pHLARE: A Genetically Encoded Ratiometric Lysosome pH Biosensor
2020-06-04
Abstract excerpt
Many lysosome functions are determined by a lumenal pH of ~5.0, including the activity of resident acid-activated hydrolases. Lysosome pH (pHlys) is increased in neurodegenerative disorders and predicted to be decreased in cancers, making it a potential target for therapeutics to limit the progression of these diseases. Accurately measuring pHlys, however, is limited by currently used dyes that accumulate in multi...
