Selective Labeling of Extracellular Proteins Containing Polyhistidine Sequences by a Fluorescein−Nitrilotriacetic Acid Conjugate
摘要:
The compound NTA-DCF consists of two components, a dichlorofluorescein (DCF) reporter and a nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) functionality. The latter binds polyhistidine sequences selectively through a bridging metal ion. The NTA-DCF conjugate has photophysical properties similar to those of the parent DCF fluorophore both by itself and as its nickel(II) complex. The insensitivity of the emission to paramagnetic ions allows the probe to label His6-tagged proteins fluorescently on the extracellular surfaces of HEK 293-T and HeLa cells.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the emissive, e.g. fluorescent labeling of an analyte or other species. Emissive compositions may be attached to an analyte (e.g, a protein, a cell, or other biomolecule), where light emission from the composition may be used to determine the analyte. Emissive compositions of the present invention exhibit little or no significant decrease in light emission in the presence of metal ions.

[FR] La présente invention concerne des compositions et des procédés destinés au marquage émissif, p. ex. fluorescent, d'une substance à analyser ou d'autres espèces. Les compositions émissives peuvent être fixées à une substance à analyser (p. ex. une protéine, une cellule ou une autre biomolécule), l'émission lumineuse de la composition pouvant servir à déterminer ladite substance à analyser. Les compositions émissives objets de la présente invention ne présentent qu'une faible baisse significative, ou aucune baisse de l'émission lumineuse, en présence d'ions métalliques.
