A disulfide bound-molecular beacon as a fluorescent probe for the detection of reduced glutathione and its application in cells

Abstract

A disulfide-bound molecular beacon (MB) is reported to respond sensitively to changing levels of glutathionein vitro. Importantly, this successful application of a MB has exciting potential for monitoring cellular thiol.
