Rhodamine dyes conjugated to targeting ligands can yield exceptionally bright fluorescent probes for live-cell imaging. However, the limited permeability of such rhodamine derivatives restricts their ...

Methylthio-alkane reductases are recently discovered enzymes that can produce methanethiol and small hydrocarbons from methylated sulfur compounds. Now the cryo-EM structure of a methylthio-alkane red...

The photoinduced accumulation of redox equivalents is a challenging requirement for artificial photosynthesis. Now a molecule has been developed in which the sequential absorption of photons results i...

Fluorogenic probes for antigens are useful for various purposes, including medical diagnostics and imaging, but achieving a rapid, large fluorescence increase is difficult. Here, we report a new class...

Nearly all photochemical transformations known to date follow Kasha’s rule, implying that reactions occur only from the lowest electronically excited state of a given spin multiplicity due to the fast...

Molecular recorders based on kinase activity-dependent protein labeling track specific kinase activities to understand their link to cellular phenotypes in heterogeneous cell populations and in vivo.
