Abstract

Abstract : The Front Cover shows specific cell staining with a bright fluorescent label. The label is composed of two functional units: a protein‐based binder that selectively binds to the target molecules in the cell and an emitter unit containing multiple individual fluorophores providing high brightness of the label. More information on recent advances of fluorophore multimerization for generation of bright fluorescent labels for flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy applications can be found in the Minireview by D. Yushchenko et al.
