AI Article Synopsis

  • A new bodipy probe was created for specifically labeling tagged proteins within live cells.
  • It shows a significant change in its spectrum when it covalently bonds with a specially designed peptide containing two pairs of Arg-Cys.
  • This advancement allows for better tracking and studying of proteins in their natural cellular environment.

Article Abstract

A bodipy probe was developed for site-specific labeling of tagged proteins inside live cells which displays a large spectral change upon covalent coupling to the designed peptide that contains two pairs of Arg-Cys.
