Intracellular Zn(ii) induced turn-on fluorescence of an l-phenylalanine-derived pseudopeptide
A C-2 symmetric l-phenylalanine-derived pseudopeptide has been synthesized for selective and sensitive recognition of Zn(ii) ions in aqueous-organic media. The pseudopeptidic probes exhibit intracellular Zn(ii) ion-sensing capabilities as demonstrated via live-cell fluorescence studies on RAW264.7 c...

Summary: | A C-2 symmetric l-phenylalanine-derived pseudopeptide has been synthesized for selective and sensitive recognition of Zn(ii) ions in aqueous-organic media. The pseudopeptidic probes exhibit intracellular Zn(ii) ion-sensing capabilities as demonstrated via live-cell fluorescence studies on RAW264.7 cells. Hence, we present a bioinspired pseudopeptide for potential biological applications involving intracellular Zn(ii) ion detection. |
