Outline of Research at the Start |
Quantification of cellular GTP as an important metabolite in cellular metabolism will provide us the information to comprehend the energy status of cells. Here, we aim to develop a single fluorescent protein (FP)-based fluorescence lifetime biosensor for quantitative imaging of intracellular GTP level with fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), denoted as FLIM-GTP. Using FLIM-GTP, we aim to quantify the GTP level in different cell types between normal and cancer cells, and to investigate the regulation function of GTP and heat production in brown adipocytes.
