Research Abstract |
A series of near-infrared fluorescent probes was designed based on the concept of emission control caused by interdye excitonic interaction. The fluorescent probes showed very weak emission in the unhybridized state, whereas they emitted near-infrared fluorescence after hybridization with the complementary nucleic acid. The hybridization-dependent switching of fluorescence emission made it possible to monitor mRNA in a human cell in the range of near-infrared wavelengths.
