Popis: | Fluorescent biosensors for living cells currently require laborious optimization and a unique design for each target. They are limited by the availability of naturally occurring ligands with appropriate target specificity. Here we describe a biosensor based on an engineered fibronectin monobody scaffold that can be tailored to bind different targets via high throughput screening. This Src family kinase (SFK) biosensor was made by derivatizing a monobody specific for activated SFK with a bright dye whose fluorescence increases upon target binding. We identified sites for dye attachment and alterations to eliminate vesiculation in living cells, providing a generalizable scaffold for biosensor production. This approach minimizes cell perturbation because it senses endogenous, unmodified target, and because sensitivity is enhanced by direct dye excitation. Automated correlation of cell velocities and SFK activity revealed that SFK are activated specifically during protrusion. Activity correlates with velocity, and peaks 1–2 microns from the leading edge. |
