Fluorescence switchable probes based on a molecular rotor for selective detection of proteins and small molecules

In this communication, we report a general strategy to create fluorescence switchable probes, where a small molecule ligand is conjugated to a fluorescent molecular rotor, for the selective detection of proteins through a non-enzymatic process. In the presence of target proteins, bond rotation of the molecular rotor is restricted, thereby triggering the emission of strong fluorescence.

Blue fluorescent dye-protein complexes based on fluorogenic cyanine dyes and single chain antibody fragments

Fluoromodules are complexes formed upon the noncovalent binding of a fluorogenic dye to its cognate biomolecular partner, which significantly enhances the fluorescence quantum yield of the dye. Previously, several single-chain, variable fragment (scFv) antibodies were selected from a yeast cell surface-displayed library that activated fluorescence from a family of unsymmetrical cyanine dyes covering much of the visible and near-IR spectrum. The current work expands our repertoire of genetically encodable scFv-dye pairs by selecting and characterizing a group of scFvs that activate fluorogenic violet-absorbing, blue-fluorescing cyanine dyes, based on oxazole and thiazole heterocycles. The dye binds to both yeast cell surface-displayed and soluble scFvs with low nanomolar Kd values. These dye-protein fluoromodules exhibit high quantum yields, approaching unity for the brightest system. The promiscuity of these scFvs with other fluorogenic cyanine dyes was also examined. Fluorescence microscopy demonstrates that the yeast cell surface-displayed scFvs can be used for multicolor imaging. The prevalence of 405 nm lasers on confocal imaging and flow cytometry systems make these new reagents potentially valuable for cell biological studies.
