BODIPY–Tetrazine Derivatives as Superbright Bioorthogonal Turn‐on Probes1. Issue 27 (27th May 2013) - Carlson, Jonathan C. T.
Abstract The fastest and the brightest: A new design that intimately connects tetrazine to a BODIPY fluorophore enables exceptionally efficient energy transfer and quenching. Upon reaction of the tetrazine, the brightness of the fluorophore increases more than a thousand‐fold, which is a fluorogenic activation up to two orders of magnitude greater than previously described.
