Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), commonly produced in mitochondria, is required by almost all the living organisms; thus fluorescent probes for monitoring mitochondrial ATP levels fluctuation are essential and highly desired. Herein, we report a multisite‐binding switchable fluorescent probe, ATP‐Red 1 , which selectively and rapidly responds to intracellular concentrations of ATP. Live‐cell imaging indicated that ATP‐Red 1 mainly localized to mitochondria with good biocompatibility and membrane penetration. In particular, with the help of ATP‐Red 1 , we successfully observed not only the decreased mitochondrial ATP levels in the presence of KCN and starvation state, but also the increased mitochondrial ATP levels in the early stage of cell apoptosis. These results indicate that ATP‐Red 1 is a useful tool for investigating ATP‐relevant biological processes. 相似文献

Proteasomes are therapeutic targets for various cancers and autoimmune diseases. Constitutively expressed proteasomes have three active sites, β1c, β2c, and β5c. Lymphoid tissues also express the immunoproteasome subunits β1i, β2i, and β5i. Rapid and simultaneous measurement of the activity of these catalytic subunits would assist in the discovery of new inhibitors, improve analysis of proteasome inhibitors in clinical trials, and simplify analysis of subunit expression. In this work, we present a cocktail of activity‐based probes that enables simultaneous gel‐based detection of all six catalytic human proteasome subunits. We used this cocktail to develop specific inhibitors for β1c, β2c, β5c, and β2i, to compare the active‐site specificity of clinical proteasome inhibitors, and to demonstrate that many hematologic malignancies predominantly express immunoproteasomes. Furthermore, we show that selective and complete inhibition of β5i and β1i is cytotoxic to primary cells from acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) patients. 相似文献

Membrane voltage is an important biophysical signal that underlies intercellular electrical communications. A fluorescent voltage indicator is presented that enables the investigation of electrical signaling at high spatial resolution. The method is built upon the site‐specific modification of microbial rhodopsin proteins with organic fluorophores, resulting in a hybrid indicator scaffold that is one of the most sensitive and fastest orange‐colored voltage indicators developed to date. We applied this technique to optically map electrical connectivity in cultured cells, which revealed gap junction‐mediated long‐range coupling that spanned over hundreds of micrometers. 相似文献

Spinach and Broccoli are fluorogenic RNA aptamers that bind DFHBI, a mimic of the chromophore in green fluorescent protein, and activate its fluorescence. Spinach/Broccoli‐DFHBI complexes exhibit high fluorescence in vitro, but they exhibit lower fluorescence in mammalian cells. Here, computational screening was used to identify BI, a DFHBI derivative that binds Broccoli with higher affinity and leads to markedly higher fluorescence in cells compared to previous ligands. BI prevents thermal unfolding of Broccoli at 37 °C, leading to more folded Broccoli and thus more fluorescent Broccoli‐BI complexes in cells. Broccoli‐BI complexes are more photostable owing to impaired photoisomerization and rapid unbinding of photoisomerized cis‐BI. These properties enable single mRNA containing 24 Broccoli aptamers to be imaged in live mammalian cells treated with BI. Small molecule ligands can thus promote RNA folding in cells, and thus allow single mRNA imaging with fluorogenic aptamers. 相似文献

The development of a fluorescent probe to distinguish between cysteine (Cys) and homocysteine (Hcy) is always a challenge owing to their structural similarity, and the simultaneous detection of Cys and Hcy by utilizing different emission channels is especially difficult. In this work, we designed and synthesized a new fluorescent probe to differentiate between Cys and Hcy on the basis of a coumarin derivative with a chlorine atom and an α,β‐unsaturated aldehyde. Cys and Hcy induced different cascade reactions with the probe, which led to different products with distinct photophysical properties. The nonfluorescent probe responded to Cys and emitted strong blue fluorescence, whereas it reacted with Hcy and generated yellow fluorescence without interference from glutathione. In addition, the probe was successfully applied to distinguish between Cys and Hcy in living cells. 相似文献

Collapse of the protein homeostasis (proteostasis) can lead to accumulation and aggregation of unfolded proteins, which has been found to associate with a number of disease conditions including neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes and inflammation. Here we report a maleimide‐functionalized tetraphenylethene (TPE)‐derivatized fluorescent dye, TPE‐NMI, which shows fluorescence turn‐on property upon reacting with unfolded proteins in vitro and in live cells under proteostatic stress conditions. The level of unfolded proteins can be measured by flow cytometry and visualized with confocal microscopy. 相似文献

Live imaging of exocytosis dynamics is crucial for a precise spatiotemporal understanding of secretion phenomena, but current approaches have serious limitations. We designed and synthesized small‐molecular fluorescent probes that were chemically optimized for sensing acidic intravesicular pH values, and established that they can be used to sensitively and reliably visualize vesicular dynamics following stimulation. This straightforward technique for the visualization of exocytosis as well as endocytosis/reacidification processes with high spatiotemporal precision is expected to be a powerful tool for investigating dynamic cellular phenomena involving changes in the pH value. 相似文献

Two tripodal fluorescent probes Zn?L1 , 2 have been synthesised, and their anion‐binding capabilities were examined by using fluorescence spectroscopy. Probe Zn?L1 allows the selective and ratiometric detection of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) at physiological pH, even in the presence of several competing anions, such as ADP, phosphate and bicarbonate. The probe was applied to the real‐time monitoring of the apyrase‐catalysed hydrolysis of ATP, in a medium that mimics an extracellular fluid. 相似文献

Far‐red organic fluorophores commonly used in traditional and super‐resolution localization microscopy are found to contain a fluorescent impurity with green excitation and near‐red emission. This near‐red fluorescent impurity can interfere with some multicolor stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy/photoactivated localization microscopy measurements in live cells and produce subtle artifacts in chemically fixed cells. We additionally describe alternatives to avoid artifacts in super‐resolution localization microscopy. 相似文献

Fluorescent proteins are transformative tools; thus, any brightness increase is a welcome improvement. We invented the “vGFP strategy” based on structural analysis of GFP bound to a single‐domain antibody, predicting tunable dimerization, enhanced brightness (ca. 50 %), and improved pH resistance. We verified all of these predictions using biochemistry, crystallography, and single‐molecule studies. We applied the vsfGFP proteins in three diverse scenarios: single‐step immunofluorescence in vitro (3× brighter due to dimerization); expression in bacteria and human cells in vivo (1.5× brighter); and protein fusions showing better pH resistance in human cells in vivo. The vGFP strategy thus allows upgrading of existing applications, is applicable to other fluorescent proteins, and suggests a method for tuning dimerization of arbitrary proteins and optimizing protein properties in general. 相似文献

Vicinal‐sulfydryl‐containing peptides/proteins (VSPPs) play a crucial role in human pathologies. Fluorescent probes that are capable of detecting intracellular VSPPs in vivo would be useful tools to explore the mechanisms of some diseases. In this study, by regulating the spatial separation of two maleimide groups in a fluorescent dye to match that of two active cysteine residues contained in the conserved amino acid sequence (–CGPC–) of human thioredoxin, two active‐site‐matched fluorescent probes, o‐Dm‐Ac and m‐Dm‐Ac, were developed for real‐time imaging of VSPPs in living cells. As a result, the two probes can rapidly respond to small peptide models and reduced proteins, such as WCGPCK (W‐6), WCGGPCK (W‐7), and WCGGGPCK (W‐8), reduced bovine serum albumin (rBSA), and reduced thioredoxin (rTrx). Moreover, o‐Dm‐Ac displays a higher binding sensitivity with the above‐mentioned peptides and proteins, especially with W‐7 and rTrx. Furthermore, o‐Dm‐Ac was successfully used to rapidly and directly detect VSPPs both in vitro and in living cells. Thus, a novel probe‐design strategy was proposed and the synthesized probe applied successfully in imaging of target proteins in situ. 相似文献

Three water‐soluble tetracationic quadrupolar chromophores comprising two three‐coordinate boron π‐acceptor groups bridged by thiophene‐containing moieties were synthesised for biological imaging applications. Compound 3 containing the bulkier 5‐(3,5‐Me2C6H2)‐2,2′‐(C4H2S)2‐5′‐(3,5‐Me2C6H2) bridge is stable over a long period of time, exhibits a high fluorescence quantum yield and strong one‐ and two‐photon absorption (TPA), and has a TPA cross section of 268 GM at 800 nm in water. Confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy studies in live cells indicated localisation of the chromophore at the mitochondria; moreover, cytotoxicity measurements proved biocompatibility. Thus, chromophore 3 has excellent potential for one‐ and two‐photon‐excited fluorescence imaging of mitochondrial function in cells. 相似文献

FRET‐Based Mitochondria‐Targetable Dual‐Excitation Ratiometric Fluorescent Probe for Monitoring Hydrogen Sulfide in Living Cells 下载免费PDF全文
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is connected with various physiological and pathological functions. However, understanding the important functions of H2S remains challenging, in part because of the lack of tools for detecting endogenous H2S. Herein, compounds Ratio‐H2S 1/2 are the first FRET‐based mitochondrial‐targetable dual‐excitation ratiometric fluorescent probes for H2S on the basis of H2S‐promoted thiolysis of dinitrophenyl ether. With the enhancement of H2S concentration, the excitation peak at λ≈402 nm of the phenolate form of the hydroxycoumarin unit drastically increases, whereas the excitation band centered at λ≈570 nm from rhodamine stays constant and can serve as a reference signal. Thus, the ratios of fluorescence intensities at λ=402 and 570 nm (I402/I570) exhibit a drastic change from 0.048 in the absence of H2S to 0.36 in the presence of 180 μM H2S; this is a 7.5‐fold variation in the excitation ratios. The favorable properties of the probe include the donor and acceptor excitation bands, which exhibit large excitation separations (up to 168 nm separation) and comparable excitation intensities, high sensitivity and selectivity, and function well at physiological pH. In addition, it is demonstrated that the probe can localize in the mitochondria and determine H2S in living cells. It is expected that this strategy will lead to the development of a wide range of mitochondria‐targetable dual‐excitation ratiometric probes for other analytes with outstanding spectral features, including large separations between the excitation wavelengths and comparable excitation intensities. 相似文献

In a conjugated polymer‐based single‐particle heterojunction, stochastic fluctuations of the photogenerated hole population lead to spontaneous fluorescence switching. We found that 405 nm irradiation can induce charge recombination and activate the single‐particle emission. Based on these phenomena, we developed a novel class of semiconducting polymer dots that can operate in two superresolution imaging modes. The spontaneous switching mode offers efficient imaging of large areas, with <10 nm localization precision, while the photoactivation/deactivation mode offers slower imaging, with further improved localization precision (ca. 1 nm), showing advantages in resolving small structures that require high spatial resolution. Superresolution imaging of microtubules and clathrin‐coated pits was demonstrated, under both modes. The excellent localization precision and versatile imaging options provided by these nanoparticles offer clear advantages for imaging of various biological systems. 相似文献

Photobleaching is a major challenge in fluorescence microscopy, in particular if high excitation light intensities are used. Signal‐to‐noise and spatial resolution may be compromised, which limits the amount of information that can be extracted from an image. Photobleaching can be bypassed by using exchangeable labels, which transiently bind to and dissociate from a target, thereby replenishing the destroyed labels with intact ones from a reservoir. Here, we demonstrate confocal and STED microscopy with short, fluorophore‐labeled oligonucleotides that transiently bind to complementary oligonucleotides attached to protein‐specific antibodies. The constant exchange of fluorophore labels in DNA‐based STED imaging bypasses photobleaching that occurs with covalent labels. We show that this concept is suitable for targeted, two‐color STED imaging of whole cells. 相似文献
