Fluorescence quenching is used to gain information on the exposure of tryptophan residues to lipid in membrane-bound proteins and peptides. A protocol is developed to calculate this exposure, based on a comparison of quenching efficiency and of a fluorescence lifetime (or quantum yield) measured for

## Abstract Tryptophan plays important roles in protein stability and recognition despite its scarcity in proteins. Except as fluorescent groups, they have been used rarely in peptide design. Nevertheless, Trp residues were crucial for the stability of some designed minimal proteins. In 2000, Trp–T
