Methods of covalent labeling of a specific tag protein with small-molecular dyes play an important role in studying dynamic behaviors of proteins in living cells. On the basis of quinone methide chemistry, we designed and synthesized a β-galactosidase labeling probe, CMFβ-gal, which shows a fluorescence wavelength change accompanying the labeling reaction, owing to fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Since the FRET efficiency changes accompanying the labeling reaction, fluorescence of labeled protein can be observed separately from that of the unreacted probe, so immediate detection of the target protein is possible. This is the first report of a protein labeling probe which features a change of fluorescence wavelength upon reaction, allowing the labeled protein to be detected even in the presence of unreacted probe.

Syntheses, absorption and fluorescence properties for a series of new enzyme substrates are described, which are derived from 7-hydroxycoumarins possessing electron-withdrawing substituents in position 3.The new substrates are advantageous over existing ones in that they exhibit longwave absorption and fluorescence maxima as well as large Stokes' shifts.In addition, their pKa values, which are usually between 6.0 and 7.0, allow the direct and continuous kinetic assay of hydrolases such as esterases, phosphatases, and sulfatases. - Keywords: Enzyme substrates; Absorption spectra; Fluorescence spectra
