An optimized fluorescent probe for visualizing glutamate neurotransmission

An optimized fluorescent probe for visualizing glutamate neurotransmission

We describe an intensity-based glutamate-sensing fluorescent reporter (“iGluSnFR”) with signal-to-noise ratio and kinetics appropriate for in vivo imaging. We engineered iGluSnFR in vitro to maximize its fluorescence change, and validated its utility for visualizing glutamate release by neurons and...
