  • Aggregation-induced emission luminogen having an peptide sequence and its uses thereof
    Patent number: 9835558
    Abstract: A fluorescence molecular probe having a hydrophilic polypeptide backbone conjugated with a hydrophobic alkyl chain and a function group with aggregation induced emission is disclosed. The hydrophilic peptide sequence renders DNA binding capacity and the hydrophobic alkyl chain provides capacity for embedding within cell membrane. The aggregation induced emission renders real time tracking for live cell function studies. The synthesis of the probe is simple and easy for purification.
    Type: Grant
