Photorelease of GABA with visible light using an inorganic caging group

Photorelease of GABA with visible light using an inorganic caging group

We describe the selective photorelease of γ-amino butyric acid (GABA) with a novel caged-GABA compound that uses a ruthenium complex as photosensor. This compound (“RuBi-GABA”) can be excited with visible wavelengths, providing greater tissue penetration, less photo-tox...
