Han, Xiaojing published the artcileA FRET-based ratiometric fluorescent probe to detect cysteine metabolism in mitochondria, Recommanded Product: 1-Ethyl-2-methylquinolin-1-ium iodide, the publication is Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry (2020), 18(7), 1487-1492, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
As an important biothiol in living cells, cysteine is closely related to oxidative damage in living organisms. Sulfite from cysteine metabolism in living cells plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis in an organism, and the unbalance of sulfite in vivo would lead to multiple diseases. Thus the development of a new fluorescent probe for cysteine metabolism is needed urgently in mitochondria which are the main place of cysteine metabolism Herein the authors construct a novel targeting mitochondria fluorescent probe CP-K (I) based on the FRET mechanism to visualize sulfite in living MCF-7 cells. Probe CP-K displays a large Stokes shift of 150 nm, a low detection limit (26.3 nM) and “naked eye” detection after the addition of HSO3–. Importantly, it is appropriate for imaging the endogenous sulfite from cysteine metabolism in living cells.
