + ∑ki) = τ / τF
Quantum yield in the presence of quencher Q(ΦF)Q = kF / (kF + ∑ki+ k[Q])
Ratio of fluorescence intensities in the absence and presence of Q,
ΦF/ (ΦF)Q = (kF + ∑ki+ k[Q]) / (kF + ∑ki)
= 1 + (k[Q]/(kF + ∑ki))
= 1 + k[Q]τIn terms of intensity, I0/I = 1 + KQ , (K= k τ)

Dynamic quenching – Stern-Volmer constant
Dynamic quenching usually measured as intensity in the absence and presence of quencher,
Io/IQ = 1 + K[Q] Stern-Volmer equation K – Stern-Volmer constant

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)
Energy transfer is a result of interaction between donor and acceptor molecules- does not involve emission of a photon.
The extent of energy transfer depends on distance (and other factors)and has seen extensive use to assess donor/acceptor distance.
Donor molecule absorbs a photon (i.e., excitation) but instead offluorescing energy transfer occurs to a neighbouring, acceptormolecule. The acceptor must have an acceptable energetic match for itto undergo excitation (i.e., resonance)

Determining R0
R0 = 9.78 x 103 (J n-4 κ2 ΦD )1/6 (in Å)
J – the overlap of donor emission and acceptor excitation
n – refractive index of the medium, assumed ~ 1.4 in aqueousmedia
κ2 – is the orientation between donor and acceptor dipolesusually not known with certainty, ~ 0.67
ΦD – is the quantum yield of the donor in the absence of the acceptor
