Heterobifunctional Dyes: Highly Fluorescent Linkers Based on Cyanine Dyes
Herein, we present a new synthetic route to cyanine-based heterobifunctional dyes and their application as fluorescent linkers between polymers and biomolecules. The synthesized compounds, designed in the visible spectral range, are equipped with two different reactive groups for highly selective conjugation under physiological conditions. By applying indolenine precursors with functionalized b...
متن کاملStudies of T-284 and Sh-516 Cyanine Dyes as Fluorescent Probes for Specific Α-synuclein Nano-fibrils Detection
As continuation of previous studies, the ability of T-284 and SH-516 cyanine dyes (Figure 1) to selectively detect fibrillar proteins of various amino acids composition (insulin, lysozyme, αsynuclien) was evaluated using fluorescence spectroscopy methods (Table). Both dyes were shown to be applicable for detection of various fibrillar protein species (Figure 2). T-284 demonstrated particular se...
متن کاملPhotoswitching Mechanism of Cyanine Dyes
Cyanine dyes have been shown to undergo reversible photoswitching, where the fluorophore can be switched between a fluorescent state and a dark state upon illumination at different wavelengths. The photochemical mechanism by which switching occurs has yet to be elucidated. In this study, we have determined the mechanism of photoswitching by characterizing the kinetics of dark state formation an...
متن کاملDevelopment of photostable near-infrared cyanine dyes.
With the emerging interest in optical in vivo imaging, there is an increasing demand of photostable near-infrared (NIR) dyes. Herein we report the rational design of an amine tricarbocyanine structure with improved photostability (CyNA) and its combinatorial derivatization to render CyNA-414 as a NIR-fluorescent dye with stronger emission intensity and higher photostability than the NIR standar...
متن کاملFluorescent Nucleic Acids
A new modular approach to the design and discovery of fluorophores and sensors built on a DNA backbone is described. Fluorescent designer nucleosides are synthesized into short oligomers; their close interactions results in highly efficient reporters with properties not seen in standard fluorophores. Applications in sensing of molecules, ions, and enzymes in water and in the vapor phase are des...
