The blue color in metalloprotein azurin has traditionally been attributed to the intense cysteine-to-Cu2+ ligand-to-metal charge transfer transition centered at 628 nm. Although resonance Raman measurements of the Cu2+ active site have implied that the LMCT transition electronically couples to the protein scaffold well beyond its primary metal-ligand coordination shell, the structural extent of this electronic coupling and visualization of the protein-mediated charge transfer dynamics have remained elusive. Here, using femtosecond broadband transient absorption and impulsive Raman spectroscopy, we provide direct evidence for a rapid relaxation between two distinct charge transfer states, having different spatial delocalization, within ∼300 fs followed by recombination of charges in subpicosecond time scales. We invoke the formation of a protein-centered radical cation, possibly Trp48 or a Phe residue, within 100 fs substantiating the long-range electronic coupling for the first time beyond the traditional copper active site. The Raman spectra of the excited CT state show the presence of protein-centric vibrations along with the vibrational modes assigned to the copper active site. Our results demonstrate a large delocalization length scale of the initially populated CT state, thereby highlighting the possibility of exploiting azurin photochemistry for energy conversion techniques.
