The pH map of intracellular organelles with SITE-pHorin (IMAGE)
Caption
The illustration is a summary map of the organellar pH measured with a single pH-sensitive probe, SITE-pHorin, which possesses an ultra-pH sensitivity enhanced by the quantum entanglement effect. As illustrated, the nucleus, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi substacks, the peroxisome, the lysosome, the endosomes, and the mitochondrial subcompartments were labeled with the peaks and standard deviations of their pH measurements. Pseudocolors were used to match the intracellular pH gradients.
