Abstract:
A BODIPY-azide based colorimetric and fluorescence turn-ON probe for rapid, selective and sensitive detection of H2S is reported. The probe displayed a fast response time (10 min in HEPES and 30 s in serum albumin), 28-fold fluorescence enhancement and low detection limit up to 259 nM. The application of the probe to the estimation of H2S in live cells was demonstrated.

Labeling DNA Probes
Radioisotopes, fluorophores, or small molecule binding partners like biotin or digoxigenin, are the most widely used reporter tags for labeling DNA probes. These labels can be attached to the probe DNA molecule via...
Protein Dynamics in Living Cells
Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a fluorescent-protein-based detection technique used to quantify protein movement rates within the cell. This method exposes a small portion of the cell to an intense laser beam. The laser beam causes permanent photobleaching of the fluorophore-tagged proteins in the exposed region. As the bleached...
