We present Rho-tag and SiR-tag, engineered protein tags derived from bacterial multidrug-resistance proteins that bind unsubstituted (silicon-) rhodamines with nanomolar affinity, enabling fast, rever...

SNAP-tag is a widespread tool for labeling protein for bioimaging. Now, Kühn et al. report SNAP-tag2 with increased labeling kinetics and brightness, which translates into a better performance in live...

The Shi lab at Rutgers-New Brunswick is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study biomolecular condensates and/or mechanosensitive membrane proteins. To see more information and apply, please go to t...

A suite of bridged rhodamine dyes (BriDyes) offers excellent brightness, solubility, photostability, and tunable cell permeability along with resistance to photoblueing, making them exceptional all-pu...

The scientific literature on mitochondria has increased significantly over the years due to findings that these organelles have widespread roles in the onset and progression of pathological conditions such as metabolic disorders, neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases, inflammation, and cancer. Researchers have extensively explored how mitochondrial properties and functions are modified in different models, often using fluorescent inner mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) probes to assess functional mitochondrial aspects such as protonmotive force and oxidative phosphorylation.
