Abstract

Abstract : An amidine-based small molecule two-photon fluorescent probe for monitoring vesicle transport from the ER to lysosome in live cells was reported. Abstract : We report an amidine-based small molecule two-photon fluorescent probe (ELP1 ) for monitoring vesicle transport from the ER to lysosome in live cells. Two-photon microscopy imaging studies indicated that this probe initially localized in the ER and subsequently transferred to lysosomal compartments through vesicular transport. These results may provide an effective tool for studying trafficking-related biology and pathology in real-time.
