Abstract A novel class of fluorescent dyes based on conformationally locked GFP chromophore is reported. These are characterized by red‐shifted spectra, high fluorescence quantum yields and pH‐independence in physiological pH range.

This composed of previously published fluorogen-activating protein FAST and a novel fluorogenic derivative green (GFP)-like chromophore with red fluorescence. The reversible binding the fluorogen accompanied by three orders magnitude increase in fluorescence (580-650 nm). proposed dye instantly stains target cellular proteins fused FAST, washes out minute timescale, exhibits higher photostability signal confocal...
NanoFAST is the smallest fluorogen-activating protein, consisting of only 98 amino acids, used as a genetically encoded fluorescent tag. Previously, single fluorogen with an orange color was revealed for this protein.

Abstract A novel class of fluorescent dyes based on the conformationally locked heterocyclic core chromophore protein Kaede was discovered. Introduction a single conformational lock at benzylidene fragment resulted in an increase fluorescence quantum yield (FQY) by one order magnitude and redshift ca. 60 nm emission spectrum. Imposing second ethylene provided further FQY. Locked analogues demonstrated bright redshifted broad range solvents, which makes them good candidates for wide spectrum...

Abstract Fluorescence‐activating proteins (FAPs) that bind a chromophore and activate its fluorescence have gained popularity in bioimaging. The fluorescence‐activating absorption‐shifting tag (FAST) is light‐weight FAP enables fast reversible fluorogen binding, thus advancing multiplex super‐resolution imaging. However, the rational design of FAST‐specific fluorogens with large enhancement (FE) remains challenging. Herein, new directly engineered from green fluorescent protein (GFP) by...
