  • Title: A Bioorthogonally Applicable, Fluorogenic, Large Stokes-Shift Probe for Intracellular Super-Resolution Imaging of Proteins.
    Author: Németh E, Knorr G, Németh K, Kele P.
    Journal: Biomolecules; 2020 Mar 04; 10(3):. PubMed ID: 32143419.
    Abstract:
    Herein, we present the synthesis and application of a fluorogenic, large Stokes-shift (>100 nm), bioorthogonally conjugatable, membrane-permeable tetrazine probe, which can be excited at common laser line 488 nm and detected at around 600 nm. The applied design enabled improved fluorogenicity in the orange/red emission range, thus efficient suppression of background and autofluorescence upon imaging biological samples. Moreover, unlike our previous advanced probes, it does not require the presence of special target platforms or microenvironments to achieve similar fluorogenicity and can be generally applied, e.g., on translationally bioorthogonalized proteins. Live-cell labeling schemes revealed that the fluorogenic probe is suitable for specific labeling of intracellular proteins, site-specifically modified with a cyclooctynylated, non-canonical amino acid, even under no-wash conditions. Furthermore, the probe was found to be applicable in stimulated emission depletion (STED) super-resolution microscopy imaging using a 660 nm depletion laser. Probably the most salient feature of this new probe is that the large Stokes-shift allows dual-color labeling schemes of cellular structures using distinct excitation and the same detection wavelengths for the combined probes, which circumvents chromatic aberration related problems.
