Serial Femtosecond Crystallography Reveals that Photoactivation in a Fluorescent Protein Proceeds via the Hula Twist Mechanism
Chromophore isomerization and twisting lead to secondary structure rearrangements of the protein beta-barrel across the measured time window.

We are then able to follow how chromophore isomerization and twisting lead to secondary structure rearrangements of the protein b2-barrel across the time window of our measurements.
The study reports the first experimental structural evidence of the hula twist mechanism in a protein on the femtosecond-to-picosecond timescale.

We observe signals for the photoisomerization of the chromophore as early as 300 fs, obtaining the first experimental structural evidence of the HT mechanism in a protein on its femtosecond-to-picosecond timescale.
