We develop fluorescent biosensors toolkits for analysis of  pathways of living cells. Focus is on smart biosensors for high throughput methods. Our biosensor platform consists of Fluorescence Activating Proteins (FAPs) that bind fluorogen dyes with large fluorescence increases. Sensors have been developed to rapidly and selectively track FAP labeled proteins such as GPCRs. This platform is proving promising for developing calcium, pH, sodium, potassium and redox sensors that will emit signals only from investigator-targeted regions of a cell. Sensors for protein-protein interactions and protein modification are in progress. Collaborations drug discovery programs are essential for testing new biosensors and feedback.
