Abstract:
A newly developed fluorescent sensor, , shows a specific turn-on response to Zn(2+) and can be excited by visible light. The in situ nuclear Zn(2+) imaging in HeLa and HepG2 cells reveals the nuclear envelope penetrability of the sensor. The specific sensor location in a zebrafish larva was also demonstrated.
