ZIGIR, a Granule-Specific Zn2+ Indicator, Reveals Human Islet α Cell Heterogeneity
Summary: Numerous mammalian cells contain abundant Zn2+ in their secretory granules, yet available Zn2+ sensors lack the desired specificity and sensitivity for imaging granular Zn2+. We developed a fluorescent zinc granule indicator, ZIGIR, that possesses numerous desired properties for live cell i...
