Abnormal vitamin B6 status, marked by deficient intracellular concentrations of pyridoxal phosphate (PLP), is classified as a direct biomarker based on its biomedical significance. However, there exist no direct methods for measuring vitamin B6 status in intact cells. Here we describe the development of a fluorogenic probe, RAB6, which shows remarkable selectivity for PLP among the B6 vitamers and other cellular aldehydes.
异常的维生素 B6 状态,表现为细胞内吡哆醛 5-磷酸(PLP)浓度不足,根据其生物医学意义被归类为直接生物标志物。然而,目前还没有直接测量完整细胞中维生素 B6 状态的方法。在这里,我们描述了一种荧光探针 RAB6 的开发,该探针对 B6 维生素和其他细胞醛具有显著的选择性。
