No influence of isotopic substitution in deuterium-substituted tryptophan on the florescence excitation spectrum has previously been found out. Here, the isotopic effects of electronic excitation of deuterium-substituted tryptophan were experimentally and theoretically analyzed for first time. It was shown a short-wave shift of the UV-absorption maximum at 220 nm corresponding to the 360 cal/mol and short-wave shift for fluorescence spectrum corresponding to the 210 cal/mol. To account for this effect, the quantum chemical calculations of the geometric and electron structure, frequencies of normal vibrations and transition energies have been performed. The isotopic effects originate from the zero-point energies of ground and excited states. It was found that isotopic shifts depend on the position of isotope in the molecule and kind of transition. So, it can be utilized in the analysis of proteins structure and complexation.
