Abstract
This communication describes a design of cell-permeable near-infrared fluorogenic substrates for imaging beta-lactamase expression in living mammalian cells. This design is based on fluorescence energy transfer resonance and utilizes a peracetylated d-glucosamine to facilitate the transport of the near-infrared probe across cell membranes. This new type of fluorogenic probe may also be applied to image gene expression in living animals.Entities:
