Abstract
We designed P1G3, a light-triggered NO donor from N-nitroso-naphthalene derivatives, releasing NO via N–NO cleavage while producing fluorescent P1G2 for real-time tracking. The quantity of NO released from P1G3 in the cytoplasm can be precisely regulated by light duration and light intensity, thereby minimizing the risk of unintended self-leakage in biological settings. Utilizing a quantitative mapping relationship between nitric oxide release and fluorescence intensity, we calculated for the first time the nitric oxide conversion rate of a donor system in a cellular environment. Both a method for nitric oxide quantification is proposed and the stable conversion efficiency of this donor is demonstrated. In Arabidopsis thaliana, P1G3 successfully induced Ca2+ accumulation in guard cells and triggered the gradual closure of stomata, demonstrating spatiotemporal-controlled NO delivery for enhanced drought tolerance.
期刊介绍:
Talanta provides a forum for the publication of original research papers, short communications, and critical reviews in all branches of pure and applied analytical chemistry. Papers are evaluated based on established guidelines, including the fundamental nature of the study, scientific novelty, substantial improvement or advantage over existing technology or methods, and demonstrated analytical applicability. Original research papers on fundamental studies, and on novel sensor and instrumentation developments, are encouraged. Novel or improved applications in areas such as clinical and biological chemistry, environmental analysis, geochemistry, materials science and engineering, and analytical platforms for omics development are welcome.
Analytical performance of methods should be determined, including interference and matrix effects, and methods should be validated by comparison with a standard method, or analysis of a certified reference material. Simple spiking recoveries may not be sufficient. The developed method should especially comprise information on selectivity, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, and reliability. However, applying official validation or robustness studies to a routine method or technique does not necessarily constitute novelty. Proper statistical treatment of the data should be provided. Relevant literature should be cited, including related publications by the authors, and authors should discuss how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods.
