A RNA-Targeted Two-Photon Bioprobe with High Selective Permeability into Nuclear Pore Complexes for Dynamically Tracking the Autophagy Process among Multi-Organelles.

Dynamic tracking of the spatiotemporal coordination among various organelles to in-depth understanding of the mechanism of autophagy have attracted considerable attention. However, the monitor of nucleoli participation in autophagy was somehow neglected. Herein, we report a RNA-targeted bioprobe (ADAP) with high selective permeability into nuclear pore complexes, which induced a two-photon (TP) fluorescence "off-on" response by groove combination with RNA, dynamically monitoring the autophagy process among multiorganelles (nucleoli, mitochondria, and mitochondria-containing lysosomes). This work provides a simple and convenient way to observe the dynamic behavior of multiorganelles during the autophagy process, which benefits the understanding of cellular metabolism.
