A highly selective turn-on colorimetric, red fluorescent sensor for detecting mobile zinc in living cells.

ABSTRACT: We describe ZRL1, a turn-on colorimetric and red fluorescent zinc ion sensor. The Zn(2+)-promoted ring opening of the rhodamine spirolactam ring in ZRL1 evokes a 220-fold fluorescence turn-on response. In aqueous media, ZRL1 turn-on luminescence is highly selective for Zn(2+) ions, with no significant response to other competitive cations, including Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+), Mg(2+), Mn(2+), Fe(2+), Co(2+), Ni(2+), Cu(2+), Cd(2+), or Hg(2+). In addition to these characteristics, preliminary results indicate that ZRL1 can be delivered to living cells and can be used to monitor changes in intracellular Zn(2+) levels.

A turn-on fluorescent sensor for detecting nickel in living cells.

Project description:We present the synthesis and properties of Nickelsensor-1 (NS1), a new water-soluble, turn-on fluorescent sensor that is capable of selectively responding to Ni(2+) in aqueous solution and in living cells. NS1 combines a BODIPY chromophore and a mixed N/O/S receptor to provide good selectivity for Ni(2+) over a range of biologically abundant metal ions in aqueous solution. In addition to these characteristics, confocal microscopy experiments further show that NS1 can be delivered into living cells and report changes in intracellular Ni(2+) levels in a respiratory cell model.

A selective turn-on fluorescent sensor for imaging copper in living cells.

Project description:We present the synthesis, properties, and biological applications of Coppersensor-1 (CS1), a new water-soluble, turn-on fluorescent sensor for intracellular imaging of copper in living biological samples. CS1 utilizes a BODIPY reporter and thioether-rich receptor to provide high selectivity and sensitivity for Cu+ over other biologically relevant metal ions, including Cu2+, in aqueous solution. This BODIPY-based probe is the first Cu+-responsive sensor with visible excitation and emission profiles and gives a 10-fold turn-on response for detecting this ion. Confocal microscopy experiments further establish that CS1 is membrane-permeable and can successfully monitor intracellular Cu+ levels within living cells.

A Red Emissive Fluorescent Turn-on Sensor for the Rapid Detection of Selenocysteine and Its Application in Living Cells Imaging.

Project description:The content of selenocysteine in cells has an important effect on a variety of human diseases, and the detection of selenocysteine by fluorescent sensors in vivo has shown many advantages. In order to further develop fast-reaction-time, good-selectivity, and high-sensitivity long-wavelength selenocysteine fluorescent sensors, we designed and synthesized the compound YZ-A4 as a turn-on fluorescent sensor to detect the content of selenocysteine. The quantitative detection range of the sensor YZ-A4 to selenocysteine was from 0 to 32 μM, and the detection limit was as low as 11.2 nM. The sensor displayed a rapid turn-on response, good selectivity, and high sensitivity to selenocysteine. Finally, we have demonstrated that YZ-A4 could be used for fluorescence imaging of selenocysteine in living cells.

A Highly Selective Turn-On Fluorescent Probe for the Detection of Zinc.

Project description:A novel turn-on fluorescence probe L has been designed that exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity with a detection limit of 9.53 × 10-8 mol/L for the quantification of Zn2+. 1H-NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the unsymmetrical nature of the structure of the Schiff base probe L. An emission titration experiment in the presence of different molar fractions of Zn2+ was used to perform a Job's plot analysis. The results showed that the stoichiometric ratio of the complex formed by L and Zn2+ was 1:1. Moreover, the molecular structure of the mononuclear Cu complex reveals one ligand L coordinates with one Cu atom in the asymmetric unit. On adding CuCl2 to the ZnCl2/L system, a Cu-Zn complex was formed and a strong quenching behavior was observed, which inferred that the Cu2+ displaced Zn2+ to coordinate with the imine nitrogen atoms and hydroxyl oxygen atoms of probe L.

A highly selective "turn-on" water-soluble fluorescent sensor for gallium ion detection.

Project description:In this work, a novel sensor, (E)-N'-(3-(tert-butyl)-2-hydroxybenzylidene)thiophene-2-carbohydrazide (1), based on salicylaldehyde and thiophene hydrazide moieties was designed and synthesized. The single-crystal structure of 1 was achieved and studied for understanding its functional properties. The interaction and recognition abilities of 1 with different metal ions were investigated. Sensor 1 showed excellent "turn-on" fluorescence with highly selective and specific recognition ability in the presence of gallium ions (Ga3+) in an aqueous solution. The sensing behavior of 1 with Ga3+ was also studied by photophysical experiments, ESI-MS analysis, and 1H NMR titration. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of 1 for the detection of Ga3+ in an aqueous solution were calculated as 58 nM, and 192 nM, respectively. DFT calculations were carried out to optimize the configuration of 1 and 1-Ga3+ complexes and rationalize the photophysical experimental data. Highly selective test strips based on sensor 1 were developed for Ga3+ detection. Sensor 1 was also used to detect Ga3+ in actual water samples, and a considerable recovery rate was obtained.

A Simple and Rapid Turn On ESIPT Fluorescent Probe for Colorimetric and Ratiometric Detection of Biothiols in Living Cells.

Project description:Biothiols, such as cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), and glutathione (GSH), play a key role in an extensive range of physiological processes and biological functions. Therefore, the selective and sensitive detection of intracellular thiols is important for revealing cellular function. In this study, ethyl 2-(4-(acryloyloxy)-3-formylphenyl)-4-methylthiazole-5-carboxylate (NL-AC) was designed and synthesized as a colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescent probe that can be utilized to rapidly, sensitively and selectively detect biothiols in physiological media. The fluorescence intensity of this probe using the three target biothiols at a concentration of 20 equiv. of the probe increased by approximately 6~10-fold in comparison to that without the biothiols in aqueous solution. The limits of detection (LOD) for Cys, Hcy and GSH were 0.156, 0.185, and 1.838 μM, respectively. In addition, both 1H-NMR and MS analyses suggested the mechanism of fluorescence sensing to be excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The novel colorimetric and ratiometric probe is structurally simple and offers detection within 20 min. Furthermore, this probe can be successfully applied in bioimaging. The results indicate high application potential in analytical chemistry and diagnostics.

A Highly Selective Perylenediimide-Based Chemosensor: "Naked-Eye" Colorimetric and Fluorescent Turn-On Recognition for Al<sup>3</sup>.

Project description:A novel "turn-on" fluorescent probe (PCN) was designed, synthesized, and characterized with perylene tetracarboxylic disimide as the fluorophore and Schiff base subunit as the metal ion receptor. The probe demonstrated a considerable fluorescence enhancement in the presence of Al3+ in DMF with high selectivity and sensitivity. Furthermore, the considerably "off-on" fluorescence response simultaneously led to the apparent color change from colorless to brilliant yellow, which could also be identified by naked eye easily. The sensing capability of PCN to Al3+ was evaluated by the changes in ultraviolet-visible, fluorescence, Fourier transform-infrared, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, and high-resolution mass spectrometry spectroscopies. The linear concentration range for Al3+ was 0-63 μM with a detection limit of 0.16 μM, which allowed for the quantitative determination of Al3+.

Photoactivatable Sensors for Detecting Mobile Zinc.

Project description:Fluorescent sensors for mobile zinc are valuable for studying complex biological systems. Because these sensors typically bind zinc rapidly and tightly, there has been little temporal control over the activity of the probe after its application to a sample. The ability to control the activity of a zinc sensor in vivo during imaging experiments would greatly improve the time resolution of the measurement. Here, we describe photoactivatable zinc sensors that can be triggered with short pulses of UV light. These probes are prepared by functionalizing a zinc sensor with protecting groups that render the probe insensitive to metal ions. Photoinduced removal of the protecting groups restores the binding site, allowing for zinc-responsive changes in fluorescence that can be observed in live cells and tissues.

A multi-functional chemosensor for highly selective ratiometric fluorescent detection of silver(I) ion and dual turn-on fluorescent and colorimetric detection of sulfide.

Project description:A multi-functional chemosensor 1 as silver and sulfide detector was synthesized by the combination of octopamine and 4-dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde. Sensor 1 exhibited a ratiometric fluorescence emission for Ag+ from blue to sky. The binding mode of 1 and Ag+ turned out to be a 1?:?1 ratio as determined using Job plot and electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectral analyses. The sensing mechanism of 1 with silver ion was unravelled by 1H NMR titrations and theoretical calculations. Sensor 1 also discerned sulfide by enhancing fluorescence intensity and changing colour from yellow to colourless in aqueous solution. The sensing properties of 1 toward S2- were investigated by using ESI-mass analysis, Job plot and 1H NMR titrations. Moreover, 1 could be used as a detector for sulfide in a wide pH range.
