Based on -cyclobutylaminoluciferin (cybLuc), a set of high and efficient caged bioluminescent derivatives (Clucs) as firefly luciferase pro-substrates has been developed herein. After careful examination, these molecules exhibited low cytotoxicity and prolonged bioluminescence imaging up to 6 h and . Importantly, these caged luciferin derivatives have the potential to serve as long-term tracking tools to explore some biological process by using bioluminescent imaging.
基于环丁基氨基荧光素(cybLuc),本文开发了一组高效的笼蔽生物发光衍生物(Clucs)作为萤火虫荧光素酶前体底物。经过仔细研究,这些分子表现出低细胞毒性,生物发光成像延长至6小时及以上。重要的是,这些笼蔽荧光素衍生物有潜力作为长期追踪工具,通过生物发光成像来探索一些生物学过程。
