TBI
TBI is a fluorescence enhancer with a Kd of 71 nM for the Broccoli fluorogenic RNA aptamer. TBI binds to the Broccoli fluorogenic RNA aptamer to activate its fluorescence.TBI undergoes photobleaching of its trans form, which dissociates rapidly, while cis-TBI from the media replaces the dissociated fluorophore to enable fluorophore recycling.TBI enables enhanced fluorescence of Broccoli during continuous cellular imaging (Ex/Em = 485/527 nm).

Biological Activity
TBI (0.5 μM) binds purified Broccoli RNA to produce a complex with a red-shifted excitation spectrum, high quantum yield, and more than 13,000-fold fluorescence enhancement relative to free TBI[1].
TBI binds purified Broccoli RNA with high affinity, having a Kd of 71 nM, comparable to BI and significantly higher than DFNS[1].
TBI (10 μM; 1 h) exhibits low background fluorescence in HEK293T cells and induces high fluorescence specifically in cells expressing the Broccoli RNA aptamer[1].
