Fluorogenic RNA Mango aptamers for imaging small non-coding RNAs in mammalian cells
Many aptamer-fluorophore complexes suffer from low quantum yield and low extinction coefficients limiting their usability. Here the authors isolate new Mango aptamers with improved fluorescent properties for both fixed and live-cell imaging by using competitive ligand binding microfluidic selection.
