Photoactivatable rhodamine derivative functionalized with a PEG azide. The azide functionality can be used to conjugate this caged rhodamine to alkyne or cycloalkyne containing compounds or biomolecules using the azide-alkyne cycloaddition click chemistry reaction. The ortho-Nitroveratryloxycarbonyl (NVOC) cages can be removed upon irradiation with UV light, restoring the fluorescence of the base dye. NVOC has an absorption max at ~350 nm and has been shown to be cleaved at 350 nm, 405 nm and 420 nm.
An amine-reactive caged rhodamine was synthesized and conjugated to aminodextran. The resulting tracer was injected into a single cell zebrafish embryo, and a portion of the tracer was photolyzed in a single cell after development. The resulting fluorescent cell was
