The present invention pertains to the field of fluorescent labelling of proteins. In particular, the present invention relates to membrane-impermeant fluorogenic chromophores being capable of binding reversibly a functional derivative of a Photoactive Yellow Protein (PYP), or a functional fragment thereof, for fluorescently labelling biological molecules of interest, preferably proteins of interest.
The present invention especially relates to 4-hydroxybenzylidene-rhodanine (HBR) analogs of formula (II) as membrane-impermeant fluorogenic chromophores.
