Abstract
This paper emphasizes the basic aspects of the interactions of chromop roteins at low temperatures with external pressure fields and electric fields. We discuss how the respective spectral properties can be modi fied and what we can learn from the spectral changes about the thermod ynamic, electrostatic, functional and structural properties of protein s. A few examples are discussed in more detail. (C) 1998 Elsevier Scie nce B.V. All rights reserved.
