Color bind: We have developed a probe TMR-para-MG that switches its fluorescence emission upon binding to a fluorogen-activating protein (FAP). In cells that express FAP, this dye labels target sites in one color and mitochondria in another color, thus it might be a suitable tool for monitoring changes in mitochondrial membrane potential.
我们开发了一种探针 TMR-para-MG,它在与荧光素激活蛋白 (FAP) 结合时会改变其荧光发射。在表达 FAP 的细胞中,这种染料将靶标标记为一种颜色,线粒体标记为另一种颜色,因此它可能是监测线粒体膜电位变化的合适工具。
