Electron Hopping through the 15 Å Triple Tryptophan Molecular Wire in DNA Photolyase Occurs within 30 ps

DNA photolyase is a photoactive flavoprotein that contains three tryptophan residues between the FAD cofactor and the protein surface, the solvent-exposed Trp being located 14.8 Å from the flavin. Photoreduction of the neutral radical FADH• form to the catalytically active FADH− form occurs via elec...
