NBD-Based Environment-Sensitive Fluorescent Probes for the Human Ether-a-Go-Go–Related Gene Potassium Channel

Three environment-sensitive probes were developed for the hERG channel based on the nitrobenzoxadiazole fluorophore herein. After careful evaluation, probes M1 and M3 were found to have a high affinity for imaging the hERG channel in the cell-based experiment. Compared with other fluorescent labelin...
