چکیده
Due to the importance of Mn(2+) ions in biological processes, it is of growing interest to develop protocols for analysis of Mn(2+) uptake and distribution in cells. A supramolecular metal displacement assay can provide ratiometric fluorescence detection of Mn(2+), allowing for quantitative and longitudinal analysis of Mn(2+) uptake in living cells.

His-tags as Zn(II) binding motifs in a protein-based fluorescent sensor.
Fluorescent indicators that allow real-time imaging of Zn(II) in living cells are invaluable tools for understanding Zn(II) homeostasis. Genetically encoded sensors based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer between fluorescent protein domains have important advantages over synthetic probes. We discovered that hexahistidine tags have a strong tendency to dimerize upon binding of Zn(II) in ...

متن کاملA Thin Layer Imaging with the Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy
Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) is an optical technique that allows imaging of a thin layer of the sample with a thickness of about 100-200 nm. It is used in science of cell biology to study cellular processes, especially near the membranes of living cells. This method is based on the total internal reflection phenomenon, where the evanescent wave is generated in the l...

2-N-anilinopyrimidine was used as specific binder towards selected transition metals ion such as Mn(II), Ni(II) and Cr(II) in a 1 : 2 ratio ( metal : ligand ) to give their respective complexes. The structures of the ligand and complexes were confirmed by spectroscopic analysis. Fluorescence studies of metal complexes of 2-N-anilinopyrimidine and the ligand itself were carried out under various...
