The chemical composition of cells at the molecular level determines their growth,
differentiation, structure, and function. Probing this composition is powerful because it …

Pyrene-functionalized oligonucleotides (PFOs) are increasingly explored as tools in
fundamental research, diagnostics and nanotechnology. Their popularity is linked to the …

Inspired by dual-wavelength fluorescence ratiometric method which could reduce the
influence from the environmental change, here, we present a novel dual-potential …

Three new rhodamine-based probes Y1–Y3 were synthesized as “off–on” chemosensors for
Fe3+ imaging in living cells. The recognizing behaviors were investigated both …

A novel diarylethene with a triazole-linked rhodamine B unit has been synthesized by click
chemistry. When triggered by light, proton, and metal ions, the diarylethene can be used as …

Three new rhodamine Schiff base sensors 1a–1c have been designed and synthesized as
highly sensitive and selective “off-on” chemosensors for Cu2+ detection via the rhodamine …

A novel rhodamine based probe has been synthesized as an “off–on” chemosensor for
Fe3+. Upon coordination with Fe3+, the probe displayed good brightness and fluorescent …

Nucleic acid fluorescent probes are playing increasingly important roles in biological
sensing in recent years. In addition to the conventional functions of single-stranded …

In this review, we summarize the recent advances in the use of pyrene-modified
oligonucleotides as a platform for functional nucleic acid-based constructs. Pyrene is of …

N 6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most abundant epigenetic modifications on mRNA.
It is dynamically regulated by the m6A demethylases FTO and ALKBH5, which are currently …
