SVD and data analysis(eg. for Hofrichter paper) • Truncated X (or A) data matrix is fit to exponentials or other model • Get noise filtering Basis Specta Time Course of Basis Specta www.math.tau.ac.il/~nin/Courses/BioInfo04/svd.ppt
Circular Dichroism and Optical Rotary Dispersion CD • CD is the differential absorption of circularly polarized light • ORD rotates linearly polarized light (and other) • Both result from chiral structures as can be used as structural probes (eg Protein 2ndary Structure) ORD http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d1/Circular_dichroism.png/622px-Circular_dichroism.png
Polarized Absorption Arrangements can be made to measure elements directly, using PEM or using ellipsometric techniques.
Ellispometric Technique • Key is crossed (or nearly crossed) polarizers as in this schematic for TRORD. • Used for protein folding (Goldbeck paper).
