Advanced Fluorescent Polymer Probes for the Site-Specific Labeling of Proteins in Live Cells Using the HaloTag Technology.

ACS omega | 2019

We report the site-specific and covalent bioconjugation of fluorescent polymer chains to proteins in live cells using the HaloTag technology. Polymer chains bearing a Halo-ligand precisely located at their α-chain-end were synthesized in a controlled manner owing to the RAFT polymerization process. They were labeled in lateral position by several organic fluorophores such as AlexaFluor 647. The resulting Halo-ligand polymer probe was finally shown to selectively recognize and label HaloTag proteins present at the membrane of live cells using confocal fluorescence microscopy. Such a polymer bioconjugation approach holds great promises for various applications ranging from cell imaging to cell surface functionalization.
