Visible fluorescent proteins from Aequorea victoria contain next to the fluorophoric group a single tryptophan residue. Both molecules form a single donor-acceptor pair for resonance energy transfer (RET) within the protein. Time-resolved fluorescence experiments using tryptophan excitation have shown that RET is manifested by a distinct growing in of acceptor fluorescence at a rate characteristic for this process. In addition, time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy measurements under the same excitation-emission conditions showed a correlation time that is similar to the time constant of the same RET process with the additional benefit of gaining information on the relative orientation of the corresponding transition dipoles.
