A 1,8-naphthalimide-derived fluorogenic probe was reported to label SNAP-tag fusion proteins in living cells. The probe can rapidly label a SNAP-tag and exhibit a fluorescence increase of 36-fold due to the additive effects of environment sensitivity of fluorophores and inhibition of photo-induced electron transfer from O6-benzylguanine to the fluorophore. The labeling of intracellular proteins has been successfully achieved without a wash-out procedure.
