rsEGFP2 is a reversibly photoswitchable fluorescent protein used in super-resolution light microscopy. Here the authors present the structure of an rsEGFP2 ground-state intermediate after excited state-decay that was obtained by nanosecond time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography at an X-ray free electron laser, and time-resolved absorption spectroscopy measurements complement their structural analysis.
