New derivatives of aminobenzopyrano-xanthene (ABPX) dyes have been designed and synthesized with high fluorescence quantum yields in the visible and far-red regions. It was kinetically demonstrated that the structurally rigid conjugation of the xanthene moiety, which is closely related to the reduction of the nonradiative deactivation process, is an effective molecular design for the drastic enhancement of fluorescence emission efficiency.

The ability to label synthetic oligonucleotides with fluorescent probes has greatly expanded their nanotechnological applications. To continue this expansion, it is essential to develop approachable, modular, and tunable fluorescent platforms. In this study, we present the synthesis and incorporation of an amino-formyl-thieno[3,2-]thiophene (AFTh) handle at the 5'-position of DNA oligonucleotides.

Key Chlorophyll Molecules in the Uphill Energy Transfer from Chlorophyll to P700 in Far-Red Light-Adapted Photosystem I.

Multiple far-red light-adapted photosystem I (FR-PSI) reaction centers are recently found to work in oxygenic photosynthesis. They contain a small amount of a new type pigment chlorophyll (Chl ) in addition to the major pigment chlorophyll (Chl ). FR-PSI differs from the conventional PSIs in plants and cyanobacteria, which use only visible light absorbed by Chl , although the mechanism of FR-PSI is not fully clear yet.

Click-ready iridium(iii) complexes as versatile bioimaging probes for bioorthogonal metabolic labeling.

Herein, we report the synthesis, photophysical characterization and validation of iridium(iii)-polypyridine complexes functionalized for click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry, as well as their versatile applications as probes in bioimaging studies exploiting metabolic labeling. The designed dyes are conjugated to chemical reporters in a specific manner within cells by CuAAC ligation and display attractive photophysical properties in the UV-visible range. They are indeed highly photostable and emit in the far-red to near-IR region with long lifetimes and large Stokes shifts.

Narrowband absorption organic semiconductors are highly attractive for spectrally selective photodetection applications requiring lightweight and customizable devices. Although narrowband absorption photodetectors have achieved success in the visible range, far-red (650-750 nm) devices are scarce. The far-red wavelength range is relevant for applications in medical diagnostics, such as photoplethysmography for blood oxygen saturation detection.

A visible seedling-stage screening system for the Brassica napus hybrid breeding by a novel hypocotyl length-regulated gene BnHL.

Article Synopsis
  • Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is a vital oilseed crop that benefits from heterosis, but using recessive genic male sterility (RGMS) for breeding can be slow and labor-intensive due to the need to remove fertile plants.
  • Researchers identified the BnHL gene, linked to a fertility gene (BnMs2), as a potential morphological marker for identifying fertile plants based on hypocotyl length, which showed that edited mutants had longer hypocotyls compared to wild types.
  • The study demonstrated that by targeting the BnHL gene, breeders can efficiently distinguish fertile plants early in the process, enhancing RGMS breeding methods without introducing transgenes throughout production.
