Abstract
In this study, a new type of fluorescence probe, diphenylpyrenylphosphine-conjugated alkyltriphenylphosphonium iodide which was accumulated in mitochondria, has been synthesized. This probe was detected peroxide in living cell. Comparison of the reactivity toward several peroxide indicated that the probe was existed in mitochondrial membrane. Using this probe, generation of peroxide in mitochondria of living cell was successfully visualized.
Graphical abstractDiarylpyrenylphosphine-conjugated alkyltriphenylphosphonium was accumulated in mitochondria, and it detected the penetration or generation of peroxide in a mitochondrial lipid bilayer.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
